At Errol Spence Jr. vs. Terence Crawford, Jermall Charlo ran into an altercation with Caleb Plant after the former pulled Plant’s “beard real hard“. Despite Plant’s requests, Jermall kept pestering the former IBF-super-middleweight champion as he sat with “an old buddy“. In addition, as Plant later claimed, Jermall even provoked the 31-year-old by calling him a “a b***h ass white boy“. At this, Plant, observing “the right to defend himself“, slapped Jermall Charlo in public.

In the talking course, he suggested a potential fight between his brother Jermall Charlo and Caleb Plant in the ring. In his opinion, by hook or by crook, Jermall must “get his lick back“.
