Caleb Plant Is Embracing the Underdog Role in Title Fight vs. Canelo Álvarez

Caleb Plant knows you don’t think he can beat Canelo Álvarez.

And Plant wants you to know—he really doesn’t care.

“At the end of the day,” Plant says, “the bell still got to ring and we got to let these [fists] do the talking.”

On Saturday, Plant (21–0) will take on Álvarez at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. At stake: the undisputed super middleweight championship. Álvarez (56–1–2) has three pieces of the title, having rapidly collected them over the last 11 months. Plant has the last belt, which is the reason he is here.
