It is now official that Caleb plant will defend its 168-pound WBA-Tuss-entire tape against Jose Armando Resendiz in the main event, and Jermall Charlo will come out of the moth balls to fight the capable Thomas Lamanna on May 31, directly on the PBC Championship box.

Road to a super fight
Plant and Jermall take easy showcase fights to get them ready to fight against each other. The idea is that they should look like pure gold, beat their low-level opponents to promote the appetite of fans and then set up a PPV clash between them later this year. Planting against Charlo is still not a big battle for pay-pervention. It is more focused on fans who remember these two when they were on top of their game.
While planting against Rosendiz and Charlo against Lamanna is not a PPV card, fans will still have to have an excellent membership on Amazon to see the 31st event. The membership costs $ 14.99 a month or $ 139 annually, so it’s not free. If fans really love the matches, they will jump for it.
The only problem is that these two fighters are considered terrible maladjustments without hope to be competitive. It is understandable why the 35-year-old former World Champion of two Jermall Charlo (33-0, 22 COs) is choosing to fight Lamanna (39-5-1, 18 COs), considering that he has only been fought once since 2021.
With that kind of inactivity, Jermall needs a tune-up because he has been out of the ring for too long, and he has not lived a Spartan lifestyle for too long. You want to think that Charlo has been practicing for years, but unfortunately he didn’t.
Tune-up time
The one who criticizes here is the former IBF Super Middleweight Champion Plant because he was active and already on September 14 last year against Trevor McCumby a fight against a fight against a fight against Trevor McCumby. Plant does not need another warm -up fight. He must face a highly ranking like Osleys Iglesias, but of course we know why he doesn’t fight against him.
“On May 31, I arrive a show and leave no doubt that I am one of the best in the world,” Plant said.
“I know it’s going to be a difficult fight, but I will prepare as hard as possible to win and dedicate this victory to my beloved Mexico,” Resendiz said.
