“Time to Teach the Lesson of Humility!”: Caleb Plant’s ‘Sleepless Nights’ Fires Up Fans Ahead of David Benavidez Fight
Follow Us
Caleb Plant is one of the best super-middleweight boxers in the world. Throughout his entire career, the former champion has only looked vulnerable in his defeat against Canelo Alvarez. But the fighter took his only defeat with class and came back against Anthony Dirrell and secured the PBC knockout of the year. He is now scheduled to square off in his anticipated bout against David Benavidez.
Benavidez is at the top of the cream himself in the division. The two now will throw back in the ring on March 25, 2023, in Las Vegas. Both fighters are former champions and have an impeccable understanding of the sweet science. If that is not enough, both of them have personal grudges about beating the other. Arguably, the fight could be one of the biggest fights of the year.
