Caleb Plant doesn’t quite understand any of it.
Before any big boxing matchup, trash talk and various barbs traded from both fighters is seemingly routine to garner attention and build anticipation.Except when Plant is involved, it always seems to be different.
The 30-year-old Plant dispatched Anthony Dirrell via ninth-round KO to improve to 22-1 at Barclays Center in his most recent bout in October,Dirrell on multiple occasions said he’s long “hated” Plant and that the rest of the fighters in the super middleweight division despise him personally. In a rivalry that’s been building for years, Plant perhaps shares more animosity with Benavidez than he has with any other opponent.
“But then when it became over the line, the point of no return for me, is when his dad started speaking about my daughter. And just making certain comments about me and her. When men go off to war, a lot of times they leave women and children at home. That’s like a point of no return for me.” They both rose to the top of the super middleweight rankings, and the contempt for one another has only risen in anticipation of the fight.
