The rest of 2021 has some exciting fights on the boxing calendar. The Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant contest is one high-class war on the list. They will enter the boxing ring for all the super-middleweight titles on the line. But until now, there’s no clarity on the contracts and purses for this epic November 6 collision.
Despite that, the IBF super-middleweight champ, Plant, hasn’t shied away from painting shots at Canelo. A few days back, he took wild verbal digs at the Mexican boxer and his team when Oscar Valdez tested positive for a banned substance.
Recently, Plant, in a chat with ESNEWS, spoke about the pound-for-pound rankings and Alvarez holding the number one spot on the same.

“I don’t know about top-5 but Canelo’s probably right up there number 1. It’s all subjective, you know what I’m saying. It’s an imaginary list but, some people like certain things more, they feel like this guy was better or that guy was better, but he’s up there,” he said.
Plant and Alvarez‘s ultimate aspiration is to cement their legacy as the undisputed king of the 168-pound frame. However, only one among the two can bag that status.
