Jermall Charlo's next fight: With the Plant rivalry dead, all signs should point to one big name

Jermall Charlo is in the market for a big-name opponent following Caleb Plant's upset loss. () LAS VEGAS — Armando Resendiz overcame long odds to convincingly defeat Caleb Plant on Saturday and win an interim championship at super middleweight, torching tentative plans to stage a blockbuster all-American fight between Plant and rival Jermall Charlo later this year. Charlo did his part to keep the box-office bout together as he shook off any ring rust from a lengthy absence to knock Thomas LaManna down three times for a stoppage victory, largely thanks to a cultured jab and transferrable power from his days at middleweight, and under. Advertisement Plant told Uncrowned and other reporters backstage that he'll likely pursue a second fight with Resendiz because of a rematch clause in their bout agreement. And though that would leave Charlo with no immediately obvious opponent, there is an enticing alternative for Charlo to revisit, and it's a man he's had no shortage of bad blood with in the past. Meet Chris Eubank Jr. — arguably the hottest commodity in UK boxing right now outside of the big heavyweight Brits. Eubank's stock has never been higher than it is today, as he handily defeated Conor Benn during a Battle of Britain in front of 67,484 people at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on April 26. Advertisement It's been a long time coming for Eubank to become an overnight sensation, but it has its roots in his famous fighting father, Chris Eubank Sr. — a British boxing legend — and his own gradual plod to become a beloved personality himself. I first met Eubank Jr. eight years ago when arranging interviews with him at his basement boxing club in Hove, on the south coast of England. He was cerebral in his responses. He always seemed cool, calm and collected, and was yet able to turn vicious for sporadic in-ring moments after vaulting the ropes and into fights on national television. Despite his Louis Vuitton-wrapped motor vehicles, and Floyd Mayweather-esque fashion sense, he was never too Hollywood to turn down time to talk whenever we saw one another in and around events. He's long had a superstar's aura, but with a man-of-the-people mentality. Advertisement He once signed a fan's microwave, which sparked an eBay bidding war before the unit eventually sold for a £65,900 price tag ($90,000). Eubank promised to donate a matching figure to charity. Mainstream audiences in Britain warmed to Eubank over the years. The more they saw of him, the more they liked him, even though he was branded difficult to work with by veteran boxing promoters. He never needed a second invitation to try to put them, or his opponents, in their place when on stage. Just ask Eddie Hearn and Frank Warren, whom he called scumbags in a recent statement he later retracted, or Liam Smith, who Eubank handled with class when the boxer implied he was gay. Eubank, unfazed, wore a rainbow armband at a later weigh-in event. Smith issued a groveling apology. You could probably ask Jermall Charlo, too. It was 2019 when Charlo and Eubank met each other for the first time. Chris Eubank Jr. makes his inconic ring walk alongside his father. () (Mark Robinson via Getty Images) Charlo had already established himself as a world champion boxer by this point, having won the IBF light middleweight title with a third-round knockout win over Cornelius Bundrage in 2015. He'd beaten Austin Trout and Julian Williams, too. And he'd even become a two-weight champ as he won the WBC's belt at middleweight in subsequent years. Advertisement Charlo was the more decorated fighter by some margin. But Eubank was unimpressed. Charlo trounced Dennis Hogan in seven rounds at a Premier Boxing Champions event inside Barclays Center, Brooklyn, on Dec. 7, 2019. Eubank, also on the bill, picked up a second-round win after Matvey Korobov suffered a dislocated shoulder. 'He is not a likable guy,' Eubank said of Charlo on "The PBC Podcast" at the time. 'Some people say I'm arrogant or cocky, but I'm a down-to-Earth, decent guy. This guy's head is in the clouds. He thinks he's more than he is.' His lightning-quick win over Korobov, a fighter who took Charlo the distance albeit in a 2018 loss, was all the boxing math Eubank needed to feel confident if he were to ever stand across from the American in a headlining fight. 'I would take great pleasure in taking him down a peg or two,' Eubank said. Advertisement Charlo clapped back at Eubank, of course. He accused both Junior and Senior of running their mouths — and being run out of the U.K. At a later event, he said Eubank was just trying to talk his way into a fight. Eubank need not do any talking to warrant a fight this time, having raised his profile enormously since then. He's a tempting consideration for Saul Alvarez. Should "Canelo" ever want to fight in front of a sell-out crowd in a U.K. soccer stadium, then he knows who to go to after Terence Crawford in September. Charlo, too, is trying to get Alvarez's attention. 'I'd rather fight 'Canelo' [now] than Plant,' he told Uncrowned and other reporters last weekend, at the PBC on Prime Video card. Advertisement So to stake a further claim to a "Canelo" payday, Charlo and Eubank should fight each other. Eubank has a name value that should be attractive to Charlo right now, and Charlo can provide something that Eubank dreams of, too. Eubank vs. Charlo is a big-ticket event due to their history, respective journeys, and for how it amplifies an under-appreciated boxing rivalry — U.S. vs U.K. These fights have typically delivered modern-day classics, and we should do more of them. There was Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder's all-time great heavyweight trilogy, Kell Brook's besting of Shawn Porter, and Josh Taylor's edging of Regis Prograis in a Fight of the Year contender. The States got their licks in, too, with Errol Spence smashing Brook in his hometown, and Ryan Garcia climbing off the canvas to finish Luke Campbell. Advertisement Eubank has great familiarity with the States, as he attended Spring Valley High School in Las Vegas as a teenager, and has a deep understanding of American boxing culture. He learned his trade in places like the Top Rank gym and other clubs in Las Vegas. 'It's where I would get my ass kicked every week for months, and years, and that's built the foundation of what I am now,' Eubank told Sky Sports. 'Being in these gyms in Vegas, traveling around, sparring guys [and] learning.' He's been to resident DJ Steve Aoki's home, played chess with Dan Bilzerian, and trained under Floyd Mayweather Sr.'s watchful eye at the Mayweather Boxing Club. The Fight Capital of the World is his 'home away from home,' Eubank said in a Boxxer promo, last year. 'I spend a lot of time out here.' Advertisement The only thing he's not done here, though, is fight. "It's been a dream of mine to fight in Vegas ever since I started," Eubank said last year. "I still haven't done it,' he added. 'It's a very important thing for me to do before I retire.' The city has numerous venues to pick from. Small hall shows land at The Chelsea inside The Cosmopolitan. There's an intimate venue at Virgin Hotels, too. Slightly bigger events headline at Michelob Ultra Arena inside the Mandalay Bay Resort. But the marquee matchups take place at either the MGM Grand Garden Arena — the site Manny Pacquiao picked to make his boxing comeback against Mario Barrios on July 19 — or the T-Mobile Arena, where "Canelo" has been fighting on Mexican holidays. Advertisement 'For me, it was always the MGM Grand [Garden Arena],' Eubank said. 'That's where the massive fights were. [But the T-Mobile Arena], in a short space of time, has actually surpassed the MGM.' 'One day, we're going to fight here,' Eubank finished. 'It's a dream of mine.'

Jermall Charlo is having fun again, but big questions still surround his return to the ring

Jermall Charlo is saying all the right things ahead of his return to the ring Saturday against Thomas LaManna at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas. 'I'm excited,' he told Uncrowned. He said he'd welcome a future fight against rival Caleb Plant, who boxes Jose Armando Resendiz in the main event of at the same show, and would fight Saul "Canelo" Alvarez if the opportunity presented itself too. He's even prepared to fight more frequently. Advertisement Charlo, a former two-weight world champion, is one of America's best-known boxers. He has an identical twin named Jermell, who is also a gifted fighter. Combined, they were a driving force for Premier Boxing Champions when the organization aired its events on Showtime Sports. Jermall, though, has been inactive. We've rarely seen him. He's only fought three times in the past five years. The sport of boxing has changed dramatically since he last held a title in 2021. His next bout will be his first on PBC's new broadcast partner, Prime Video, which is a partnership first announced at the end of 2023. There are numerous reasons for Charlo's absence. "When you can't stabilize your mind to think forward, that's where I was at. Not being able to explain it to anyone. Always shielded. I had to fight through my learning experience,' he said on PBC's YouTube channel regarding his struggles with mental health. He told the NY Post two years ago that he was 'dealing with all kinds of cases of [being] bipolar.' He said he turned his back on the world. His brother, Jermell, once said the reason he got the "Canelo" fight in 2023 instead of Jermall was because Jermall wasn't 'in the right mental state' to compete. Advertisement Jermall, though, faced his battles on his own terms, and got better at his own pace. Patience, he said, was key. Charlo's willingness to discuss his vulnerabilities so openly is important because a stigma remains attached to the condition. McLean Hospital, the largest psychiatric facility of Harvard Medical School, notes that only "25% of Black people seek mental health treatment when needed, compared to 40% of white people." Christine M. Crawford, MD, MPH, specializes in psychiatry, completed her fellowship at McLean, and said: 'African Americans silently live with mental health challenges for fear of being judged.' For Charlo, there was a period in his life when he 'didn't know what mental health even was.' Advertisement 'A lot of people shy away from showing that sensitive side of themselves," he said in 2023. "Because I'm the champ, they look at me like they expect greatness. And sometimes I don't have that greatness to provide. Then I'm not mentally focused. Now I'm mentally focused, I feel like I'm a better person.' After previous absences from the ring, Charlo has spoken of the need to 'rebuild himself' mentally. And that has never been more apparent than after speaking to him this month. He certainly seems rebuilt. I've been interviewing Charlo for six years. But after speaking to him in 2023, something seemed amiss. He looked vacant. His hair was dishevelled. He was uninterested. Never have I advised a fighter not to fight, but that was the one occasion I was close to penning a column saying his bout against Jose Benavidez Jr. should not go ahead. I even heard from a source close to Charlo that they shared a similar concern. Regardless, Charlo outpointed Benavidez by a 100-90 margin on one of the judges' scorecards. He won with ease. I didn't get to tell Charlo how wrong I was until this month, upon his return to the sport, after another extended spell away. Advertisement It was great to see him smile again. Talking to him in 2025 is like speaking to a different person. He's more engaged, and appears more content. "Having my brother [in camp helps], but on top of that, I rebuilt my team,' he said. This has energized him, he added, because he's now got 'a brotherhood' around him. 'We all believe in God. We're all strong, just knowing things come and go, I got rid of a lot of the drama. Got things out of my life that I won't get that back again. I feel a lot better. It's one of the best camps I had. There's laughter. Fun. It's not about material stuff no more.' Charlo's return to the sport comes at a pivotal time for American boxing considering the significant influence that Turki Alalshikh and Riyadh Season has. Whether Las Vegas' status as the Fight Capital of the World is under threat from Saudi Arabian finances remains to be seen. But Charlo has been watching with interest from afar. Advertisement His fire, he said, 'is lit.' He added: 'I can't wait to get in there and show the world. I've been waiting on management, promoters, team, to be right, mentally and physically, and give everybody what they want to see [against LaManna].' The biggest difference in the fight game from when Charlo was last the champ, to now, isn't just what Alalshikh brings to boxing, but also the presence of internet sensation Jake Paul. The sport 'is picking up.' Jermall Charlo was sensation in his most recent fight against Jose Benavidez Jr. () (David Becker via Getty Images) 'We're getting back to where we left off," Charlo said. "A lot of things have changed. It's a different era, we're going to the last part of the 2020s and it's a new generation of boxers, going from real-world champions, out of weight classes — which is crazy to me — getting to a point where Floyd [Mayweather] fought a big guy [Logan Paul], now it's going to YouTube, random rappers becoming boxers. You can be a painter, and as long as you can talk a little bit, it can be a pay-per-view bout. It's different.' Advertisement Though there are others, few have crossed over from the influencer scene as well as Paul, who has an 11-1 (7 KOs) pro record and has brought many of the world's best female fighters under one roof at Most Valuable Promotions — a firm he co-founded alongside former UFC executive Nikisa Bidarian. Paul returns June 28 against former champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. at a Golden Boy co-promoted show on DAZN. 'He was the first one to do it,' Charlo said of Paul, before remarking that other creators from YouTube are now 'over-saturating' the market and not respecting the sport. 'They haven't known how to put blood, sweat, and tears into it. That's when they're not taking boxing that serious.' Charlo wants to take the sport 'back to how it used to be,' he said. 'Boxing is not the same no more.' The sport in the U.S. would no doubt get a boost from a more active Charlo — one who is serious about boosting America's standing in the fight game. The biggest question that remains, though, is while he appears back to his old self outside of the ring, it's unclear, after another 18 months away, whether Charlo can still be his old self inside of it.

Caleb Plant laser-focused on Jermall Charlo after Jose Armando Resendiz: 'I'm going to step on him'

When Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney co-headlined a show against different opponents at Times Square on May 2, plans were in place for the two rivals to meet in a long-awaited rematch in October if both had won. Instead, Rolando "Rolly" Romero tore up the script and upset Garcia by unanimous decision, forcing plans for a Garcia vs. Haney rematch to be temporarily shelved. Caleb Plant and Jermall Charlo hope to have better luck when they share a bill in separate fights Saturday at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas, with a view toward sharing the ring with each other later this year should both emerge successful against Jose Armando Resendiz and Thomas LaManna, respectively. Advertisement "I will say this has been happening in boxing for years and years and years, I mean tens and twenties and thirties of years," Plant told Uncrowned's "The Ariel Helwani Show." "It's been going on since way back — two guys get on a card, main event and co-main, and then they run it after that. "Now, as of recently, there have been some mishaps. You spoke to the Devin and the Ryan situation, and you know, it was [always a possible outcome]. I did want to go right into the Charlo fight, but obviously he's been inactive for a little bit, and he wanted to get active and get a tune-up fight or whatever you want to call it. And I felt like this was my fastest way to a big fight that I really wanted." Advertisement "At the time, [Saul] 'Canelo' [Alvarez] and [William] Scull were busy," Plant continued. "[Jaime] Munguia was busy with Bruno [Surace], Edgar Berlanga doesn't want to fight, so I can't force his hand. ... This was my fastest way to a big fight, so I did what I had to do." Charlo has recorded just one ring appearance in almost four years — an underwhelming 10-round decision win over Jose Benavidez Jr. in November 2023. In the past few years, the former middleweight champion has been battling drug and alcohol addictions, as well as mental health issues, so it's understandable why he'd want an easier return fight before potentially taking on Plant later this year. Plant (23-2, 14 KOs) and Charlo's rivalry infamously escalated at the weigh-in for the Terence Crawford vs. Errol Spence fight in July 2023, where Plant was filmed delivering an open-handed slap to Charlo's face. Plant claimed that Charlo disrespected his marriage and grabbed him by the beard, so he was forced to retaliate. Another foe floated for Plant, aside from Charlo, was the once-beaten contender Edgar Berlanga. Berlanga challenged Alvarez for the unified super middleweight title this past September but lost comfortably by decision. Plant and Berlanga have engaged in a public back-and-forth in recent months, which began during the buildup to Berlanga's bout with Alvarez. Plant faced Trevor McCumby on the undercard. Advertisement "I think it's more for just promo," Plant said of Berlanga's desire to fight. "My manager has reached out to his manager and we wanted to do something, I think it was in late July, and now here he is fighting in late July anyway, I believe. As of now, I've got a big fight on my hands and I'm not too focused on him. Like I said, if he wants to be part of the witness protection program and doesn't want to fight, I can't force his hand." Although much of the talk this week remains on his rivalry with Charlo, Plant refuses to look past the man who'll be standing in front of him on Saturday. For the 26-year-old Resendiz (15-2, 11 KOs), a win would be life-changing, and Plant knows well how much that can spur on an underdog. But one thing's for certain: Resendiz will not be emulating Scull on Saturday. When given an opportunity on a televised card, Resendiz has shown that comes to fight. Exciting and competitive bouts with Jarett Hurd, Elijah Garcia and Marcos Hernandez have ensured that Resendiz continues to be a feature on Al Haymon's Premier Boxing Champions' cards. "This is a big moment for him," Plant said of Resendiz. "I've said this in a lot of interviews leading up to now — I remember what it was like for me coming up and having a big moment like this, and how much it meant to me and how hard I worked for it. And I'm assuming that he's coming with the same mindset, [the] same mentality, so he has to be taken seriously. Caleb Plant faced off against Saul "Canelo" Alvarez in November 2021. (PATRICK T. FALLON/AFP via Getty Images) (PATRICK T. FALLON via Getty Images) "He stopped Jarrett Hurd at 160 [pounds], now he's moved up to '68 and got a win there, and looking to come and take my interim title. So I know he's tough, I know he's coming to lay it all on the line, but my skills are far superior and there's levels to this. The experience that I've had facing all the world champions I've fought: 'Canelo,' David Benavidez, former two-time world champ Anthony Dirrell, Jose Uzcategui [was a] world champ, even [Rogelio] Medina was a tough competitor, a tough title eliminator. Advertisement "I feel like all that experience will be a major key in this fight. I've had a great camp. I'm super focused, super locked in and I'm going to step on him." Plant hopes that a strong win streak at super middleweight will eventually lead to a second meeting with Alvarez. But Alvarez already has a tough task in front of him with the former two-division undisputed champion and pound-for-pound star Terence Crawford in September. Despite the two-division gap in weight between Alvarez and Crawford, Plant refuses to rule out Crawford's chances. "I give [Crawford] a shot. I don't know who wins, and obviously there's weight classes for a reason, but at the same time, Terence is a special, special person," Plant said. "Special ability, special mental fortitude, special strength, and you can't put too much past Terence Crawford, especially once he's got his mind made up and really wants it, so we'll see. Advertisement "I think both have things that fall in their favor, but that's what makes this so interesting. That's why everybody is going to tune in to see what's going to go on, to see what's going to happen. When it's two special fighters like this, I think it's most fair to just let the bell ring and let them handle it. "I feel like this Crawford-Canelo matchup will be a lot more fan-friendly [than Alvarez vs. Scull]," Plant continued. "'Bud' isn't just going to be running around the ring for 12 rounds, I can assure you that. That's not in his blood, and obviously not Canelo's either, so I think it's going to be a fan-friendly fight."
