David Benavidez is not looking past his arch-nemesis, Caleb Plant for their upcoming bout.
The stylistic clash of a boxer in Plant, and a puncher in Benavidez has fight fans eager to see what will happen, as the way the tempo is dictated in the fight will set the tone for the rest of the fight.
“I know it’s not gonna be easy,” said Benavidez when speaking with FightHype.com. “Caleb is a good fighter, he’s a good defensive fighter but I feel like overall I’m stronger, faster, I think better, and have more punching power.”
What a lot of people are overlooking is Caleb Plant has now faced the tougher competition than Benavidez as he faced Canelo Alvarez, one of the best fighters in the world, and though he didn’t win the fight, he faired well in the fight.
The two have been combative towards each other for years now will settle the score of who is the best super middleweight behind Canelo Alvarez.
