Caleb Plant (23-2, 14 KOs) is the No. 3 ranked competitor in the super middleweight division, according to the latest ESPN rankings. The 32-year-old opened his career with a perfect 21-0 record, winning the IBF super middleweight crown in his 18th pro bout with a unanimous decision victory over José Uzcátegui.
After three title defenses, Plant took a leap up in competition and faced Canelo Alvarez in a title unification contest. Alvarez scored an 11th-round TKO win in that contest. Plant bounced back from his first career defeat with a knockout win over Anthony Dirrell. Another loss followed as Plant dropped a decision to David Benavidez in March 2023 in a matchup for the interim WBC super middleweight belt.
Plant returned to action in September 2024, capturing the vacant interim WBA super middleweight belt with a knockout win over Trevor McCumby.
Armando Resendiz (15-2, 11 KOs) opened his career with 12 straight wins. Resendiz got knocked out by Elijah Garcia in 2023. His most recent outing was a fifth-round KO win over Fernando Paliza in February of this year. He is the No. 15 ranked competitor in the WBA rankings.

'He's tough, but tough ain't enough," Plant said of Resendiz. 'I'm gonna go in there and do what I do. He's gonna try his damnedest. But I'm gonna get the job done regardless. I'm gonna get my hand raised, and I plan on it being in fashion, but regardless of what happens, we're gonna hear the words and still,'

'Plant is an amazing fighter, one of the elites at 168, but that motivates me even more. It makes me so happy because when you beat someone like that, it makes that win even bigger," said Resendiz.
'I believe in myself. I believe in the work I've done, and not only can I do all the same, but I can do even more. In the end, I know I can disarm Plant in the way that he can be disarmed. We're going to be ready for whatever comes my way during the fight,' added Resendiz.
HOUSTON, TEXAS - JUNE 19: Jermall Charlo looks on prior to his WBC middleweight title fight against ... More and Juan Macias Montiel at Toyota Center on June 19, 2021 in Houston, Texas. (Photo by)
A former two-division world champion (154 and 160 pounds), Jermall Charlo (33-0, 22 KOs) looks to make his mark at another weight class when he competes at 168 pounds in Vegas.
The 35-year-old Charlo has not fought since late 2023 when he earned a decision over José Benavidez Jr. That win ended a break of more than two years for Charlo, who was stripped of his WBC title while he was inactive following a DWI arrest in May 2024.
Thomas LaManna (39-5-1, 18 KOs) is riding a nine-fight winning streak heading into Saturday's event. The 33-year-old is looking for the biggest win of his career against Charlo.
'I'll be a fool to try to overlook him,' Charlo said of his opponent, Thomas LaManna. 'That's not what I'm doing. I'm Jermall Charlo. This is my legacy. This is my career. I'm putting it all on the line. Now I understand why Canelo and them, all the big names, GGG at the time I was at 160, I see why they would say, 'High risk, low reward.' But I'm not that saying towards LaManna in no type of combative way. I'm just saying, naturally, me beating him in fashion and doing what I do best, get out there and win the fight, I probably won't get the thumbs up and the likes from the fans. It's gonna be expected.
'If I go in there and make it a fight and make it tough and something crazy happens in the fight, then they'll be like, 'Oh, he's not Jermall Charlo no more.' So, the pressure is on me to be who I am. I'm not overlooking LaManna. He has some skill. He has experience, too. He just never been in there with anybody like me.'

'I learned from the Erislandy Lara fight that I can't let the moment get to me. If I can do that all throughout the week and get there to fight night, it's gonna be a long night for Charlo,' said LaManna.
'My whole mindset changed after the Lara fight. I didn't want to fight anymore. But when I came back, I knew I wanted to do it the right way. I knew this was my big opportunity at the biggest stage. Now I've got that great opportunity.'
'I definitely have the momentum over Charlo,' LaManna added. 'But we have to let the fights happen. We're gonna find out on May 31."

Wake Forest (37-21) will play either No. 14 national seed Tennessee or Cincinnati in an elimination game on Sunday. The first regional appearance for Miami (35-23) since 2005 came to an end. Joe Ariola came on with the bases loaded and two outs in the seventh and walked two as Miami got within 13-9. Haiden Leffew entered and got out of the inning with a strikeout. Wake Forest DH Kade Lewis lined a shot off the left-field wall to score Marek Houston from first to extend the lead to 14-9 in the eighth. It was Lewis' 25th multi-hit game of the season. Leffew allowed two quick runs in the ninth before Lunceford entered with the bases loaded. Blake Buzzeo singled on the first pitch and the left fielder misplayed it allowing two to score. Lunceford got a pop up and a strikeout to end it for his first save of the season.
