00:00:00Ladies and gentlemen, the time has come.
00:00:05For the main event of the evening, please welcome the boxers as they make their way to the ring.
00:00:10First, here is the battle-ready challenger from Guayabitos, Nayarit, Mexico.
00:00:17Introducing Armando Toro Resendiz.
00:00:30With his first child on the way and his first 12-rounder in front of him, Armando Resendiz steps onto the biggest stage of his career.
00:00:42Yeah, he's been knocked down, he's been counted out, but he's still here, fighting forward, just like always.
00:00:49And tonight, Toro charges in with everything on the line.
00:00:56Yeah, he needs to beat that exactly tonight.
00:00:59A pull, a total pressure Caleb Plant.
00:01:02Press him, put him in deep waters.
00:01:04It's known that Caleb Plant is known to fate in the later rounds.
00:01:08So you want to press on him, work the body, break him down, and be that exciting Mexican style.
00:01:14Throw a lot of punches and punches if you're going to send this big opportunity for him.
00:01:19And it's been all smiles in this fight.
00:01:22He's got a big crowd, we saw at the weigh-in.
00:01:24He's got a lot of people, a lot of family behind him.
00:01:26And they believe him in percentage.
00:01:28And Brian, he told us that, you know, Caleb remembers him from those sparring sessions before the Canelo fight.
00:01:35He says that there was a reason that they took him out of the gym.
00:01:39I heard the exact opposite story from Caleb Plant, but that's how it works in mano-a-mano boxing.
00:01:45But one thing about Racine D's, he may have done his biggest work at middleweight, but he did turn pro as a light heavyweight.
00:01:51He's fought super middleweight weight limit many times earlier in his career.
00:01:55He's going to have no issue from a size standpoint.
00:01:57And he's in the best shape of his career.
00:01:59It's time to stop talking, start throwing.
00:02:02And Caleb Plant, yet to come.
00:02:05And now, ladies and gentlemen, making his way to the ring from Las Vegas by way of Nashville.
00:02:15Here is the two-time and defending super middleweight champion of the world, Caleb Plant!
00:02:24Caleb's sweet hands, Plant fights out of Las Vegas, but his story starts in small town, Tennessee.
00:02:39Shaped by poverty, sharpened by pain.
00:02:42He's buried a daughter, lost his mother, and still found the strength to become a world champion.
00:02:48A slick technician with spite in his gloves, Plant has faced the best.
00:02:53And tonight, yeah, he meets a familiar face.
00:02:55The former sparring partner turned threat.
00:02:58Plant has made it clear to us he has his eyes set on another title run.
00:03:02And his wife, Jordan, expecting their second child and first son in a matter of weeks, serving as even more motivation.
00:03:12And, Mo, you see that RT on the jacket of Plant.
00:03:15That stands for a revenge tour.
00:03:17But it's been a tour the force, as Mo mentioned earlier, of building a fan base at a rapid pace.
00:03:23I hate the cliché, but Caleb Plant is your favorite fighter's favorite fighter.
00:03:28The respect he has earned for the way he handles himself in and out of the ring,
00:03:32the matchups he reaches for, the cuts in persona that he carries.
00:03:38Habner, people come for this, they buy tickets, they respect it.
00:03:42Caleb Plant has earned it the hard way.
00:03:44Listen, Caleb Plant is a complete fighter.
00:03:47Last fight he showed us as well that he can make adjustments during the fight he did against McCombie.
00:03:54And we're coming in knockdown, getting back up, and stopping McCombie with pressure,
00:03:59sitting down on his punches, power shots.
00:04:02He's become a different fighter, Caleb Plant.
00:04:04And yes, it's teaming up with Bretman Edwards.
00:04:06Bretman was praised Platt's ability to adapt to a new style under fire,
00:04:10and hinted that Platt hits harder than most think,
00:04:13especially when he decides to sit down on his shots.
00:04:16Four of his last five wins have come by way of knockout.
00:04:21Let's go back inside the center of the ring, and here once again is Jimmy Lennon Jr.

00:07:24now to give instructions, 12 rounds of boxing.
00:07:27It's for the WBA Interim Super Middleweight Championship of the World.

00:07:35The WBA Interim Super Middleweight Championship of the World.
00:07:36The WBA Interim Super Middleweight Championship of the World.
00:07:37The WBA Interim Super Middleweight Championship of the World.
00:07:38The WBA Interim Super Middleweight Championship of the World.
00:07:39The WBA Interim Super Middleweight Championship of the World.

00:07:46The WBA Interim Super Middleweight Championship of the World.
00:07:47The WBA Interim Super Middleweight Championship of the World.
00:07:48Okay, boxers, both trunks are good.
00:08:01We went over the instructions earlier.
00:08:03As a reminder, obey my commands at all times, protect yourself at all times.
00:08:07Touch the gloves, good luck.
00:08:08Toco los cuantos, bueno suerte.
00:08:09Plant told us he's too strong, too fast, and too slick for Resendiz.
00:08:17Resendiz would love to spoil the plans of that grudge match.
00:08:22Plant versus Jamal Charlo, who just picked up a win over Thomas LaMana.
00:08:27This is your main event.
00:08:29And this is round number one.
00:08:31And remember, against pressure fighters, Plant's already selective punch output tends to dip, Ryan.
00:08:42No question about that.
00:08:44You have to see early on whether Resendiz can cut through, get inside that jab,
00:08:49really try to make Plant uncomfortable and let him know this is going to be a lot harder than he might expect.
00:08:54It'll be interesting again since teaming up with Bretman Edwards, both wins have come by way of knockout.
00:09:00And what we saw, as Aker mentioned, the adjustment he made against Trevor McComby in his last fight,
00:09:05overcoming early adversity, including a shoulder-shot flush knockdown.
00:09:10He maneuvered McComby to the ropes, became an inside brawler,
00:09:14working the body and head with combinations before stopping McComby while still on his feet.
00:09:20It will be interesting to see if Plant shows some of that dog at him here tonight, Aker.
00:09:25Yeah, I mean, I think once the pressure starts from the sandings,
00:09:29you're going to see that out of Plant.
00:09:31But right now, being smart with the jab, the stick, keeping Resendiz at bay.
00:09:36Yeah, and he's also a very effective counterpuncher.
00:09:39He would love to lock Resendiz into a counterpunch with Resendiz's pressure.
00:09:44But Resendiz right now, very cautious, very respectful of the former 168-pound champion.
00:09:51Body shot by Resendiz.
00:09:53We mentioned Resendiz looking the part this week of a main eventer, the confidence, the swag.
00:09:58Kind of looks like a young Mario Lopez, a huge boxing fan, in his own right as well.
00:10:02But will that translate to winning rounds and hurting Caleb Plant as they feel each other out in the first round?
00:10:08It was more for Resendiz taking this round off, trying to figure out what Plant brings.
00:10:14And Plant doing exactly what he's supposed to do against a fighter that's in front of him.
00:10:18The jab, lateral movements, and waiting for Resendiz to come in and catch him with his straight right hands.
00:10:24There it is.
00:10:25Resendiz eating that right hand.
00:10:28Plant splitting the guard.
00:10:31Plant on the back foot.
00:10:33And that's another thing.
00:10:36Resendiz does not have the best defense out there.
00:10:39He gets hit a lot.
00:10:40So we hope to see that Plant, you know, explode.
00:10:43And so does Plant.
00:10:44Opponents have found success landing 35% of their power shots.
00:10:48And we would like to see if Resendiz can exploit that stat because, as we mentioned,
00:10:53against pressure fighters, Plant's on what can dip.
00:10:55But he remains composed, calculating, and fully focused.
00:10:58And Brian, his mental fortitude is second to none.
00:11:01Just a gritty, tough, adaptable fighter inside of there.
00:11:06Fights with the veteranship, maturity, but also he can gun it out when he has to.
00:11:11And when we talk about Resendiz's pressure, I'm not alarmed at how slow he started the fight
00:11:16because it really is in the championship rounds where Resendiz might have the potential
00:11:20to have the biggest effect on walking Plant down and not working.
00:11:23Yeah, and he's a fighter that can pick it up any given round.
00:11:25But right now, doing the smart guy, which is just fighting from the outside, Cable Plant.
00:11:31Come on, give me the baggies with the ice in it.
00:11:40Nice and easy, right?
00:11:43The one's it.
00:11:44I got you.
00:11:44I'm going to put some water right here.
00:11:48How you feel?
00:11:49Everything good, all right?
00:11:50Listen, you rushing your big step to her.
00:11:52You remember that stick?
00:11:53Remember we talked about not showing them too much early?
00:11:56You okay?
00:11:57Everything's good.
00:11:58Everything's good.
00:11:58Just keep changing levels.
00:12:00Keep changing levels.
00:12:01Go straight shots to the body.
00:12:03Don't show them too much.
00:12:05Hit the closest thing to you.
00:12:07If you got to win this fight with 12 rounds of a jab, then win the fight with 12 rounds
00:12:10of a jab.
00:12:11You don't have to do nothing extra.
00:12:12You hear me?
00:12:13All right.
00:12:14We up 10-9.
00:12:15We up 10-9.
00:12:17We up 10-9.
00:12:20Yo!
00:12:20Kosh is opening three minutes.
00:12:33Plant landing four of 32.
00:12:36Resendiz two of 13.
00:12:37Neither landed a power shot.
00:12:39Interesting for all the CompuBox numbers that support Resendiz being the pressure fighter.
00:12:52He's really trying to make Plant take the lead here and settling into almost a counter-punching
00:12:57role early on.
00:12:58Yeah, and Plant's doing that exactly on cue, what the corner told him.
00:13:03It looks like it's the game plan.
00:13:05You know, wait for Resendiz to come in, catch him with the overhand rights, counter-punching,
00:13:10and not do, you know, more than that.
00:13:12And if we have to win 12 rounds, just doing that, we can, the corner set.
00:13:17But again, I want to see Plant invest a little bit to the body as well.
00:13:22Plant's a very effective body culture above the division average.
00:13:31Yeah, you definitely want to invest to the body, break down percentage, because there is
00:13:35going to come a time where Plant is going to fight in the inside.
00:13:39Or not, according to Predman, as you mentioned, right?
00:13:45If he wins 12 rounds with the job, so be it.
00:13:47Doesn't want to show him too much to Zulis.
00:13:49There's a body shot by Resendiz.
00:13:51It all comes down to Resendiz, the pressure, the body.
00:13:54We're not seeing that from Resendiz and Zulis right now.
00:13:56And that's what expected, such as you know him, the magnitude at the moment.
00:14:01A more cautious start by Resendiz does not surprise me at all, to be honest.
00:14:05As we talked about, if there is a vulnerability to Plant,
00:14:08like we saw in the Benavidez fight, the Uskantiki win for the world title,
00:14:12it's that late.
00:14:13You can put that pressure on against him, but you've got to get there.
00:14:16And you've got to have done something on the journey to getting there.
00:14:20But we're seeing a little uptick in that pressure from Resendiz here in round two.
00:14:23Yeah, can't get in.
00:14:24No jab behind the pressure from Resendiz.
00:14:27We talked about Jamal Charlo having one of the best jabs in the sport,
00:14:30while Caleb Plant has a very solid jab as well.
00:14:34Especially when he's countering off there with that quick checkup with the left hand,
00:14:38and he goes to the body there.
00:14:40Under a minute left here in the second.
00:14:43That's been the night of the jabs, right?
00:14:44Hernandez, Charlo, and now Plant.
00:14:47A lot of feeling out still here in round two.
00:15:01How about those kicks on Caleb Plant?
00:15:04Inspired by the original Air Jordans,
00:15:07Sweet Hands with Faith that connects to the shoe surgeon.
00:15:10Black doesn't want to spend too much time along the road.
00:15:36Resendiz trained by Matty Robles.
00:15:40Resendiz trained by Matty Robles.
00:15:42Resendiz trained by Matty Robles.
00:15:43Breathe in.
00:15:44There you go.
00:15:45Not a bad round.
00:15:47You got to pick up the rhythm.
00:15:52He didn't like the body.
00:15:56When he sticks that jab out there,
00:16:02you push it down with your left hand,
00:16:04and then hit it over and right.
00:16:06Or hit him with the uppercut underneath.
00:16:09Take that lead hat away.
00:16:11Take that lead hat away.
00:16:15Shadow, stairs, down stairs.
00:16:17For a straight right head to the body.
00:16:19Give me valiente.
00:16:21For radio punches, okay?
00:16:23Let's go.
00:16:24Let's go.
00:16:25Let's go.
00:16:26Only third round.
00:16:27Let's go.
00:16:28Lance trainer Steven Bretman Edwards saying,
00:16:30hey, you look good, but don't be cocky.
00:16:32I want more straight shots to the body.
00:16:36Got to take that fight out of the ball if you can early.
00:16:39So smart strategy with Plant with those pinpoint right-hand pot shots down low.
00:16:44Sharp jab by Plant to start round three.
00:16:48Upstairs and downstairs changing levels with it.
00:16:52Just a really educated jab from Plant.
00:16:54Not a powerful jab, just a setting up jab to stick.
00:16:58Even when Plant's at his best, it's a lot of movement, a lot of circle in the way.
00:17:11Do you think there's anybody that is hoping to use that against him, tire him out?
00:17:14Really?
00:17:15I mean, kind of is known to do that.
00:17:17He moves the ring really well.
00:17:19He waits for the right moment.
00:17:21I think he's just going to come down to a point where he's going to be able to counter easy with Resendiz.
00:17:26Right-handed, a lead left hook to the body.
00:17:29That right hand bounce starts the high guard of Resendiz,
00:17:32but Resendiz unable to get on track, unable to put that pressure together and throw a lot of punches
00:17:38thanks to the jab and the movement of Plant as we expected.
00:17:41Exactly.
00:17:42The lateral movements that Plant is doing.
00:17:44He's not doing a lot or too much movement.
00:17:47He's just enough to get you on a different side and angle to shoot your shots.
00:18:08Still need Resendiz to commit to it here, to really start to put the foot on the gas
00:18:13and maybe try to echo a little bit of the success Trevor McComby had by being aggressive in that last fight for Caleb Plant
00:18:20and trying to catch him early and really change the momentum.
00:18:22Yeah, McComby buzz played around two, dropped him in round four,
00:18:27albeit a flash knockdown with a shoulder shot, but he was unorthodox.
00:18:31He's lunged it down.
00:18:32He's a combination that got brought back around the waist.
00:18:35Left hand by Resendiz.
00:18:38So it is best punches of the fight.
00:18:40It is when you let your hands go is when you're going to do damage.
00:18:44Resendiz needs to do that.
00:18:46Push Plant back.
00:18:47Plant is going to go straight back.
00:18:49So you got to follow up with one or two punches, just like Resendiz did.
00:18:52Resendiz with a boisterous fan base here in Las Vegas.
00:18:59Oh!
00:19:00Oh!
00:19:01But Resendiz leads another combination.
00:19:03Now the Resendiz booting against Rayman.
00:19:05Plant tying it off.
00:19:07Resendiz trying to roughhouse him a little bit in there.
00:19:10That was a nice round round by Resendiz.
00:19:14There's a check left hook again by Plant.
00:19:17Oh, Plant kicks to the body with that left.
00:19:20There's the body work.
00:19:21Stoppers.
00:19:22Sendiz on the stretch.
00:19:23You all right, Ray?
00:19:27What a little, a little jab?
00:19:42Okay.
00:19:43Everything good, right?
00:19:44Give me a little jab.
00:19:49Give me a deep, deep, deep, deep breath.
00:19:54All right, let's take a look at Resendi's work in that last round.
00:19:59Yeah, Raymond told him the corner told him don't get cocky.
00:20:02And that's what he did.
00:20:03He put his hands out, pulling back, feeling comfortable.
00:20:06He caught an overhand left there.
00:20:09And here's another look at it.
00:20:11It was a straight left going backwards.
00:20:13Not a lot of power behind that, but enough to get Plant's attention.
00:20:17But this overhand ride was just on cue.
00:20:21Perfect time overhand ride.
00:20:23Right when Plant was trying to get out of trouble,
00:20:26he found trouble and he got hit right in the chin.
00:20:31Coming into this fight, Resendi's signature victory
00:20:34was an upset 10th round TKO against the comebacking
00:20:37former Unified 154-pound champion Jared Hurd.
00:20:41A fight contested at middleweight back in March of 2023.
00:20:44Larry Hazard has an unofficial scorecard.
00:20:46He has Plant ahead, 29, 28, gave the last round to Resendi's.
00:20:52Yeah, the eye-catching punches definitely were from Resendi's.
00:20:56Closing out the right, the ball.
00:20:58Nice left hook curled around the eye guard by Plant.
00:21:05But a shot by Resendi's.
00:21:08His assistant trainer, Akira Hoso,
00:21:10says he's a great body puncher.
00:21:12Starting to see the swagger of Resendi's return.
00:21:16The activity's starting to pick up as he's sitting down on these shots.
00:21:21And we notice, you know, watching Plant, uh, fight for Plant,
00:21:25and sometimes he tires out so much that, you know, it's a mental thing.
00:21:28There's times where the fighter's not even pressuring him.
00:21:30A lot, and he's, he's backing him sapos.
00:21:34He can't do that in this fight.
00:21:35And sometimes he can be over, overthinking.
00:21:38Overthinking, yes.
00:21:39Punches when he should.
00:21:41Like, even in those moments right there,
00:21:43you, you are giving the moment, the space,
00:21:46and, and, and the right place.
00:21:48Land your shot for Plant,
00:21:49and he does not pull the trigger.
00:21:51Quick, quick!
00:21:52Don't break this fight at the time.
00:21:54Quick, quick, stop!
00:21:55There's our left hand to the body by Plant.
00:21:59Resendi's coming forward.
00:22:01Behind the high guard, but eats the jack.
00:22:04Now back on the right, there is a crunch.
00:22:06Plant just pulling out just a little bit of that gas tank.
00:22:09Taking a little bit from him with every left hole.
00:22:12Continues to meet Resendi's with body shots
00:22:14as Resendi's comes forward.
00:22:17Beautiful body shot for Plant.
00:22:19Now we're committing one good body shot,
00:22:21and he's out of right hand by Plant.
00:22:23You see the abrasions on the nose of Plant.
00:22:26Almost look like maybe a cup was opened up on the bridge.
00:22:29Here comes Resendi's, though.
00:22:32There's the jab.
00:22:33I'm seeing the jab a lot more from Resendi's.
00:22:35And he's backing Plant up.
00:22:44You know, Resendi's said this week
00:22:46his plan is to pull this upset tonight,
00:22:48and that it's he that wants to fight
00:22:50Jamal Charlo next, and continue to climb that ladder
00:22:53in this 168-part division.
00:23:00There was a moment there for Resendi's
00:23:02where he's going to take in, you know,
00:23:03advantage of that moment and throwless punches.
00:23:05Both of them trying to get the other to bite,
00:23:07opening up a counterpunch opportunity.
00:23:10Jab to the body by Plant.
00:23:11They crunch again.
00:23:13Under 20 seconds left in the fourth.
00:23:14Oh, he's starting to turn this fight into a bra,
00:23:25Resendi's.
00:23:26Good, good, good, good.
00:23:37I need a little bit more fanks
00:23:39so that opened up that hitch.
00:23:40You got me?
00:23:41I need a little bit more fanks.
00:23:42Is anything going on out there?
00:23:43I should know.
00:23:43No.
00:23:44It's easy, right?
00:23:44Yeah.
00:23:45All right.
00:23:45I need a little bit more fanks for that hitch, okay?
00:23:47Okay.
00:23:47Start throwing a straight right hand to the body.
00:23:55Not a round right hand.
00:23:56A straight right hand to the body.
00:23:57You hear me?
00:23:58FD a jab.
00:23:58A straight right hand to the body.
00:24:09Everything good, right?
00:24:11All right.
00:24:13Yep.
00:24:14Keep using your jab and keep being smart.
00:24:16Keep using your jab and keep being smart.
00:24:19All right?
00:24:21You're going into round five.
00:24:22We got 4-0-3-1.
00:24:25You know, coming into this fight,
00:24:26Resendi's average 69 punches a round
00:24:29in his past five fights tracked by CompuBox.
00:24:32He's landing a much, way under 30 so far in this fight.
00:24:36Maybe starting to pick up steam,
00:24:38but through the first four rounds,
00:24:41we've seen a deceleration in his offensive output.
00:24:44Yeah, we're going to have to start
00:24:45to see a little bit more than just a jab for Plante.
00:24:49He's got to get Resendi's respect, attention,
00:24:51because it seems like Resendi's about to start
00:24:53picking it up and turn it into a different gear.
00:24:56Seems to align with what?
00:24:57Redman Edwards is really pushing Caleb
00:24:59to come off of that jab with that straight right to the body.
00:25:03Constantly forced Resendi's into resetting
00:25:05and slowing down his momentum.
00:25:11See, even that shuffle right there bouncing around,
00:25:14that's what tires you want.
00:25:15Yeah, spending unnecessary energy.
00:25:17Unnecessary energy for Plante.
00:25:20Plante going to the body,
00:25:21just like his trainer, Redman Edwards,
00:25:23wanted to do, Brian.
00:25:24The jab in the right hand.
00:25:25It's a smart strategy here,
00:25:27but when you're Caleb Plante,
00:25:29you're really a versatile fighter,
00:25:30and he's proven that
00:25:31since adding Redman Edwards to his corner
00:25:33with his father, Richie,
00:25:35if you're a colt trainer.
00:25:36But at the same time,
00:25:38you don't want to stay too long in the areas
00:25:40that Ray Sandese has the best opportunity to score,
00:25:43and that's certainly on the inside.
00:25:46And Resendi's coming forward,
00:25:48double jab the right hand to the body.
00:25:49Yeah, you might want to start
00:25:55tossing out your Plante,
00:25:57and he's doing that right there.
00:25:58Nice one, two, three,
00:25:59get out of Haas' way.
00:26:01Step to the side,
00:26:02not straight back.
00:26:05That's a body shot by Resendi's.
00:26:07See if I can hurt Plante.
00:26:10Definitely got his attention.
00:26:17Land on his back foot.
00:26:19Flashes the jab.
00:26:22Resendi's jabs him upstairs.
00:26:24What a beautiful, short,
00:26:25powerful right hand for Plante.
00:26:27His infighting skills continue to evolve.
00:26:31Yeah, Resendi's getting sneaky now,
00:26:32getting some inside punches
00:26:33when they're trying to break.
00:26:38Under a minute left in round five,
00:26:40scheduled for 12 at 168 pounds.
00:26:43Right hand by Plante.
00:26:45But there was also a right hand
00:26:46landed by Resendi's to the body.
00:26:47And Resendi's will take one for one.
00:26:51He'll try.
00:26:51He's the essence of a give-and-take fighter.
00:27:00This has the potential.
00:27:02We're around five.
00:27:03But this has the potential
00:27:04to get very interesting
00:27:05if we start rolling
00:27:07in the 10th of 11th of 12th round.
00:27:09Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.
00:27:12You're on set.
00:27:13You're on set.
00:27:18Go ahead, go ahead.
00:27:19Plante goes to the body.
00:27:23He's running an uppercut
00:27:23on the inside by Resendi's.
00:27:26Plante misses with a left uppercut.
00:27:29Misses again with a left uppercut.
00:27:31He's only throwing one shot.
00:27:33He can't do that.
00:27:41Better round.
00:27:42Give me a towel.
00:27:48Way better round.
00:27:52I have one more pressure now.
00:27:53Both hands out though.
00:27:54Both hands, not just one.
00:28:01If the tree's gonna fall, you gotta be consistent.
00:28:03You gotta break them down.
00:28:06And here we see a replay of Resendiz's body work.
00:28:10There's a short left body shot right there by Resendiz.
00:28:16Those hurt.
00:28:17Those are sharp, short body work.
00:28:20And those hurt really bad.
00:28:22Not a lot of wine back there, but just enough.
00:28:25A vocal Mexican contingent, not hand-supporting.
00:28:31Armando Resendiz coming off his best round of the fight.
00:28:34He went 12 of 52 in round 5 compared to plant 7 of 45.
00:28:40And Resendiz outlanded plant 5-4 in the power shot department.
00:28:44According to our unofficial scorer, Larry Hazard.
00:28:47Planned his ahead 48-47, but he gave Resendiz round number 5.
00:28:52This is round 6.
00:28:57And the pressure now by Resendiz, the javelins.
00:29:00Resendiz going downstairs to the body.
00:29:03Resendiz man taking his time, building together this momentum.
00:29:07But he's at the midway point of the fight,
00:29:09exactly where he would want to be.
00:29:10In the fight, landing the bigger shots,
00:29:12and being the dictator of the terms at times here now against Flank.
00:29:16He is coming on.
00:29:18Resendiz team clearly did their homework.
00:29:21They knew that plant was going to start backing up.
00:29:24He was going to feel confident in the first round.
00:29:26And here comes Resendiz.
00:29:28Way better jab now than this roster, Resendiz.
00:29:31He's taking plant's jab away by throwing his own.
00:29:36No, they're landing at a high percentage thus far.
00:29:44Again, he's hitting it here.
00:29:46The guard warning Resendiz.
00:29:49And the left hook lands for Planned.
00:29:54Once again, Caleb Planned on the inside with those short counter shots,
00:29:58those hooks.
00:29:59Really showing the evolution of the tools that he has offensively.
00:30:04But again, look.
00:30:05He stays strong.
00:30:06Too long.
00:30:07Too long.
00:30:08He's waiting too much right now.
00:30:09But not throwing punches.
00:30:10Exactly.
00:30:11Not throwing.
00:30:12And that's Resendiz.
00:30:13Spotting the punchline.
00:30:14And this pro-Race Indiz crowd is really heating up with every connected punch.
00:30:21And even the ones that don't connect.
00:30:24The momentum totally changed is shifted to the semi-side round.
00:30:30Final 60 seconds of the sixth.
00:30:33Resendiz coming on.
00:30:39Planned's offense has been absolutely muted here in the sixth round.
00:30:44That was probably shot there by Planned.
00:30:54But it has to be more than just one punch.
00:30:57You gotta let your hands go.
00:30:59There's the right hand.
00:31:00Let's see if Resendiz goes back to some type of looping shots.
00:31:13Think of Marcos Maidana when he backs down Floyd Mayweather to the ropes.
00:31:17The elevator for the hill by Rosentis.
00:31:20They build a pole.
00:31:21It is a big open point.
00:31:23Here comes the turn.
00:31:26Rosentis with a hardwood hand and a combination.
00:31:31And Rosentis taking over the fight.
00:31:34And let's take a look at the punch that rocked Caleb Plant.
00:32:01Kind of reminds me of the same overhand right hand that Canelo hurt him with.
00:32:06Beautiful overhand right.
00:32:08Once, not twice, but three times for the left as well.
00:32:12That left hook might be his best weapon.
00:32:14What a powerful shot.
00:32:16He says he loves the right hook, but the left hook's money.
00:32:19And he did exactly what he's supposed to do, Rosentis.
00:32:22He followed up.
00:32:23He put the pressure overhand right once, twice, and there's the left as well.
00:32:29Great round by Rosentis.
00:32:30Last two rounds have been great for Rosentis.
00:32:35Rosentis with a 13-6 edge and power punches landed in the fifth and sixth rounds.
00:32:45Plant going downstairs to kick off round seven.
00:32:49Yes, he needs to do that.
00:32:51He's got to slow down Rosentis.
00:32:53There's a counter lift by Rosentis and lands on the face of Plant.
00:32:58Lead left hook calls in the guard of Rosentis by Plant.
00:33:06But it's awesome results.
00:33:08And he continues to back up.
00:33:10It seems like Plant is still bothered by that last round.
00:33:14Oh, good money punch by Plant.
00:33:16Oh, good money punch by Plant.
00:33:17There's a left hook on the inside by Plant in the double jab.
00:33:21Absolutely brilliant pinpoint counterpunching for Plant here.
00:33:25But it's only one shot, guys.
00:33:27It's not, it's going to take more than just one shot to get Rosentis off you.
00:33:30Rosentis walking forward, Plant using the jab to try to nullify the attack.
00:33:39Our official score, Larry Hazard now has the fight even after six rounds
00:33:45as we begin the second half of the scheduled 12-round super middleweight contest.
00:33:50Remember, it was Caleb Plant who made the genius adjustment
00:33:54against Trevor McCombie last time to start working on the inside.
00:33:57It may not be the adjustment he needs in this fight, but he needs one.
00:34:01Because you're seeing Rosentis break through that defense consistently.
00:34:05Yeah, definitely a different second half of the fight in this one
00:34:08than the McCombie fight because we see in-game Rosentis.
00:34:12Rosentis goes to the body, then upstairs with the left hand.
00:34:15Keeps marching forward.
00:34:17The jab of Plant in his face.
00:34:19Plant utilizing lateral movement but along the ropes.
00:34:22Rosentis smothering his offense now, closing in.
00:34:25There's a left uppercut on the inside by Plant.
00:34:27Rosentis!
00:34:28And remember, Rosentis, he couldn't get hooked by the bait of Caleb Plant
00:34:32to try to lurm into those mental dreams.
00:34:34Under a minute left in the seventh.
00:34:37Double jab by Rosentis.
00:34:39Rosentis fighting his rhythm and his groove.
00:34:41Going to work, throwing more punches now.
00:34:44I was telling you guys that there was going to be a time
00:34:46where he was going to have to turn it into a dogfight.
00:34:49And here it is for Plant.
00:34:51Rosentis has been calm.
00:34:52He's been confident all week.
00:34:54And look at the poise for a fighter.
00:34:56You could just say he's more of a brawler, more rugged.
00:34:59You're seeing skill and placement in here tonight.
00:35:01Only a fighter in this fight to throw for 50 punches in a round.
00:35:07Oh, there's a jab that snapped.
00:35:10Plant's head back.
00:35:11Jab to the body by Rosentis.
00:35:13Plant trying to maybe bait him into a counter trap.
00:35:17But Rosentis able to smother Plant.
00:35:19Plant forced to clinch.
00:35:21Ten seconds left in round seven.
00:35:23Another strong round for Rosentis.
00:35:26Wait, wait, wait.
00:35:28Wait, wait, wait.
00:35:44Listen, this round, you stated a little bit too long.
00:35:46I don't want that.
00:35:47You gotta be intelligent.
00:35:49You gotta be intelligent.
00:35:51When you get there, when you get to the inside, you gotta know what you do. Don't stay there.
00:35:58When you get in there, you gotta know exactly what you need to do. Okay, listen.
00:36:04I'm gonna tell you exactly what you do. Listen.
00:36:09When you push him down, take a side step and land that uppercut.
00:36:15He's tired. Listen, but when you get there, let's work. Let's work the body.
00:36:27Downstairs and upstairs.
00:36:32Redman Edwards in Platt's corner. Watts planned to use the jab to back up Rezendiz.
00:36:37Not a lot of offense in this fight. Rezendiz landed a fight high.
00:36:4116 punches in round seven. Doubling Platt's number in the seventh round.
00:36:48And our unofficial scorer, Larry Hazard, has Rezendiz now ahead in the fight.
00:36:56And that's the thing Rezendiz said about what he learned from the losses that are in his record.
00:37:00It's that you can lose concentration in key moments, especially when things aren't going your way.
00:37:05You can see visually that improvement to his game, and now he's commanding this fight.
00:37:12The hands are too low for Platt. He's pulling straight back with his hands out.
00:37:16He's going to the body, opening up the counter, laying up top for Rezendiz, who's landed a couple of good rights.
00:37:22He's given Rezendiz an opportunity to land the overhand right.
00:37:29There it is. Pick up your hands, Platt.
00:37:33Jab by Rezendiz. Backing Platt up. And Platt's are down again for Platt.
00:37:39Platt's output continues to dim as the pressure picks up.
00:37:43And it hasn't been all that much anyway throughout the fight.
00:37:47Here we are in round eight. Rezendiz a landing Platt.
00:37:59And Rezendiz seeing everything that Platt's throwing right now.
00:38:03He's got the high guard blocking the straight punches that Platt is throwing.
00:38:07And when Rezendiz commits to that heavy jab that he did in the last sequence, that's a weapon for him.
00:38:12I'd like to see more of that.
00:38:13Yeah, definitely strong jab by Rezendiz.
00:38:15Right hand lands for Rezendiz.
00:38:23Smart veteran move right there by Rezendiz, putting all his weight on top of him.
00:38:27I'm sure fighters have been Platt's Achilles heel throughout his career.
00:38:30Even in the big moments, like we said, his breakthrough title win over Jose Uzcategui.
00:38:35Platt had to show the back phone.
00:38:3710, 11, 12. He had to show the back phone in the key rounds.
00:38:40Dropped Uzcategui in the second and fourth.
00:38:42But yeah, survived the championship rounds to pull out the win.
00:38:4645 seconds left in the eighth.
00:38:50Now they are at close quarters.
00:38:54More of a wrestling match here.
00:38:56Rezendiz trying to fight out of the clinch.
00:38:58Trying to punch out.
00:39:00Referee Harvey Dock separates them.
00:39:02Yeah, and it's Platt mainly trying to close the gap.
00:39:06And trying to hold Rezendiz.
00:39:08Showed right hand. Another right hand lands for Rezendiz upstairs.
00:39:12Rezendiz towards Platt lands a left and right.
00:39:18Platt shelling up.
00:39:20The crowd is real.
00:39:22Ten seconds left in round eight.
00:39:24Rezendiz opening up on Kele Platt.
00:39:26Another huge round for Armando Rezendiz.
00:39:30It's time for Armando Rezendiz.
00:39:40That's the last shot.
00:39:42Pull me.
00:39:44Platt left.
00:39:45I got him.
00:39:46I got him.
00:39:47I got him.
00:39:48I got him.
00:39:49I got him.
00:39:50I got him.
00:39:51I got him.
00:39:52Don't put your head forward.
00:39:53Don't put your head forward.
00:39:54Because we're going to take a point away.
00:39:56Just hold on the ground.
00:39:58Put your head to the side.
00:39:59But not forward.
00:40:00Don't lean in with your head.
00:40:01Okay?
00:40:02You understand?
00:40:03Yeah.
00:40:04Listen, they want to take a point away from you.
00:40:07They're looking for that.
00:40:08Do not let them do that.
00:40:14And we're going to see a replay of what happened towards the end of this round.
00:40:20Overhand wide.
00:40:21Once.
00:40:22Wives by Rezendiz.
00:40:23The inside work body shots.
00:40:25And just turning Platt.
00:40:27And making Rezendiz his fight.
00:40:29Harvey Dock has warned Rezendiz three times for using his head.
00:40:34But he's used his head smartly as well with his strategy and game plan.
00:40:38He's taken over the fight.
00:40:39And here we are in round number nine.
00:40:42And that jab has also become an effective weapon for Rezendiz.
00:40:47Yeah, he's back to his jab.
00:40:49His jab is a power jab.
00:40:51Plant is a stick.
00:40:52Trying to keep Rezendiz out.
00:40:53But he's not being effective with it.
00:41:00Sharp job by Rezendiz.
00:41:02Left uppercut on the inside.
00:41:04Plant clinches again.
00:41:05Trying to punch out.
00:41:10I want to start seeing the adjustments from Plant.
00:41:16Here it is.
00:41:17The one-two body work.
00:41:18More body work.
00:41:19Rip the body to Rezendiz.
00:41:20Slow on down.
00:41:21Being a little dirty.
00:41:22You've got to be dirty in this fight.
00:41:23That's been the key to his success this fight.
00:41:24Here it is.
00:41:25Particularly with the right hand of the body.
00:41:26Beatleman in his own fight in the inside.
00:41:27Late left hook lands downstairs for Plant.
00:41:28Plant's building some momentum here.
00:41:29Right uppercut lands on the inside for Rezendiz.
00:41:30Rezendiz, three punch combination.
00:41:32And just when Plant was starting to look good, Rezendiz comes back with his own.
00:41:39And reminds him that he's right here to win tonight.
00:41:41This main event has been compelling.
00:41:42It is delivered up to this point.
00:41:43Rezendiz!
00:41:44Rezendiz!
00:41:45Rezendiz!
00:41:46Rezendiz!
00:41:47Rezendiz!
00:41:48Rezendiz!
00:41:49Rezendiz!
00:41:50Rezendiz!
00:41:51Rezendiz!
00:41:52Rezendiz!
00:41:53Rezendiz!
00:41:54Rezendiz!
00:41:55Rezendiz!
00:41:56Rezendiz!
00:41:57Rezendiz!
00:41:58Rezendiz!
00:41:59Rezendiz!
00:42:00Rezendiz!
00:42:01Rezendiz!
00:42:02Rezendiz!
00:42:03Rezendiz!
00:42:04Rezendiz!
00:42:05Rezendiz!
00:42:06Rezendiz!
00:42:07Rezendiz!
00:42:08Rezendiz!
00:42:09Rezendiz!
00:42:10Rezendiz!
00:42:11Rezendiz!
00:42:12Rezendiz!
00:42:13Rezendiz!
00:42:15Plant sitting down on his punches more this round.
00:42:17That's a veteran move to slow down the momentum of his opponent.
00:42:21Rezendiz!
00:42:22Two!
00:42:23Two!
00:42:24Two!
00:42:25All the tape, I thought I'd be going to take your point away for a second.
00:42:27You know, Plant, two and two and a seven.
00:42:29Two and two in his last four fights and the two losses to Canelo and Benavidez.
00:42:33Very good for the first four rounds, but then faded down the stretch.
00:42:37Resendiz seems to have paced himself for that kind of fight.
00:42:43He can hand that from Resendiz.
00:42:47There is a reason why Blaine chose Resendiz as a spare perfect for that Canelo fight.
00:42:54Resendiz resembles Canelo style.
00:42:56The pressure, the aggression, the volume.
00:43:00Under a minute left here in the ninth.
00:43:03And it's yet another big round for Armando Resendiz.
00:43:12Outthrowing, outlanding, Caleb Blaine.
00:43:15Blaine going to the body.
00:43:17Resendiz responds in kind.
00:43:19Now Resendiz putting his weight on Blaine, trying to set even more strength out of his body.
00:43:24Blaine backing up.
00:43:32Body shot by Resendiz and the jab through the guard.
00:43:35Resendiz throwing much more than Blaine and landing.
00:43:39I'll tell you, Blaine is fading.
00:43:40Well, yes, he is.
00:43:42And this has been a heck of an audition at 168 for Resendiz's future hopes.
00:43:46Win or lose, he's backing the former champion off.
00:43:49What does it say about Caleb Blaine's future?
00:43:51A huge favorite coming into this fight against Armando Resendiz.
00:43:59Look, when there's separation between you and the rival, look at the pin and the 1-2.
00:44:06There's separation between the pin.
00:44:09Pin, double pin, and the 1-2.
00:44:11And here we're going to see the headbutts that Caleb Blaine has been complaining about.
00:44:20And yeah, Resendiz being sneaky with that.
00:44:24Oh, there's really...
00:44:25The referee has been on top of it, though.
00:44:28We've seen all these headbutts, and Resendiz needs to be careful
00:44:31because they will take a point away from him.
00:44:35Better in move here.
00:44:36But he's scoring points with those body shots.
00:44:38Yeah.
00:44:38There's the headbutt and a body shot at the same moment, at the same time.
00:44:45It's starting to look deliberate in there.
00:44:47In a point swing at this juncture, the fight could be crucial.
00:44:51Round 10.
00:44:52What adjustments does Blaine need to make down the stretch, Brian?
00:44:55I don't think he can trade on the inside consistently with Resendiz,
00:44:58but to slow down the forward momentum,
00:45:01the pinpoint body shots are a big key,
00:45:03but you kind of pick up that output at the same time.
00:45:05Yeah, I want him to throw a lot more straight punches.
00:45:10One, two.
00:45:12Turn it into a boxing match.
00:45:13Hold.
00:45:13Hold Resendiz.
00:45:14Turn him.
00:45:15And just try to win the fight from the outside.
00:45:18Easier set than done with the Resendiz being on top of you.
00:45:22Roley Romero played spoiler on May 2nd,
00:45:25upsetting Ryan Garcia and spoiling his rematch with Devin Haney.
00:45:28We talked about the opening, the grudge match on the horizon
00:45:32between Caleb Plant and Jamal Charlo.
00:45:34That seems to be slipping away from Caleb Plant here
00:45:37as we go into the first minute of round number 10.
00:45:43Can Resendiz close the show with nonstop pressure
00:45:47because when he picks it up, Plant slows down.
00:45:52That has been a contributing trend here.
00:45:54And as has been the case throughout Plant's career.
00:45:59Yeah, a lot of jabs thrown in this round by Resendiz.
00:46:01No output fading down the stretch.
00:46:04And there's a short right hand by Resendiz.
00:46:09Counter right by Resendiz.
00:46:12There's a right apricot by Plant.
00:46:15But Plant needs to throw a lot more.
00:46:19Well, he's faded.
00:46:20I don't know if he can't anymore.
00:46:22He's more worried about what Resendiz is going to throw.
00:46:28I believe left hand there from Plant.
00:46:30I'm liking Resendiz's head movement too in this fight.
00:46:33Something that we've got to mention.
00:46:35I've seen in the past fights where he gets hit a lot.
00:46:37Not in this fight.
00:46:38Great head movement by Resendiz.
00:46:40Resendiz leading in every statistical department.
00:46:47Pot shot right hand blocked by Resendiz.
00:46:49We've not seen Caleb Plant put together any fluid combinations.
00:46:54Be unable to put together any combinations of any note.
00:46:57And it's because the countering of Resendiz leads to back and forth training.
00:47:01And that's not where Plant wants to be.
00:47:05Yeah, definitely a lot more power.
00:47:07A lot more steam behind the punches from Resendiz.
00:47:09But Plant is trying to keep him away.
00:47:11Keep him off with that jab.
00:47:12But not enough.
00:47:13Pressure is on Plant here to do what he's known for.
00:47:19Literally and figuratively.
00:47:20The mid-ground, mid-fight adjustment that changes the momentum of the fight.
00:47:27Resendiz wearing Plant down with those body shots.
00:47:31The pressure taking its toll on Caleb Plant.
00:47:35The jams, the hooks.
00:47:42It's all Armando Resendiz.
00:47:44He's thrown 70 punches in round 10 compared to 50 for Plant.
00:47:49A landing Plant 28-9 in the round.
00:47:53And the look on Jordan Platt's face says it all.
00:47:58A look of concern.
00:48:09I'm not going to lie to you.
00:48:12Listen.
00:48:17Hey, listen.
00:48:18We need these two rounds, okay, kid?
00:48:20I got it.
00:48:20All right.
00:48:21But don't rush it.
00:48:22Sit down on your shot.
00:48:23You don't have to put four or five together.
00:48:26Put two and three together.
00:48:29You got to put two and three together and break on your hook side.
00:48:32Jab, slide to the hook side, and come back with your hook.
00:48:36All right?
00:48:37Don't break down to your right side because the right-hand time is coming to you.
00:48:41We need these two rounds.
00:48:42We need these two rounds.
00:48:44Breadman Edwards desperately saying we need these two rounds.
00:48:47He needs more combinations.
00:48:49Round number 11.
00:48:50But unfortunately, that means that he's going to have to stay in the pocket.
00:48:54Major upset alert.
00:48:55And that's where this Resendiz is known to be best.
00:49:04And it's a big lead on Larry Hazard's unofficial scorecard for Armando Resendiz.
00:49:11As we told you, his signature victory coming in was when he stopped Jared Hurd due to a severely lacerated lip.
00:49:18The only stoppage loss of Hurd's 35 pro career.
00:49:21And he's on the verge of recording an even bigger win here tonight against Caleb Platt.
00:49:31And being smart trying to hold him.
00:49:35The throw line needs to go on the offensive.
00:49:40The pressure.
00:49:42Mountain.
00:49:42Body shot by Resendiz.
00:49:51Body shot by Platt.
00:49:54And Platt is trying.
00:49:55Right up front of the inside, Lance, for Resendiz.
00:49:59What is the constant aggression?
00:50:01The body from Resendiz in the inside.
00:50:04Sneaky shots.
00:50:05Short shots.
00:50:06There's a body shot by Platt, but again, single shots, no combinations, no follow-up with the right hand.
00:50:15And the pressure continues from Resendiz.
00:50:19And you see that blood continue to flow from the eyes of Platt.
00:50:22The damage is piling up.
00:50:32Resendiz has used his jab effectively here tonight.
00:50:36And the first half of 2025 has been about big upset moments like Raleigh Romero against Ryan Garcia.
00:50:43Or upset performances in a loss like Ramon Cardenas against the great Niwa Inouye.
00:50:49Resendiz adding his name to that equation, but also announcing himself as a tough out of this division,
00:50:54which is something that wasn't secured coming into this fight.
00:50:57On to a minute left in the 11th.
00:51:00They said Resendiz might be too small for this weight class.
00:51:03He's showing otherwise.
00:51:05He's coming up with a big performance.
00:51:09Platt going to the body.
00:51:13Unable to do what his trainer, Bretman Edwards, wanted him to do.
00:51:17And that's in large part because of Resendiz's sustained pressure.
00:51:23It's incredible how much Resendiz is dominating Platt statistically down the stretch of this fight.
00:51:34And it goes again to the old story for Caleb Platt, fading down the stretch.
00:51:39Against a pressure fighter.
00:51:40Yep.
00:51:40And in this case, Resendiz is proving he belongs in the name, with the other names who've done that to Platt.
00:51:47Ooh.
00:51:48Oh, counter right by Platt.
00:51:49Ooh.
00:51:58Go right hand, kick.
00:51:59Go right hand, kick.
00:52:00Go right hand, kick.
00:52:01Go right hand, kick.
00:52:02Go right hand, kick.
00:52:03Go right hand, kick.
00:52:08Hey, we need this round, son.
00:52:09Last round.
00:52:10We're going to touch you out.
00:52:11Listen to me.
00:52:12Can you fight this round on the bounce?
00:52:14Can you fight this round on the bounce?
00:52:15Yes.
00:52:16OK.
00:52:17We need this round, kid.
00:52:18I'm not going to ever lie to you.
00:52:19I love you, kid.
00:52:20We need this fucking round.
00:52:21You want to be a champion, you got to call this round.
00:52:25Behind the paint.
00:52:26Behind the one, two.
00:52:27Listen, of course.
00:52:28You got to be careful.
00:52:29Aggression.
00:52:30But control.
00:52:31Control aggression.
00:52:32Control aggression.
00:52:33Get some air.
00:52:34Control aggression.
00:52:35Armando Resendiz's first 12-round fight makes it to the 12th round.
00:52:38He's on the verge of recording a life-altering victory.
00:52:41Blance Corners said, we need this round.
00:52:42They need a knockout.
00:52:43They need a knockout.
00:52:44Yes, or a knockout.
00:52:45Depends how you score it.
00:52:46There have been close rounds.
00:52:47But there has no doubt that second half...
00:52:48Yeah, you both get their skills mixed.
00:52:49It was the second half.
00:52:50...it was the second half.
00:52:51It's still there.
00:52:53They have to give it hard.
00:52:54Attack, attack.
00:52:55You're fishing.
00:52:56— Then youetzung is a
00:53:06Depends how you score it. There have been close rounds, but there's no doubt this second half has been almost all Resendee's.
00:53:13And the rounds of Resendee's of one have been clear-cut.
00:53:20This is not going to do it for Caleb Platt.
00:53:23Nope. Unnecessary jumping there.
00:53:27Just wasting energy. Waste that energy throwing punches, Platt.
00:53:31There you go.
00:53:32We've also never seen this mature a boxing performance from Resendee's before.
00:53:39Not on this level.
00:53:44Body shot by Resendee's.
00:53:46Yeah, the sharp, great head move inside of the side by Resendee's, making it hard for Platt as he lands those straight punches.
00:53:53Resendee's on top of Platt. Continues to put on the pressure off the front foot. Goes to the back.
00:53:59Another run at last for Resendee's upstairs.
00:54:06There's the answer for that, Platt. There it is. A one-two. Move to the side. Don't stay on the ropes.
00:54:12Resendee's on! Resendee's on! Resendee's on! Resendee's on! Resendee's on! Resendee's on!
00:54:22Resendee's on! Resendee's on! Resendee's on!
00:54:25Coming into this fight, would you have thought that Armando Resendee's would have a better connect percentage than a guy like Caleb Platt, Brian Campbell?
00:54:33No chance from what we thought we knew coming in here between these two fighters, but that's why you throw the odds out the window.
00:54:40When you touch gloves, anything can happen.
00:54:43And El Toro is making his bed in the super middleweight division.
00:54:51He's closing the show, guys.
00:54:53Pressure makes diamonds. Armando Resendee's shining bright like one here in his first 12-round attraction under the bright lights of Las Vegas against a former champion in Caleb Platt.
00:55:07Armando! Armando Resendee's 40 seconds away from the biggest win of his career, from the best gift he can give his child that's weeks away from arriving.
00:55:22The father-to-be putting it all on the line. 20 seconds left.
00:55:30He said his secret to pulling the upset was that fatherhood that's coming.
00:55:41What pride is he showing right now?
00:55:50An incredible performance by the huge underdog Armando Resendee's.
00:55:57They go 12 rounds.
00:55:59The base.
00:56:09Resendee's corner.
00:56:11They feel it's academic from our vantage point.
00:56:15We feel the same way.
00:56:17The numbers indicate that Armando Resendee's should lock out of Las Vegas with the biggest win of his career.
00:56:26It's up to the judges at ringside to determine the victor.
00:56:29Yes, that's the scary part right now.
00:56:32The numbers don't lie, and here's exactly.
00:56:34You know what else doesn't lie?
00:56:36It's what we saw tonight. The punches landed.
00:56:39Caleb Plant started off good, landing straight punches.
00:56:42Boxing, but it's resending suppression.
00:56:45The overhand right many times right in the chin of Caleb Plant.
00:56:49When he was backing up,
00:56:51there was times where Caleb Plant was landing vicious bodywork.
00:56:54Good shots, good left hand.
00:56:56But again, Brissendiz had an answer for all of that.
00:56:59And that was aggression again.
00:57:01Smart, short bodywork.
00:57:03Overhand right, overhand left.
00:57:06Volume, sharp right hand.
00:57:10Constantly on top of Caleb Plant's left hand.
00:57:17The constant work from Brissendiz.
00:57:21The beautiful 10.
00:57:26And here are the numbers, Abner.
00:57:27And they are all in favor of Armando Ascendiz.
00:57:32All right, Jimmy Lennon Jr. is standing by with the official decision.
00:57:45Ladies and gentlemen, after 12 rounds of action, we go for the scorecards.
00:57:51We have a split decision.
00:57:54Here are the score totals.

00:58:41Viva Mexico!
00:58:43Armando Resendiz has just upset Caleb Plant via split decision.

00:58:53No!
00:58:54No!

00:59:07Good luck!
00:59:09Right now,ula franchise!
00:59:10Coffee!
00:59:11Good luck!
00:59:12Good luck, Michael.
00:59:13Gentlemen!
00:59:14Look, here with the victorious El Toro Redsendiz.
00:59:15Abner Maarez will translate.
00:59:16You were a big betting underdog coming in!
00:59:18How great does this feel to pull the upset and ruin Caleb Plant's best laid plan?
00:59:21It's best laid plan.
00:59:51Listen, I don't blame them.
00:59:53I knew that everybody was going to be against me,
00:59:55and I don't blame them because on paper,
00:59:57of course, it was like that, but I believed in myself.
00:59:59My corner believed in me, and that we did exactly.
01:00:02And more importantly, God.
01:00:04A lot of wild chaos in here, a big celebration.
01:00:08But Armando, how nervous were you
01:00:10when you heard split decision?
01:00:16No, no, no.
01:00:17Realmente no me preocupo mucho.
01:00:18Yo confío mucho en el señor.
01:00:20Lo que él tenga para mí, eso va a hacer.
01:00:22Listen, I didn't really worry because I left it all to God.
01:00:24I knew that I was going to win, and I didn't worry at all.
01:00:27Además, fue una gran pelea.
01:00:28Fue una pelea buena.
01:00:29Plus, I knew it was a tough fight.
01:00:30It was a great fight.
01:00:31You said you would pull the upset,
01:00:33and then you wanted Jamal Charlo.
01:00:35Is that the case right now?
01:00:36Sí.
01:00:37Dijiste que le ibas a ganar, que ibas a hacer el upset,
01:00:40y que querías a Charlo.
01:00:41¿Qué piensas ahora?
01:00:42Yo estoy listo para dar pelea a todo el público.
01:00:45I'm ready to fight anyone, whoever the public wants.
01:00:49Congratulations on a breakthrough victory.
01:00:52Caleb Plant, it was a close decision, a split decision.
01:01:07Do you agree with the three judges ringside?
01:01:10I mean, I felt like it was close, and, you know, in a close fight,
01:01:13sometimes it swings the other way.
01:01:14I felt like I was control enough and, you know, using the whole ring,
01:01:18using my jab, but, you know, the judges see it the other way,
01:01:20so what do you do, you know?
01:01:22He's known for being a pressure fighter.
01:01:24Was any part of his boxing ability surprising for you in there tonight?
01:01:28No, not really.
01:01:29It wasn't, like, you know, overbearing pressure.
01:01:32He caught me one overhand right that was pretty good,
01:01:34but other than that, nothing really hurt me or stumped me,
01:01:36but, you know, disappointed, obviously, but...
01:01:39Are you frustrated in your performance tonight?
01:01:41Uh, I felt like I did good.
01:01:44You know, I used my jab, used the whole ring, uh, was patient,
01:01:47but I wasn't the better man tonight, I guess.
01:01:50I felt like I did enough to pull it off, but, you know,
01:01:53it's not the way it went.
01:01:54We thought that a victory in this fight could produce a fight
01:01:57with Jamal Charlo, but where do you go from here after this close defeat?
01:02:00Uh, yeah, I'll just get back with my team, go home with my family,
01:02:03spend time with my daughter, my son's on the way,
01:02:05and, you know, we'll regroup and we'll be back.
01:02:08Congratulations, Caleb, baby on the way, best of luck to you.
01:02:11Thanks for being a stand-up fighter.
01:02:12Thank you, brother.
01:02:14Let's throw it back to ringside, and Mauro Ranallo.
01:02:17All right, Brian, Caleb Plant was ahead 58-56 on two scorecards.
