Canelo and Plant take strong offense at weigh-in

Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez faced, once again, with Caleb Plant at the official weigh-in prior to the big fight this Saturday, which is the super middleweight unification. Both fighters said a lot of things to each other in the showdown that took place in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Since ‘Canelo’ approached with his three belts to the fight, Plant received him with a series of insults, which the fighter from Guadalajara responded, as he did not remain silent and answered each of the American’s offenses.

To prevent things from escalating, as happened in the presentation of the fight last September, members of both sides did not let them get close when leaving the scales in the middle of the tables.

However, the insults and the exchange of words increased in level as the seconds passed. It was just over a minute in which both Alvarez and Plant held nothing back and heated up the fight even more this Saturday, November 6.

Meanwhile, in sports, both passed the scale test without problems, as ‘Canelo’ weighed 168 pounds, while Plant registered 167 pounds, so they had no problems for the last challenge before the big fight.

It should be noted that it was last September 21 when, in the presentation of the fight, the Mexican ‘Canelo’ Alvarez and Caleb Plant threw punches at each other before speaking to the media. Both fighters went on stage to face each other and exchanged words before ‘Canelo’ reacted by pushing Plant.

Plant responded by throwing a punch to the head that was dodged by the Mexican, who hit Caleb in the face before security intervened to separate them.
