Plant vs McCumby

Last Saturday, Canelo Alvarez fought Edgar Berlanga. You can tell Canelo is no longer in his prime, but nonetheless it was a good fight. While this event was going on, down the street was UFC Noche at the Sphere.

When I heard that these two events were going on. I thought it was going to be a repeat of the last time UFC had their PPV event the same day of a Canelo fight back in 2019. On MMA's side, It was UFC 244: Jorge Masvidal vs Nate Diaz for the BMF title, and on the boxing side, it was Canelo vs Sergey Kovalev. Despite Canelo having more star power, DAZN stalled the event until UFC was done with their title fight. I remember this day vividly, because I was watching both events simultaneously. While UFC was having a boring main event with Masvidal toying with Diaz and ending in a doctor stoppage, the DAZN broadcast kept cutting to both boxers in their room laying on the couch half sleep.

However, that wasn't the case this time around. Both events were on the same day, but neither side had to delay their main event. UFC's main event, Sean O'Malley vs Merab Dvalishvili started right after Canelo's fight. I didn't watch UFC Noche outside of the main event, but from what I heard it was the same as any other PPV but with better video effects due to being at the Sphere.

Dana White really tried to hype this as "the greatest event ever!". He was so confident in that statement that he was charging $1,200 for the cheap-seats, but not confident enough to disclose the PPV buys days after the event (UFC hasn't consistently disclose this information as much as they use to). I guess the numbers weren't better than Canelo's 650k PPV buys.

Anyway, the fight that I was most interested in was Caleb Plant vs Trevor Mccumby. I've been following Plant since he won the IBF title back in 2019. He's fun a character. After losing his fight with Canelo, I thought he was going to be a hallow version of himself and soon retire, but he didn't. He ended up knocking out Anthony Dirrell in his next fight. Dirrell was old, but still, it looked like Plant got his mojo back after the Canelo loss. Then, he fought David Benavidez (Canelo's current boogieman) and lost via decision. Plant was outmatched, but didn't get knocked down, so thats gotta count for something, right?

Against Mccumby, Plant was slipping and sliding all over the place in the beginning. He then got the ringrust knocked out of him as he was knocked down in the fourth round. After that, he started putting pressure on Mccumby. Both fighters were taunting each other throughout the fight. They were really playing it up for the audience, and they were loving it, and so did I. Plant won the fight via decision.

What will be next for Caleb Plant? Who knows. All I know is that he isn't ready for a rematch with Canelo or Benavidez.

Knocking off the #ringrust with Meyer Square using the short edge for all four cuts. It’s nice to not have snow and ice on the parking pad for once. :) #yyc #calgary #yycmartialarts #martialarts #medieval #sword #fight #swordfight #hema #fencing #longsword #practicemakesperfect #technique #joachimmeyer #pavelmoc #doesntfeellikespring #socialdistancing #selfisolation (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-x_d_mnZKw/?igshid=18a1gw2vgjgb7

Finally got my little setup up & going, until I can put some more dough together to put my DJ equipment back together, & find a bigger place to set up shop, but I guess in the meantime this will have to do. My first #LateNightSession in over a year, had to start with something #organic just to get a bit of the #RingRust off before I start messing with #sampling, but boy does this shit knock, lol, girlfriend doesn't like it, but screw it, it's what keeps me sane & outta trouble, lol, she can stay there & I'll stay out #chea...#StayTuned for more things to come for sure. I know #MyBrother @sincereonez, is looking down & happy I'm finally getting it accomplished, & I know he's sitting with me while I put it all together, #DoingIt for #MyBroski #DaddyGang #BrotherHood...#InHouseProduction #StudioLife #MusicLife #HipHop #RnB #EDM #Trap #FingerDrumming #Akai #Oxygen #Midi #Keyboard (at New Britain, Connecticut)

that makes sense! and I agree with that statement; if they were gonna put the title on punk they should’ve made SURE he was good to go, waiting at least a year or a year and a half to make sure his ringrust was off completely.

I’ll for sure side with you on the timing because I honestly felt hangman was due longer than this, and had more to go. i feel like he could’ve taken in at least two more big challengers in his reign before dropping it to someone who was built to become the next star.

either way, I hope punk is okay. i will be watching carefully to see how tony khan handles this bc if hangman doesn’t get another shot at his title I will be. Vengeful lmao

Kenny omega did not wrestle for like that whole year with the shoulders and the knees and the vertigo to give Hangman the story he deserved just so hangman could lose the title to Punk and Punk relinquish it a week later because of an injury I’m gonna SCREAM
