Caleb Plant vs Jose Armando again
Caleb Plant is at the top of the most vital boxing champions card at Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas on Saturday, because he defends his momentary title WBA Super Middle weight against Jose Armando Resendiz.
Amazon Prime Televise Plant vs Resndiz Live.
Plant (23-2, 14 KO) slightly saw his career after he became the IBF world champion in 2019, winning points with Jose Uzcatelui.
Now he will face Mexico (15-2, 11 Kos), who fought only once since September 2023. He receives victory in 2023 with the former world champion Jarrett Hurd, but was defeated in the next account and returned in February in six rounds, which he won in fifth place with Fernando Palia in Guadalajara.
Charlo are trying with Lamanna
Jermall Charlo moves to a super medium weight and hopes to protect showdown with the plant, but first she must take care of Thomas Lamanna.
Charlo (33-0, 22 KO) is a former medium-scale master of WBC, but only once he boxed from June 2021, where he defended his belt on cards against Juan Macias Montiel.
The last one was in November 2023, passing on Jose Benavidez Jr over ten in Las Vegas. Lamanna (39-5-1, 18 KO) has been in nine wins since she was frozen in the round by Erislanda Lara in 2021, but everything against the low-level opposition.
Other card
Yoenla Hernandez medium talent (7-0, 7 KO) is also in action and can remain excellent, stopping Kyrone Davis (19-3-1, 6 KO) in the schedule.

Filipino Super Bantamweight, Carl Martin (25-0, 20 KO) should bypass Francisco Pedroza Portillo (19-12-2, 11 KO), but it may need distance.
In six rounds of the Cristian Cangelosi (10-0, 5 KO) competition, he should surpass Samuel Figueroa (13-2, 6 KO) in his great welterweight, as well as in Super Lightweight, Justin Cardon (9-1, 5 KO) can get better Elijah Williams (10-1, 4 Kos).
The perspective of Super Middle weight, John Easter (8-0, 7 KO) should win another early win, and Andres Martinez (5-3, 3 KO) his opposition.
The only four round should see the victory of Brayan Gonzalez (3-0, 2 KO) against Osiel Flores (2-0, 2 KO), probably at points in Super Bantamweight.
Dave Allen returned to the ring last night, headlining his home stadium in Doncaster and facing Filip Hrgovic.
Allen was defeated in three rounds by Hrgovic, ranked fifth in The Ring magazine’s heavyweight rankings.
He talked to TalkSports in the ring after the loss and explained why he initially took the fight and how, despite being better prepared than at most previous camps, he simply wasn’t good enough that night.
“Yes, you know I took that fight, it was like winning the lottery, if you could call it that.
“I just wasn’t good enough and there’s nothing wrong with that, he’s a very good player, I knew he was good [coming into the fight.]
“Yes, he was really good, in terms of fair play he was good.
“He was too good for me and there’s nothing wrong with that, I lost to Frazer Clark and sometimes you just get beaten and you have to say, ‘You know what was just second best?’ and that was another situation like that tonight.”
After his victory, he spoke to El Animal. Professional boxing fans and discussed a possible fight with 21-year-old Moses Itauma.
Itauma is scheduled to return on August 8 in London, with Hrgovic getting an early win may be possible.

“I’m very proud to have brought all these people here tonight, I’m very grateful.
“What can you really say, I got beat, but I’m glad I got some closure.”
Allen discussed his preparations for the fight. He weighed 17.10 pounds, the lightest he has weighed since 2019.
Despite his efforts, he failed to achieve the desired result, but he seemed satisfied with his performance.
“I trained as demanding as I could and made the appropriate change.

“I felt like I was boxing pretty well, he was just too good for me and I can live with that.
“I’m a good player, but tonight I can finally sit at home and say, ‘I trained really demanding, but I wasn’t good enough,’ and that’s okay.”
Allen, always loved for his honesty and vulnerability during interviews, revealed a touching factor explaining why he took up boxing.
“I started boxing so people would like me. I wanted my elderly man to really like me and I’m not sure if he likes it, but everyone else does.
“I feel like a winner, I just got completely hammered and yet I feel like a winner.”
With his coach Jamie Moore canceling the competition in the third round, some argued that Allen should have seen the fourth round, including his father when speaking to talkSPORT.
The 34-year-old decided to support his team, while admitting that he had feelings for them after more than six years of training in Manchester.
Over the past six years, Allen has turned his fortune around, earning life-changing purses through fighting to facilitate his family.
He continued to discuss future plans and the possibility of winning the British heavyweight title, currently held by Richard Riakporhe.
“I can fight another day, for the British title.”
“Break, I love Jamie [Moore] and Nigel [Travis]they look out for my best interests so I can come back and fight another day; whether it’s a British title, I’m not sure.”
“[Richard] Riakporhe is very, very good, they are all good players, but now I want to rest a bit.
“I’m in as good shape as ever, I’m enjoying training and life, and I hope I can run well again.”
The post “I feel like a winner” – Dave Allen after losing Hrgovic appeared first on ProBoxing-Fans.com.
Dave Allen was unable to achieve the impossible at home against Doncaster Rovers FC when Filip Hrgovic delivered a one-sided beating to him in third-round stoppage time to claim the vacant IBF Intercontinental heavyweight title.
Allen was definitely the weaker fighter against Hrgovic.
Fan favorite Allen (25-9-2, KO20) rarely gets into a uninteresting fight, and after stopping Johnny Fisher last May, he was overtaken by Arslanbek Makhmudov before returning to winning ways in a modest comeback in February.
Hrgovic (20-1, KO15) is two wins since losing to Daniel Dubois in 2024, with his last points victory coming against David Adeleye last August.
Hrgovic started in a measured fashion, hitting Allen with constant 1-2s, and Allen struggled with timing in the first round.
Hrgovic kept the pressure going by toying with Allen he landed heavy blows in the second and holding it at the end of challenging right hands.
Allen simply couldn’t avoid the punches that were coming his way, and after the Croatian landed a punch to the body and head, Allen saw enough of the corner and threw in the towel to save his man.
Michael Gomez Jr. fight with Lee McGregor
Michael Gomez Jr (23-2, KO8) won the lightweight clash, defeating former European champion Lee McGregor (16-3-1, KO11) in the sixth round of a scheduled 10-round fight.

Remaining fights
Louie O’Doherty (12-0, KO3) added the vacant Commonwealth lightweight title to his British crown by defeating Ahmed Hatim (12-1, KO3) during their meeting.
