Caleb Plant Exposes Canelo Alvarez’s Suspicious Behavior

Recently Caleb Plant, the IBF Super-Middleweight champion, called out Canelo Alvarez. And now Plant is set to face Canelo Alvarez in the ring on November 6 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. There, Plant will look to end Alvarez’s unbeaten run and become undisputed.

Recently, Plant appeared on ‘The Last Stand Podcast’ hosted by Brian Custer, where he called out Canelo Alvarez’s suspicious behavior. He said, “Now the first time we was about to fight. For some reason, it kept getting pushed back and pushed back and pushed back.”

“Couldn’t get it done, couldn’t get it done, and we’re six and a half weeks away from the fight and neither one of us had been drug tested once. Now if I was King of the Hill, couldn’t nobody fight me without drug testing for twelve weeks. But he made the people about drug testing one time.”

“Why not? If you’re the king of the hill, people might try to come at you sideways. So why not be vocal about it, why not get people to want to step up and do that, you got the power to do that.” 

Caleb ‘Sweethands’ Plant feels boxers should get drug tests more frequently. While he also said that fighters who use PEDs (Performance-Enhancing Drugs) do it out of fear to hide their insecurities.

Caleb Plant feels confident that he will beat Canelo Alvarez

Going into the fight against Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez, Caleb Plant comes in as the underdog. Most people peg Alvarez to achieve his dream of becoming undisputed. Plant, however, feels extremely confident in his abilities and says he feels more confident than ever going into the fight.

Despite the fearless attitude of Plant, he has never faced an opponent of Canelo Alvarez’s caliber. Alvarez has constantly fought the best, dethroning champs and beating undefeated boxers constantly.

Many fans and experts regard Plant’s title reign as somewhat lackluster, having not fought any real competition. Alvarez will be his first real test. Do you think Caleb Plant will be able to pull off the upset? Or will Mexico receive their first-ever undisputed champion?
