“You Can’t Break a Poor Boy’s Chin” – Caleb Plant Delivers a Strong Message to Canelo Alvarez
Following a successful win over Billy Joe Saunders, Canelo Alvarez can lock horns against IBF super middleweight champion Caleb Plant. However, Plant seems to have fixed his aim at Alvarez already.
The undefeated IBF titlist had his last fight in January against Caleb Truax and has been active in recent times with a record of 21-0. However, he would seemingly be the underdog against Canelo Alvarez. The P4P king has had three fights in a span of 6 months. Thus, he can rightly be the favorite over Plant.
However, Caleb Plant has sent a stern message to the Mexican great and hasn’t hesitated to bill his superiority. He has posted a picture of his latest in-ring encounter with Truax via social media, just after Alvarez won the battle against Saunders.
In the caption. ‘Sweet Hands’ Plant wrote, “You can’t break a poor boys chin, that’s warriors code. THERE ARE THINGS I FEAR BUT I PUT IT ON MY LAST BREATH AND SOUL THAT MEN AREN’T ONE OF THEM.”
