Caleb Plant Makes His Intentions Clear About Potential Jermall Charlo Fight
In the world of boxing, where rivalries simmer and grudges fuel the fire of competition, every word, every gesture carries weight. And for Caleb Plant, the desire to settle his long-standing beef with middleweight champion Jermall Charlo burns brighter than ever.
The sparks of their heated rivalry were first ignited back during the Errol Spence Jr. vs. Terence Crawford fight, where Plant famously slapped Charlo backstage, setting the stage for a clash of titans. Since then, the boxing world has buzzed with speculation and anticipation, waiting for the moment when these two warriors would finally meet in the ring.
For Plant, the desire to face Charlo is more than just a quest for victory; it’s a matter of honor and pride. In a recent exchange on social media, Plant seized the opportunity to throw some shade at his rival, responding to a fan’s suggestion that a fight between them would be the “best” for both fighters and fans.
“Never have had to beg me to make a big fight happen,” Plant declared, making it clear that he’s more than willing to step into the ring and settle the score once and for all.
“Never have had to beg me to make a big fight happen.”
Plant declared, “I know everybody else wants to see that and that’s a big fight for boxing. So, you know if it’s going to push the culture forward and push boxing forward, and you know something that excites me? Then I want to be a part of it.”
Despite coming off a defeat against David Benavidez, Plant remains undeterred in his quest for redemption. He has made himself available for the fight, campaigning tirelessly for months to make it a reality. And while rumors of a potential showdown on July 13 have circulated, Plant’s head coach, Stephen Edward, was quick to dispel them, stating that as of yet, no such fight has been scheduled.
But for Plant, the desire to face Charlo burns brighter than ever. He knows that their clash would not only captivate fans but also push the boundaries of the sport forward, igniting a passion and excitement that only boxing can deliver.
Stephen Edward, disclosed, “Caleb Plant is not scheduled to fight Jermall Charlo on July 13th. I’m not sure who said that. But if you didn’t hear it from either fighter, don’t believe it. It’s a great match-up. But as of yet, the fight is not done.”
As the world waits with bated breath for the moment when Plant and Charlo will finally step into the ring together, one thing is clear: the fire of their rivalry shows no signs of dimming. And when that long-awaited moment arrives, it will be nothing short of legendary.
