Paulie Malignaggi says that Caleb Plant must “assess” whether he is hungry to continue his career after losing to Armando Resndiz last Saturday evening in Las Vegas.
The hunger for the plant questioned
The short-lived master of super medium WBA (23-3, 14 KO) lost the 12-round divided decision for RESENDIZ (26-2, 11 KO). The loss of Caleb potentially derailed his plans to fight Jermall Charlo next on PPV.
Malingaggi says he doesn’t know if the plant has hunger to continue the fight because he has already earned good money and has a family. He asks if Caleb is willing to put an effort against hungry warriors, such as Resendiz.
He looked at me hungry, but he had a face in a face with a guy with a chin, power and internal game. Plant could not stop the Restndiz outside and was beaten inside.
“I don’t know what the Caleb plant is doing. He didn’t look hungry for me, but of course he still had all his departments. If he is no longer hungry, he must judge it himself. He didn’t look hungry today,” said Paulie Malignaggi on his own canal About Caleb Plant after losing to Armando Rediz last Saturday.
The “Honey” plant looked the same as usual, but it was hit by many demanding shots of the younger warrior who applied it on it. Immense shots that landed plants that gave older, smaller fighters, such as Anthony Dirrell and Trevor McCumbby, did not affect Resendiz.
Plant: “Fight not to lose”
“Fighting not to lose. His intention was to overcome the Restndiz and fight with Jermall Charlo. You want to hit them enough to stop them from you,” said Malignaggi about what went wrong for Plant. “Rezendiz did not cooperate. So now you have to fight these guys.”
The plant fought as always; His talent was not enough to overcome this warrior level. If you come back and see the previous Plant’s fights with Jose Uzcatelui, Mike Lee, Caleb Trax and Vincent Feigenbutz, he looked the same against them as in the fight against Resendiz.
The difference was that RESENDIZ was better than these fighters in terms of his pressure, game and impact resistance. If Plant had fought earlier in his career, he would lose to him as last Saturday evening. In other words, the plant was never as good as boxing fans thought.
“As the fight was fought, the plant had no fight in it, because now you have to do what you did in [Trevor] McCumbby is fighting again and you have to fight in you. There are only as many times in which you call it in your career, especially when you are behind schedule and you earned good money. It is much harder to lead this dog out of you, especially consistently at this age with all other variables that I have just mentioned.
The fight Charlo-resndiz was discussed
“Resendiz has two great victories. Caleb Plant was not as shot as Jarrett Hurd. Now you do not suddenly do not have Charlo-Cuteb’s plant, but do you have Charlo and Resendiz?” Paulie said.
As long as Jermalla’s promoters are fine when his next fight is regular PBC in Prime Video, RESSENDIZ would be a good idea. However, Charlo’s management will probably want him to be on PPV for the next fight. Now that the plant lost, it would be stupid to continue the original plan to fight the plant.
Charlo has been out of the game for too many years to sell in Pay-Per-View. Even if Plant won last Saturday, the fight between him and Charlo would not make enormous numbers in Pay-Per-View. There is not enough older fans who would like to pay $ 75 to watch these two.
“Do we make charlo-resandiz because we still don’t know how much Charlo is left,” Paulie said. “The revival is ongoing. I think RESENDIZ is a good logical step. This is not a great fight and it would not be sold to you like a great fight, such as Charlo and Plant. But I did not think that Charlo and Plant will be a great fight anyway.”
PBC would have to believe that Charlo would win to give him a green lightweight to face Reiniz. Based on his performance against Lamanna, I wouldn’t do it if I were with PBC.
Charlo struck through Lamanna too often so that he could put him in a guy like RESENDIZ. The shots with which the Restendiz hit the plant inside would give Jermall many problems. There has been no game for too many years and is too elderly to be hit by 26-year-old RESENDIZ.
“But this fight makes sense in steps to restore Jermalla Charlo. If he defeated RESENDIZ, now it is a good win, because Resendiz won with the factory and won [Jarrett] Hurd. He has a pretty decent CV for Charlo to win such a guy – said Paulie.
It would be a good win for Jermall, if he defeated the Restndiz, and it potentially led to the fight with Edgar Berlang, Diego Pacheco or Christian Mbilli. It is doubtful that Canelo willingly fight Charlo. He would fight Charlo only when Turki Alalshikh offered him a few money. He doesn’t take risks unless he pays huge money. Turki would have to initiate this.
PBC Charlo Returns
“But if Restendiz defeats Charlo, he adds his name to his CV. Anyway, the winner can be nicely set in the 168 pounds division,” said Malignaggi.
It does not seem realistic that Charlo’s guides will allow him to get tangled with the re -performance after the performances on the last Saturday. Jermall does not shine enough to Thomas Lamanna to risk puting him in Resendiz, and told him to land on arrows with which he hit the plant.
We saw what the very average Juan Macias Montiel for Jermall four years ago in 2021. It was against a much better version of Charlo than the one we saw last Saturday night against Lamanna. Charlo looked like there was only 50% of what he was against Montiel, but fortunately for him he faced the journeyman, not someone like RESENDIZ.
Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao and world -class world champion WBC Mario “El Azteca” Barrios For the second time at a press conference in Los Angeles on Tuesday, after a press conference in Las Vegas on Saturday, everything to view their main event, which takes place on Saturday, July 19, in which the PBC Pay-View star was staged on the best film with MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
Public for sale begins tomorrow, Wednesday, June 4 at 10.00 Axs.com.
Here’s what the fighters had to say from events on Tuesday at Novo in La Live and Saturday with House of Blues Las Vegas:
Manny Pacquiao
“Fire, determination and willingness to work challenging is still there. I still like to lead the mountains. Not every warrior has such a feeling. This is a blessing because I have experienced so many great fights in my career and I am still here.
“For boxing fans around the world, thank you for accepting me again. I hope that on July 19 this fight will entertain everyone. Everyone here will work challenging in a training camp so that the fans are satisfied with July 19.
“Barrios is a kind of warrior who gives people good fights. Me and he will satisfy fans in the ring and that’s what I want.
“It meant a lot to me if I became the world champion again. Manny Pacquiao always surprises fans. This is my passion and it is very vital to me. I want everyone to be satisfied with this fight.
“My goal is to leave the legacy of boxing fans. I want to inspire the teenage generation who dreams of becoming a champion.
“On July 19, there will be a lot of action. There are many great fights on this card. I know what is capable of and I know that we can entertain fans.
“I was able to rest and it was good for me. Now I came back and I am excited that I can give fans a great fight. I know that Barrios is challenging to defend myself.
“For many years I have been, and even years in which I was not a box, I was still thinking about boxing. I even have a boxing gym in my house and always practiced. I really missed boxing.”
Mario Barrios
“I’m here, I’m ready and I’m not a master.
“All the other great fights that I prepared me for a moment. Defense of my title against legend and I couldn’t be more honored.
“In the face of Manny is something I have never imagined, and now he is here on one of the largest cards in the year. On July 19, it will be a box of boxing that you don’t want to miss.
“This is a great honor for a legend like Manna, to want to come back and fight for my title. This is my greatest fight so far and I am excited that I can take it.
“Come on July 19, I will have to face the legend opposite me. I have respect for him outside the ring. But inside the ring he is simply another man who is trying to take what is mine. I am a master for some reason and I will show it.
“I think I can do a lot, which I learned from fighting Gervont Davis. The way it closes the distance and works from speed and even size is similar. All my great fights really prepared me for the moment.
“I saw people who are heading from Manny at such press conferences since I was a child. He is not too sedate, except when he is in the ring. I know that he will bring him when we enter the ring.”
Jamaican boxing legend Mike McCallum died at the age of 68.
McCallum died on Saturday in Las Vegas, according to the Clark Coroner’s office, but no details were disclosed.
Known as “The Bodysnatcher”, McCallum was one of the most terrified boxing punchers during his career, which lasted in 1981–1997. He retired in 1997 with a record of 49-5-1, and then he was a successful coach in Las Vegas.
Born in Kingston in Jamaica, on December 7, 1956, McCallum represented Jamaica at the Summer Olympic Games in 1976. He turned to a professional in 1981 and won his first 32 fights, and 29 came through a knockout. McCallum became the first world -born world champion in 1984, won world titles in the junior medium weight, medium weight and lightweight, and was introduced to the International Gallery of Sław in boxes in 2003.
“It was with complete and complete sadness that I learned about the death of a three-time boxing master in Jamaica Michael McKenzie McCallum,” said Sport Minister Jamaica Olivia Grange. “I express my personal condolences to his mother, siblings and his children. On behalf of the Ministry of Sport I will take this opportunity to extend our sympathies to the family and friends of this legendary Jamaica.”
McCallum was worshiped for the brutal blow of the body, but he was also recognized as a highly qualified boxer with an amazing chin, as evidenced by the never knocked out in his 55 career. While McCallum wins over Julian Jackson, Donald Curry and McCrory, he was never able to fight the thunderous opponent, because Duran, Sugar Ray Leonard, Marvin Hagler and Thomas Hearns did not decide to face him.
After winning the WBA Super Welter Wich, beating Sean Mannion in 1984, McCallum created six successful defense of the title, and all this comes. In 1988 he suffered his first loss in his career when he challenged the challenge of WBA Middle Wweight in 1988. But McCallum would ultimately won the free average title in the following year, beating Herola Graham because of a divided decision. Later he avenged a loss with Kalambay before he fought the companion of Hall of Fames James Toney divided in 1991 and lost his decision in the 1992 rematch.
McCallum won the title of world champion in the third weight class at the age of 37, when he defeated Jeff Harding in 1994. He would do one defense of the title before he lost three of the four four fights, and two of these losses came to Toney and Roy Jones Jr. After passing, McCallum was a lasting element in Las Vegas.
Arrangements they have already falling apart In the fight of Teofimo Lopez vs. Devin Haney Mini-Mega August 16 in Saudi Arabia. There is no word about what the cause of the fall was, but it is probably one of these two Prima Donnas priced, asking for more than Turks Alalshikh was ready to pay. One of these two wanted a gold face and it didn’t happen.
Lopeza tough tender style
It was anticipated last night that the negotiations would quickly fall apart between Teo and Haney, leaving them both where they started. For fans who know Teofimo, they are not surprised if he caused the breakup. It is a tough opportunity in negotiations.
“Negotiations have fallen for the proposed fight between Devin Haney and Teofimo Lopez on August 16 in Riyjad, Ring Magazine found out. Haney and Teofimo won the wins wide on May 2 on Times Square,” said Mike Coppinger. Xrevealing bad news.
Haney’s dad confirms the fall
Dad Devina, Bill Haney, published today on X, confirming that the conversations fell for the fight with Lopez. However, a few moments ago he removed the post. Perhaps this is a sign that negotiations have returned.
Both Haney, Lopez needs a fight
These two are now in need. None of them can be negotiated on this fight, because their options for other convincing fights are petite. 26 -year -old Haney conducts a welterweight campaign, but there is a lack of attention -not -noted names that he can fight for the type of money he received in the last two competitions against Jose Ramirez and Ryan Garcia.
Haney (32-0, 15 KO) and Lopez (22-1, 13 KO) looked terrible in their fights on the Turki card on May 2 at Times Square, Recent York. Of these two, Teofimo looked worse because he showed, cladding and didn’t even try to fight the opponent, Arnold Barboz Jr.
At least with Haney he accelerated him in the second half, dominating Jose Ramirez and looked decent. Still, he looked like he had experienced retrospective Sometimes from the previous fight with Ryan Garcia.
