00:00Tocco los cuantos, buenos sueños.
00:02Plant told us he's too strong, too fast, and too slick for Resendiz.
00:09Resendiz would love to spoil the plans of that grudge match.
00:13Plant versus Jamal Charlo, who just picked up a win over Thomas LaManna.
00:19This is your main event, and this is round number one.
00:23And remember, against pressure fighters, Plant's already selective punch output tends to dip, Ryan.
00:34No question about that.
00:36You have to see early on whether Resendiz can cut through, get inside that jab,
00:41really try to make Plant uncomfortable, and let him know this is going to be a lot harder than he might expect.
00:46It'll be interesting again, since teaming up with Bretman Edwards, both wins have come by way of knockout,
00:52and what we saw is, after mentioned, the adjustment he made against Trevor McComby in his last fight,
00:57overcoming early on Resendiz, including a shoulder-shock punch knockdown.
01:02He maneuvered McComby to the ropes, became an inside brawler,
01:06working the body and head with combinations before stopping McComby while still on his feet.
01:12It will be interesting to see if Plant shows some of that dog at him here tonight, After.
01:16Yeah, I mean, I think once the pressure starts from the Sandys,
01:20you're going to see that out of Plant, but right now being smart with the jab, the stick,
01:26keeping Resendiz at bay.
01:28Yeah, and he's also a very effective counterpuncher.
01:31He would love to lock Resendiz into a counterpunch with Resendiz's pressure,
01:35but Resendiz right now very cautious, very respectful of the former 168-pound champion.
01:42Body shot by Resendiz.
01:44We mentioned Resendiz looking the part this week of a main eventer, the confidence, the swag.
01:50Kind of looks like a young Mario Lopez, a huge boxing fan, in his own right as well,
01:54but will that translate to winning rounds and hurting Caleb Plant as they feel each other out in the first round?
02:02It was more for Resendiz taking this round off, trying to figure out what Plant brings,
02:06and Plant doing exactly what he's supposed to do against a fighter that's in front of him.
02:10The jab, lateral movements, and waiting for Resendiz to come in and catch him with his straight right hands.
02:15There it is.
02:16Resendiz eating that right hand.
02:19Plant splitting the guard.
02:23Plant on the back foot.
02:27And that's another thing.
02:28Resendiz does not have the best defense out there.
02:30He gets hit a lot.
02:32So we hope to see that Plant, you know, explode.
02:35And so does Plant.
02:35Opponents have found success landing 35% of their power shots,
02:39and we would like to see if Resendiz can exploit that stat because, as we mentioned,
02:44against pressure fighters, Plant's on what can dip.
02:47But he remains composed, calculating, and fully focused.
02:50And Brian, his mental fortitude second to none.
02:53Just a gritty, tough, adaptable fighter inside of there.
02:58Fights with the veteranship, maturity, but also he can gut it out when he has to.
03:02When we talked about Resendiz's pressure, I'm not alarmed at how slow he started the fight
03:07because it really is in the championship rounds where Resendiz might have the potential
03:11to have the biggest effect on walking Plant down and not working.
03:15Yeah, and he's a fighter that can pick it up any given round.
03:17But right now, he's in the squadron, which is just fighting from the outside.
03:21Cable Plant.
03:27Come on, give me the baggies with the ice in it.
03:29Nice and easy, right?
03:35One's it.
03:35I got you.
03:36I'm going to put some water right here.
03:40How you feel?
03:41Everything good, right?
03:42Listen, you rushing your big stuff to her.
03:44You remember that stick?
03:45Remember we talked about not showing him too much early?
03:48You okay?
03:49Everything's good.
03:50Everything's good.
03:50Just keep changing levels.
03:52Keep changing levels.
03:53Go straight shots to the body.
03:54Don't show him too much.
03:56Hit the closest thing to you.
03:58If you've got to win this fight with four rounds of a jab,
04:01then win the fight with four rounds of a jab.
04:02You don't have to do nothing extra.
04:04You hear me?
04:05All right.
04:06We up 10-9.
04:07We up 10-9.
04:09We up 10-9.
04:10We up 10-9.
04:11No!
04:13We up 10-9.
04:14We up 10-9.
04:15We up 10-9.
04:15We up 10-9.
04:16We up 10-9.
04:16We up 10-9.
04:21We up 10-9.
04:23Kosh is opening three minutes.
04:25Plot landing 4 of 32.
04:27Resendiz 2 of 13, neither landed a power shot.
04:31Interesting for all the CompuBox numbers that support
04:42Resendiz being the pressure fighter
04:44He's really trying to make Plant take the lead here
04:47And he's settling into almost a counter-punching role early on
04:49Yeah, and Plant's doing that
04:52Exactly on cue what Dakota told him
04:55It looks like it's the game plan
04:57You know, wait for Resendiz to come in
04:59Catch him with the overhand rights
05:01Counter-punching and not do, you know, more than that
05:04If we have to win 12 rounds just doing that
05:06We can the corner set
05:08But again, I want to see Plant invest a little bit to the body as well
05:12Plant's a very effective body puncher above the division average
05:18Yeah, you definitely want to invest to the body
05:25Breakdown Resendiz because there is going to come a time
05:27Where Plant is going to fight in the inside
05:30Or not according to Predman
05:35As you mentioned, right?
05:36If he wins 12 rounds with the job, so be it
05:39Doesn't want to show him too much too soon
05:41He said there's a body shot by Resendiz
05:43It all comes down to Resendiz
05:45The pressure, the body
05:46And you're not seeing that from Resendiz when he's only going to play it
05:48And it's going to start us actually knowing the magnitude at the moment
05:52A more cautious start by Resendiz does not surprise me at all, to be honest
05:57As we talked about it, there is a vulnerability to plant
06:00Like we saw in the Benavidez fight
06:02Who's caught to win for the world title
06:04It's that late, you can put that pressure on against him
06:06But you've got to get there
06:08And you've got to have done something on the journey to getting there
06:11But we're seeing a little uptick in that pressure from Resendiz here in round two
06:15Yeah, can't get in
06:16No jab behind the pressure from Resendiz
06:19We talked about Jamal Charlo having one of the best jabs in the sport
06:22While Caleb Plant has a very solid jab as well
06:25Especially when he's countering off there with that quick checkup
06:28With the left hand and he goes to the body there
06:30Under a minute left here in the second
06:33That's been the night of the jabs, right?
06:36Hernandez, Charlo, and now plants
06:39A lot of feeling out still here in round two
06:50Yeah, how about those kicks
06:55I'm Caleb Plant
06:56Inspired by the original Air Jordans
06:59Sweet hands, sweet feet
07:00That clans to the shoe surgeon
07:02Doesn't want to spend too much time along the road
07:23Resendiz trained by Matty Roplas
07:30There you go
07:36Good round, good round, not a bad round, you gotta pick up the rhythm, he didn't like the body, when he sticks that jab out there, you push it down with your left hand, and then hit it over and right, or hit him with the uppercut underneath, take that lead hat away.
08:06Shadows, stairs, down stairs, for a straight right hand to the body, for the radio punches, okay, let's go, only third round, let's go.
08:20Lance trainer, Steven Bretman Edwards saying, hey, you look good, but don't be cocky, I want more straight shots to the body.
08:27Got to take that fight out of the ball if you can early, so smart strategy with Plant with those pinpoint right hand pot shots down low.
08:37Sharp jab by Plant to start round three.
08:45Double jab by Plant, upstairs and downstairs, changing levels with it.
08:49Just a really educated jab from Plant, not a powerful jab, just a set it up, jab, to stick.
08:58Ebner, even when Plant's at his best, it's a lot of movement, a lot of circle on the way, do you think there's anybody, Ray Cendiz, that is hoping to use that against him, tire him out?
09:07Really, I mean, Kermit is known to do it.
09:10He moves the ring really well, he waits for the right moment.
09:14I think he's just going to come down to a point where he's going to be able to counter easy with Resendiz.
09:18Left, landed, a lead left hook to the body.
09:21Right hand bounce stops the high guard of Resendiz, but Resendiz unable to get on track, unable to put that pressure together and throw a lot of punches thanks to the jab and the movement of Plant as we expected.
09:33Exactly, the lateral movements that Plant is doing.
09:36He's not doing a lot or too much movement, just enough to get you on a different side and angle to shoot your shots.
09:44Here's what's up, please, guys.
09:46Come over it.
09:47Let's go.
09:52Quick, quick.
10:01Still need Resendiz to commit to it here, to really start to put the foot on the gas and maybe try to echo a little bit of the success Travis Kornke had by being aggressive in that ice fight for Caleb Plant.
10:12and tried to catch him early and really changed the momentum.
10:15Yeah, McCombie Buss played around two,
10:18dropped him in round four,
10:19albeit a flash knockdown with a shoulder shot,
10:21but he was unorthodox.
10:23He lunged it.
10:24Oh, his combination of Buss around the place.
10:28Left hand by Resendez.
10:30So his best splinters of the fight.
10:32It is when you let your hands go
10:34is when you're going to do damage.
10:36Resendez needs to do that.
10:38Push Plann back.
10:39Plann is not to go straight back,
10:41so you've got to follow up with one or two pitches
10:43just like Resendez did.
10:45Resendez with a boisterous fan base here in Las Vegas.
10:52There he is.
10:52But Resendez leads another combination.
10:56Now Resendez beating his way.
10:58Plann tied him up.
11:00Resendez trying to roughhouse him a little bit in there.
11:03That was a nice run by Resendez.
11:07There's a check-up to pick again by Plann.
11:09Plann takes to the body with that left.
11:13There's the body.
11:14Worked stoppers.
11:14Sendez on this tracks.
11:30All right.
11:32With a little jab.
11:33And that's what he did he put his hands out slowly back feeling comfortable he caught an
11:58overhand left there and here's another look at it it was a straight left going backwards not a lot of
12:06power behind that but enough to get plant's attention but this overhand right was just on cue
12:12perfect time overhand right right when plant was trying to get out of trouble he found trouble
12:19and he got hit right in the chin coming into this fight resendi's signature victory was an upset
12:2610th round tko against the comebacking former unified 154 pound champion jared hurd a fight
12:33contested at middleweight back in march of 2023 larry hazard has an unofficial scorecard he has
12:38planned ahead 29 28 gave the last round to resendi's yeah the eye-catching punches definitely were from
12:47resendi's closing out the rack the brown nice left hook curled around the high guard by plant
12:53starting to see the swagger of resendi's return the activity started to pick up as he's sitting down
13:10these shots and we noticed you know watching plant uh fight for plant and sometimes he tires out so much
13:18that you know it's a mental thing there's times where the fighters not even pressuring him
13:22all right and he's he's back in his sacros he can't do that in this fight and sometimes he can be
13:28over overthinking ridiculous like even in those moments right there you you are giving the moment the
13:37space and the right place he's glad you're shot for plant and he does not pull the trigger
13:43quick quick
13:43quick
13:44no point to fight at the time
13:46quick quick
13:46quick quick
13:47there's our left hand to the value by plant resendi's coming forward
13:52the behind the high guard that eats the jack now back on the right there is a crunch
13:57quick quick
13:59just pulling out just a little bit of that gas tank taking a little bit from it with every left
14:03ball continues to meet resendi's with body shots as resendi's comes forward beautiful body shot from
14:10by plant now we're committing one good body shot oh then he's out of it right hand by plant
14:15you see the abrasions on the nose of plant almost look like maybe a cup was opened up on the bridge
14:20here comes resendi's though there's the jab i'm seeing the jab a lot more from resendi's and he's backing plant up
14:29you know he said he said this week his plan is to pull this upset tonight and then it's he that wants to fight jermal charlo next and continue to climb that ladder in this 168 part division
14:47there was a moment there for resendi's where he's gonna take in you know advantage of that moment and throwless punches
14:57both of them trying to get the other to bite opening up a counter punch opportunity
15:01jab to the body by plant and they crunch again under 20 seconds left in the fourth
15:06so they open up that hitch you got me i need a little bit more thanks there's anything going on out there i should know it's easy right
15:18so that open up that hitch you got me i need a little bit more facts is anything going on out there i should know it's easy right
15:34out there should know it's easy right all right i need a little bit more thanks for that hitch okay
15:45start throwing the straight right hand to the body not around right here
15:47a straight right hand to the body you hear me at the agenda straight right hand to the body
16:00everything good right all right
16:05yep keep using your jabs and keep being smart keep using your jabs and keep being smart all right
16:13you're going in around five we are four or three you know coming into this fight resendi's average
16:1969 punches around in his past five fights tracked by compu box he's he's landing a much way under 30
16:26so far in this in this fight maybe starting to pick up steam but through the first four rounds we've
16:33seen a deceleration in his offensive output yeah we're gonna have to start to see a little bit
16:38more than just a jab for plants he's got to get resendi's respect attention because it seems like
16:43resendi's about to start picking it up and turn it into a different gear seems to align with what red
16:49man edwards is really pushing caleb to come off of that jab with that straight right to the body
16:55constantly forced for send these into resetting and slowing down his momentum
16:58see even that shuffle right there bouncing around that's what tires you yeah spending unnecessary
17:08energy unnecessary energy for blasts going to the body just like his trainer
17:13it's a smart strategy here but when you're caleb planning you're really a versatile fighter and
17:22he's proven that since uh adding red man edwards to his corner with his father richie if you're
17:28but at the same time you don't want to stay too long in the areas that that
17:33race and these has the best opportunity to score and that's certainly on the inside
17:46yeah you might want to start boxing now if you're playing and he's doing that right there
17:50nice one two three get out of house way step to the side not straight back
17:55that's a body shot by resendi's see if i can hurt plant definitely got his attention
18:09land on his back foot flashes the jab resendi's jabs him upstairs what a beautiful short power
18:17right hand from plant his infighting skills continue to evolve yeah resendi's getting sneaky now getting
18:24some inside punches when they're trying to break
18:30under a minute left in round five scheduled for 12 at 168 pounds
18:37but there was also a right hand landed by resendi's to the body
18:41and resendi's will take one for one the essence of a give and take fighter
18:45this has the potential we're around five but this has the potential to get very interesting
18:57if we're still rolling in the 10th and 11th and 12th and six
19:00and we're on set i'm set
19:06One, two, three, four.
19:11Platt goes to the body.
19:15A great uppercut on the inside by Resendiz.
19:18Platt misses with the left uppercut.
19:21Misses again with the left uppercut.
19:24He's only throwing one shot.
19:25He can't do that.
19:33Better round.
19:34Let me drive, Mati.
19:36Mati.
19:38Way better, Mati.
19:40I have one more pressure now.
19:42Both hands, Salgo.
19:44Both hands, not just one.
19:52If the tree's going to fall, you've got to be consistent.
19:54You've got to break them down.
19:56And here we see a replay
19:58of Resende's body work.
20:00There's a short
20:02left body shot
20:04right there by Resende's.
20:06Those hurt.
20:08Those are sharp, short
20:10body work. And those hurt really
20:12bad. Not a lot of wine
20:14back there, but just enough.
20:18A vocal Mexican contingent
20:20not hand supporting.
20:22Armando Resende's coming off his
20:24best round of the fight.
20:26He went 12 of 52
20:28in round five compared to plant
20:30seven of 45.
20:32And Resende's outlanded plant five
20:34four in the power shot department.
20:36According to our unofficial scorer,
20:38Larry Hazard planned his
20:40ahead 48-47, but he gave
20:42Resende's round number five.
20:44This is round six.
20:48And the pressure now by Resende's
20:50going to the jab.
20:52Resende's going down
20:54stairs to the bottom.
20:56Resende's man taking his time
20:58building together this momentum.
21:00But he's at the midway point of the fight
21:02exactly where he would want to be.
21:04In the fight, landing the bigger shots,
21:06and being the dictator of the terms
21:08at times here now against Flan.
21:10He is coming on.
21:12Resende's team truly did their homework.
21:14He was going to start backing up.
21:16He was going to feel confident
21:18in the first round.
21:20And here comes Resende's.
21:22Way better jab now
21:24on this roster than Resende's.
21:26He's taking plant jab away
21:28by throwing his up.
21:32Another landing at a high percentage thus far.
21:36He's hitting his head and appearing.
21:38Another landing at a high percentage.
21:40He got roaring Resende's.
21:42That's his left hook lands for Platt.
21:44Once again, Caleb Platt on the inside
21:46with those short counter shots,
21:48those hooks.
21:50Really showing the evolution
21:52of the tools that he has offensively.
21:54But again, he has to be
21:56ili.
21:57He stays too long at the walks.
21:58He's waiting too much
22:00to move in the way.
22:02But not throwing punches.
22:04and this pro resendiz crowd is really heating up with every connected punch
22:13and even the ones that don't connect
22:15the momentum totally changed is shifted to resendiz side now
22:20final 60 seconds of the six resendiz coming on
22:26there by plant but it has to be more than just one punch
22:49you gotta let your hands go there's a right hand
22:52let's see if resendiz goes back to some type of looping shots
23:05think of marcos madonna when he backs down floyd mayweather
23:08to the ropes
23:08here comes the tour
23:17and then a combination and resendiz taking over the fight
23:30let's go let's go do it it's all right you okay y'all know
23:35and let's take a look at the punch that rocked caleb plant kind of reminds me of the same
23:55overhand right hand that canela hurt him with beautiful overhand right once not twice
24:01but three times square the left as well that left hook might be his best weapon
24:06what a powerful shot oh yeah he says he loves the right hook but the left hook's money
24:10and he did exactly what he's supposed to do resendiz he followed up
24:15he put the pressure overhand right once twice and there's the left as well
24:20great round by resendiz
24:22last two rounds have been great for resendiz
24:27resendiz with the 13-6 edge and power punches landed in the fifth and sixth rounds
24:36plant going downstairs to kick off round seven
24:41yes he needs to do that he's got to slow down resendiz
24:45there's a counter lift by resendiz and lands on the face of plant
24:49lead left hook calls around the guard and resendiz by plant
24:58but it's awesome results and he continues to back up
25:01it seems like plant is still bothered by that last round
25:06good money got hurt
25:07there's a left hook on the inside by plant in the double jab
25:12absolutely brilliant pinpoint counter puncher for plant here
25:16but it's only one shot guys it's not it's going to take more than just one shot to get resendiz off you
25:22resendiz walking forward plant using the job to try to nullify the attack
25:31official score larry hazard now has the fight even after six rounds as we begin the second half
25:38of the scheduled 12 round super middleweight contest
25:42remember it was caleb plant who made the genius adjustment against trevor mccumbi last time to start working on the inside
25:49it may not be the adjustment he needs in this fight but he needs one because you're seeing resendiz break through that defense consistently
25:56yeah definitely a different second half of the fight in this one than in the mccumbi fight because we see in game resendiz
26:04resendiz goes to the body then upstairs with the left hand keeps marching forward the jab of plant in his face
26:11plant utilizing lateral movement but along the ropes resendiz smothering his offense now closing in there's a left uppercut on the inside by plant
26:19and remember resendiz he couldn't get hooked by the bait of caleb plant to try to learn into those mental
26:26times
26:26under a minute left in the seventh double jab by resendiz resendiz fighting his rhythm in his groove
26:33going to work throwing more punches now
26:36i was telling you guys that there was going to be a time where he was going to have to turn it into a dogfight
26:40and here it is for plant
26:42resendiz has been calm he's been confident all week
26:46and look at the poise for a fighter you could just say he's more of a brawler more rugged
26:51you're seeing skill and placement in here tonight
26:53only
26:54fighter in this fight to throw over 50 punches in a round
26:57oh there's a jab that snapped
27:01plant's head back
27:02jab to the body by resendiz
27:05plant trying to maybe
27:06bait him into a counter trap but resendiz able to smother plant
27:11plant forced to clinch
27:1310 seconds left in round 7
27:15another strong round for resendiz
27:19Listen, this round, you stayed a little bit too long, I don't want that.
27:38You gotta be intelligent.
27:40When you get there, when you get to the inside, you gotta know what you do.
27:46Don't stay there.
27:51When you get in there, you gotta know exactly what you need to do.
27:55Okay, listen.
27:56I'm gonna tell you exactly what you do.
27:59Listen.
28:01When you push the devil, take a side step and land that uppercut.
28:09He's tired.
28:12Listen, but when you get there,
28:15let's work.
28:16Let's work the body.
28:18Downstairs and upstairs.
28:22Redman Edwards in Platt's corner.
28:24Watts planned to use the jab to back up Resendiz.
28:28Not a lot of offense in this fight.
28:30Resendiz landed a fight high.
28:3216 punches in round seven.
28:34Doubling Platt's number in the seventh round.
28:39And our unofficial scorer, Larry Hazard, has Resendiz now ahead in the fight.
28:47And that's the thing Resendiz said about what he learned from the losses that are in his record.
28:51It's that you can lose concentration in key moments, especially when things aren't going your way.
28:56You can see visually that improvement to his game and now he's commanding this fight.
29:03The hands are too low for Platt.
29:05He's pulling straight back with his hands out.
29:07He's going to the body, opening up the counter, laying up top for Resendiz, who's landed a couple of good rights.
29:17He's giving Resendiz an opportunity to land the overhand right.
29:21There it is.
29:22Pick up your hands, Platt.
29:24Jab by Resendiz.
29:27Backing Platt up.
29:28And Platt's are down again for Platt.
29:30Platt's output continues to dim as the pressure picks up.
29:34And it hasn't been all that much anyway throughout the fight.
29:42Here we are in round eight.
29:44Resendiz at landing Platt.
29:46And Resendiz seeing everything that Platt's throwing right now.
29:54He's got the high guard blocking the straight punches that Platt is throwing.
29:58And when Resendiz commits to that heavy jab that he did in the last sequence, that's a weapon for him.
30:03I'd like to see more of that.
30:04Yeah, definitely strong jab by Resendiz.
30:09Right hand lands for Resendiz.
30:11Smart veteran move right there by Resendiz putting all his weight on top of him.
30:18Sure fighters have been Platt's Achilles heel throughout his career.
30:21Even in the big moments, like we said, his breakthrough title win over Jose Uzcategui.
30:26Platt had to show the backbone.
30:2810, 11, 12.
30:29He had to show the backbone in the key rounds.
30:31Dropped Uzcategui in the second and fourth.
30:33But yeah, survived the championship rounds to pull out the win.
30:3745 seconds left in the eighth.
30:42Now they are at close quarters more of a wrestling match here.
30:46Resendiz trying to fight out of the clinch.
30:48Trying to punch out.
30:50Referee Harvey Dock separates him.
30:53Yeah, and his Platt mainly trying to close the gap and trying to hold Resendiz.
30:58Showed right hand.
30:59Another right hand lands for Resendiz upstairs.
31:02Resendiz turns Platt, lands a left and right.
31:07Platt shoving up.
31:10The crowd has rolled.
31:1310 seconds left in round eight.
31:15Resendiz opening up on Kele Platt.
31:18Another huge round for Armando Resendiz.
31:22Don't push your head forward.
31:23It's going to pull down.
31:26All the.
31:27Elmero.
31:28Elmero.
31:29Elmero.
31:30Elmero.
31:31Elmero.
31:32Elmero.
31:45Elmero.
31:46Elmero.
31:47Elmero.
31:49Put your head up to the side, but not forward.
31:52Don't lean in with your head, okay?
31:53You understand?
31:57Listen, they want to take a point away from you.
31:59They're looking for that.
32:00Do not let them do that.
32:08We're going to see a replay of what happened
32:10towards the end of this round.
32:12Abraham White won twice by Resendiz.
32:15The inside work body shots and just turning plants.
32:18And may keep Resendiz his fight.
32:20Harvey Dock has warned Resendiz three times for using his head.
32:25But he's used his head smartly as well with his strategy and game plan.
32:29He's taken over the fight.
32:31And here we are in round number nine.
32:34And that jab has also become an effective weapon for Resendiz.
32:38Yeah, he's back to his jab.
32:40His jab is a power jab.
32:42Plant is a stick trying to keep Resendiz out,
32:44but he's not being effective with it.
32:48Sharp job by Resendiz.
32:53Left uppercut on the inside.
32:55Plant clenches again trying to punch out.
33:00I want to start seeing the adjustments from Plant.
33:07There it is.
33:08The one-two body work.
33:09More body work.
33:10Breath the body to Resendiz.
33:12Slow on down.
33:13That ain't a little dirty.
33:14You've got to be dirty in this fight.
33:16And that's been the key to his success this round.
33:18Particular with the right hand of the body.
33:20Beatleman in his own fight in the inside.
33:25Lead left hook lands downstairs for Plant.
33:28Plant's building some momentum here.
33:30Oh, a right uppercut lands on the inside for Resendiz.
33:34Resendiz, three-punch combination.
33:39And just when Plant was starting to look good,
33:42Resendiz comes back with his own
33:44and reminds him that he's right here to win tonight.
33:47This main event has been compelling.
33:49It is delivered up to this point.
33:51Beatleman! Beatleman! Beatleman! Beatleman!
33:54Beatleman! Beatleman!
33:55Body shots by Resendiz.
34:00Unless Resendiz showed by Tork to the liver by Plant.
34:06Plant sitting down on his punches more this round.
34:09That's a veteran move to slow down the momentum of his opponent.
34:12One, two, three, two, one!
34:15Oh, take.
34:16I thought I was going to take a point away for a second.
34:19You know Plant, two and two in his last four fights
34:22and the two losses to Canelo and Benavides.
34:24Very good for the first four rounds,
34:26but then faded down the stretch.
34:28Resendiz seems to have paced himself for that kind of fight.
34:33Boom!
34:35He would have had that from Resendiz.
34:37There is a reason why Plant chose Resendiz as a spare pervert
34:42for that Canelo fight.
34:44Resendiz resembles Canelo style.
34:47The pressure, the aggression, the volume.
34:50Under a minute left here in the ninth.
34:53And it's yet another big round for Armando Resendiz.
34:58Outthrowing, outlanding, Caleb Plant.
35:05Plant going to the body.
35:07Resendiz responds in kind.
35:09Now Resendiz putting his weight on Plant,
35:11trying to sap even more strength out of his body.
35:14Plant backing up.
35:19Body shot by Resendiz and the jab through the guard.
35:25Resendiz throwing much more than Plant and landing.
35:29Plant is fading.
35:31Yes, he is.
35:32And this has been a heck of an audition at 168
35:34for Resendiz' future hopes.
35:36Win or lose, he's backing the former champion off.
35:39What does it say about Caleb Plant's future?
35:46A huge favorite coming into this fight
35:48against Armando Resendiz.
35:50Look.
35:51Look.
35:52Look.
35:53When there's separation between the rival,
35:55look at the paint and the one, two.
35:58There's separation between the paint,
36:00paint, paint, paint, and the one, two.
36:05And here, we're going to see the headbutts
36:07that Caleb Plant has been complaining about.
36:11And yet, Resendiz being sneaky with that.
36:14Oh, there's really...
36:15The referee has been on top of it, though.
36:18We've seen all these headbutts.
36:20And Resendiz needs to be careful
36:22because they will take a point away from him.
36:26Better in move here.
36:27But he's scoring points with those body shots.
36:29Yeah.
36:33There's a headbutt and a body shot
36:34at the same moment, at the same time.
36:36It's starting to look deliberate in there.
36:38In a point swing at this juncture
36:40the fight could be crucial.
36:41Round 10.
36:42What adjustments does Plant need
36:44to make down the stretch, Brian?
36:46I don't think he can trade on the inside
36:48consistently with Resendiz,
36:49but to slow down the forward momentum,
36:51the pinpoint body shots are a big key.
36:54But you've got to pick up that output at the same time.
36:58Yeah, I want him to throw a lot more straight punches.
37:01One, two.
37:02Turn it into a boxing match.
37:04Hold.
37:05Hold Resendiz.
37:06Turn him.
37:07And just try to win the fight from the outside.
37:09Easier set than done,
37:11with the Resendiz being on top of you.
37:12Roley Romero played spoiler on May 2nd,
37:15upsetting Ryan Garcia
37:17and spoiling his rematch with Devin Haney.
37:19We talked about the opening,
37:21the grudge match on the horizon
37:23between Caleb Plant and Jamal Charlo.
37:25That seems to be slipping away from Caleb Plant here
37:28as we go into the first minute of round number 10.
37:31Can Resendiz close the show with nonstop pressure?
37:38Because when he picks it up, Plant slows down.
37:43That has been a contributing trend here.
37:45And as has been the case throughout Plant's career.
37:49Yeah, a lot of jabs thrown in this round by Resendiz.
37:52No output fading down the stretch.
37:54And there's a short right hand by Resendiz.
38:01Counter right by Resendiz.
38:03There's a right apricot by Plant.
38:06But Plant needs to throw a lot more.
38:09Well, he's faded.
38:11I don't know if he can anymore.
38:13He's more worried about what Resendiz is going to throw.
38:15Don't believe left hand there from Plant there.
38:21I'm liking Resendiz's head movement too in this fight.
38:24Something that we've got to mention.
38:26I've seen in the past fights where he gets hit a lot.
38:28Not in this fight.
38:29Great head movement by Resendiz.
38:30Resendiz leading in every statistical department.
38:38Pot shot right hand blocked by Resendiz.
38:41We've not seen Caleb Plant put together
38:43any fluid combinations.
38:45Be unable to put together
38:46any combinations of any note.
38:48And it's because the countering of Resendiz
38:50leads to back and forth training.
38:52And that's not where Plant wants to be.
38:56Yeah, definitely a lot more power,
38:57a lot more steam behind the punches from Resendiz.
39:00But Plant is trying to keep him away.
39:02Keep him off with that jab.
39:03But not enough.
39:08Pressure is on Plant here to do what he's known for.
39:10Literally and figuratively.
39:11The mid-round, mid-fight adjustment
39:14that changes the momentum of the fight.
39:19Resendiz wearing Plant down with those body shots.
39:22The pressure taking its toll on Caleb Plant.
39:30The jams, the hooks.
39:33It's all Armando Resendiz.
39:35He's thrown 70 punches in round 10
39:38compared to 50 for Plant.
39:40A landing Plant 28-9 in the round.
39:46And the look on Jordan Plant's face says it all.
39:49A look of concern.
39:50I'm not gonna lie to you.
40:03Listen.
40:08Hey, listen.
40:09We need these two rounds.
40:10Okay, kid?
40:11All right.
40:12But don't rush it.
40:13Sit down on your shot.
40:14You don't have to put four or five together.
40:17Put two and three together.
40:20You gotta put two and three together
40:22and break on your hook side.
40:23There we go.
40:24Jab, slide to the hook side, and come back with your hook.
40:27All right?
40:28We got three rounds.
40:29You gotta break down to your right side
40:30because the right-hand time has come from here.
40:32We need these two rounds.
40:33We need these two rounds.
40:35Breadman Edwards desperately saying,
40:37we need these two rounds.
40:38He needs more combinations.
40:41Round number 11.
40:42But unfortunately, that means that he's gonna have
40:44to stay in the pocket.
40:45Major upset alert.
40:49And that's where Resendiz is known to be best.
40:52And it's a big lead on Larry Hazard's unofficial scorecard
41:01for Armando Resendiz.
41:02We told you his signature victory coming in
41:04was when he stopped Jared Hurd
41:07due to a severely lacerated lip.
41:09The only stoppage loss of Hurd's 35 pro career,
41:12and he's on the verge of recording
41:15an even bigger win here tonight
41:18against Caleb Platt.
41:20He's getting a hit.
41:23He's on the right hand.
41:24He's getting a hit.
41:25He's getting a hit.
41:26He's getting a hit.
41:27He's getting a hit.
41:28The front line needs to go on the offensive.
41:32The pressure.
41:33Mountain.
41:40Roddy shot by Resendiz.
41:42Roddy shot by Platt.
41:45And Platt is trying.
41:47Roddy's looking on the other side lands for Resendiz.
41:49What is the constant aggression?
41:52The body from Resendiz in the inside.
41:54Sneaky shots, short shots.
42:00There's a body shot by Plant, but again, single shots,
42:03no combinations, no follow-up with the right hand.
42:06And the pressure continues from Resendiz.
42:10And you see that blood continue to flow from the eyes of Plant.
42:13The damage is piling up.
42:19Resendiz has used his jab effectively here tonight.
42:26Has he ever, yes.
42:28And the first half of 2025 has been about big upset moments
42:32like Rolywood Mira against Ryan Garcia,
42:34or upset performances in a loss,
42:36like Ramon Cardenas against the great Niwa Inouye.
42:39Resendiz adding his name to that equation,
42:42but also announcing himself as a tough out in this division,
42:45which is something that wasn't secure coming into this fight.
42:48Under a minute left in the 11th.
42:51They said Resendiz might be too small for this weight class.
42:55He's showing otherwise.
42:57He's a bull. He's a bull.
42:58He's coming up with a big performance.
43:00Let it go into the body.
43:03Unable to do what his trainer,
43:06Bretman Edwards, wanted him to do.
43:08And that's in large part because of Resendiz's sustained pressure.
43:18It's incredible how much Resendiz is dominating Plant
43:22statistically down the stretch of this fight.
43:25And it goes again to the old story for Caleb Plant,
43:28fading down the stretch.
43:30Against a pressure fighter.
43:31Yeah.
43:32And in this case, Resendiz is proving he belongs in the name,
43:35with the other names who've done that to play.
43:38Ooh.
43:39Oh, counter right by Plant.
43:41Good right hand, kid.
43:50Good right hand, kid.
43:51Good right hand, kid.
43:56Hey, we need this round time.
44:00Last round.
44:01We're going to touch you out.
44:02Listen to me.
44:03Can you fight this round on the bounce?
44:05Can you fight this round on the bounce?
44:06Yes.
44:07Okay.
44:08We need this round, kid.
44:09I'm not going to ever lie to you.
44:10I love you, kid.
44:11We need this fucking round.
44:16You want to be a champion?
44:17You got to close this round.
44:19Behind the paint.
44:20Behind the 1-2.
44:22Listen, of course.
44:23You got to be careful.
44:28Aggression.
44:29But control.
44:30Control aggression.
44:32Control aggression.
44:33That's a man.
44:35Control aggression.
44:36Armando Resendiz's first 12-round fight makes it to the 12th round.
44:41He's on the verge of recording, recording a life-altering victory.
44:51Lance Corner said, we need this round.
44:53I think they need more than just the round.
44:55They need a knockout.
44:56Yes, or a knockout.
44:58Depends how you score it.
44:59There have been close rounds, but there's no doubt this second half has been almost all Resendiz.
45:04Resendiz.
45:05And the rounds of Resendiz have won have been clear-cut.
45:12This is not going to do it for Caleb Plath.
45:14Nope.
45:15Unnecessary jumping there.
45:16Just wasting energy.
45:17Waste that energy throwing punches, Plant.
45:18There you go.
45:19We've also never seen this mature a boxing performance from Resendiz before.
45:29Not on this level.
45:31Body shot by Resendiz.
45:33Yeah, the sharp, great head move inside the butt side by Resendiz.
45:34Making it hard for Plath to land those straight punches.
45:35Resendiz on top of Plath.
45:36Continues to put on the pressure off the front foot.
45:37Goes to the bottom.
45:38We've had left another run at last for Resendiz upstairs.
45:40There's the answer for that to Plath.
45:41There it is.
45:42A one-two.
45:43Move to the side.
45:44Don't stay on the ropes.
45:45Resendiz on top of Plath.
45:46Resendiz on top of Plath.
45:47Continues to put on the pressure off the front foot.
45:50Goes to the bottom.
45:52We've had left another run at last for Resendiz upstairs.
45:58There's the answer for that to Plath.
46:00There it is.
46:01A one-two.
46:02Move to the side.
46:03Don't stay on the ropes.
46:05Resendiz on.
46:08Resendiz on.
46:09Resendiz on.
46:11Resendiz on.
46:12Coming into this fight, would you have thought that Armando Resendiz would have a better
46:22connect percentage than a guy like Caleb Platt, Brian Campbell?
46:25No chance from what we thought we knew coming in here between these two fighters, but that's
46:29why you throw the odds out the window.
46:32When you touch gloves, anything can happen.
46:36And El Toro is making his bid in the super middleweight division.
46:42He's closing the show, guys.
46:45Pressure makes diamonds.
46:47Armando Resendiz shining bright like one here in his first 12-round attraction under the
46:54bright lights of Las Vegas against a former champion in Caleb Platt.
47:00Armando Resendiz 40 seconds away from the biggest win of his career, from the best gift
47:08he can give his child that's weeks away from arriving.
47:14The father-to-be putting it all on the line.
47:2020 seconds left.
47:22He said his secret to pulling the upset was that fatherhood that's coming.
47:33What pride is he showing right now?
47:35An incredible performance by the huge underdog Armando Resendiz.
47:49They go 12 rounds.
47:50They feel it's academic from our vantage point.
48:07We feel the same way.
48:09The numbers indicate that Armando Resendiz should walk out of Las Vegas with the biggest
48:17win of his career.
48:18It's up to the judges at ringside to determine the victor.
48:21Yes, that's the scary part right now.
48:23The numbers don't lie.
48:25And here's exactly.
48:26You know what else doesn't lie?
48:29It's what we saw tonight.
48:30The punches landed.
48:32Caleb Platt started off good.
48:33Landing straight punches.
48:34Boxing.
48:35But it's Resendiz's aggression.
48:37The overhand right many times.
48:39Right in the chin of Caleb Platt.
48:41And when he was backing up, there was times where Caleb Platt was landing vicious bodywork.
48:46Good shots.
48:47Good left hand.
48:48But again, Resendiz had an answer for all of that.
48:51And that was aggression again.
48:53Smart, short body work.
48:56Overhand right.
48:57Overhand left.
48:58Volume.
49:00Sharp right hand.
49:02He was constantly on top of Caleb Platt's left hand.
49:09The constant work from Resendiz.
49:13The beautiful Jeff.
49:17And here are the numbers, Abner.
49:19And they are all in favor of Armando Resendiz.
49:23All right.
49:33Jimmy Lennon Jr. is standing by with the official decision.
49:39Ladies and gentlemen, after 12 rounds of action, we go to the scorecards.
