Jose Armando Resendiz says he knows what he has to do for him to “disarm” the temporary champion of the WBA Super Middle Category Caleb ‘Sweethands’ plant and defeated it this Saturday, May 31, at their main event in 12 rounds in Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas.
Resendiz (15-2, 11 ko) will have to take out the page from David Benavidez to beat Plant (23-2, 14 ko), because he has to put a lot of pressure on him from the beginning. This would also help to have a strong inner game, as it is likely to be a plan B plant if it starts taking a penalty in the central ring.
Caleb, 32, is now conceived as an internal altercation after throwing Trevor McCumby in the ninth round of last September. McCumby lowered the plant in the neighborhood and looked like he was on his way to the knockout victory. The plant was taken inside from the inside and beat up McCumby.
“The plant is an incredible fighter, one of the elites in 168, but it motivates me even more. It makes me so happy, because when you beat someone like that, it makes that victory even more,” Jose Armando Resndiz said to The Mediadiscussing his fight against the Caleb plant this Saturday night in Las Vegas.
Assessment of the elite status of plants
Resndiz is too free to plant. He is not an “amazing fighter” and is definitely not an elite in a super middleweight category. His record is 2-2 in the last four fights, which is not a biography at the elite level. If Plant was an elite, he would have entered into this fight with a record 4-0 in the last four fights and should not tweak it.
“You can talk hard outside the ring, but once you step into ropes, then it’s a completely different job,” Resandiz said, responding to him that he was told that the factory would tell him that he would “step on him.” “I don’t care what people say about me, because in the end I will prove myself as a fighter inside the ropes. In the end, that’s all that matters to me.”
Plant’s victories over 39-year-old Anthony Dirrell and a candidate for the edge at the bottom of Trevor McCumby went to his head, making him believe he had the opportunity to go through anyone in the great medium weight division. He is not such a talent and has never been. The plant is a boxer with a beard problem and a bad gasoline tank. Management of Plant management suggests that they are aware of his flaws.
So, they will protect him as much as they can, hoping to keep him long enough to bless Canelo Alvarez for a rematch. Because of this, Jermall Charlo is lined up as a herbal next opponent, not one of the young candidates who would be a problem for him.
“I believe in myself. I believe in the job I did, and not only can I do everything, but I can do more. In the end, I know that I can disarm the plant in the way he can be disarmed. We will be ready for everything that comes to me during the fight,” Resndiz said.
The only way to beat the plant is the pressure on it, throwing a lot of power blows, not letting it rest. The ‘Sweethands’ plant has always had a bad engine, and he fought when he was put under a gun at a six hard circle in the first half of his fights.
Resendiz is fighting beyond its usual medium weight weight and does not possess the same technical ability as a caleb. However, he is six years younger and has a lot less mileage. It is also more active than Plant, which has slowed his career since he picked up a big $ 10 million Payday, Canelo Alvarez, four years ago in 2021.
The plant has the same motivation for the second salary against Canel as Edgar Berlang. So now he’s fighting for the wrong reasons. Now the money is hungry. You can call it a gold fever.
