Malignaggi Urges Plant To Assess Career After Devastating Resendiz Loss

Paulie Malignaggi Says Caleb Plant Needs Whether He has Hunger to Hunger to His Career After His Loss to Armando Resendiz Last Saturday Night in Las Vegas.

Plant’s Hunger Questioned

The WBA Interim Super Middleweight Champion Plant (23-3, 14 kos) Lost 12-round split decision to resendiz (26-2, 11 kos). Caleb’s Loss potentially derailed His Plans to Fight Jermall Charlo Next on PPV.

Malingaggi Says Heesn’t Know IF Plant Hunger to Continue Fighting, Because He’s Already Made Good Money and has a family. He Questions Whether Caleb Is Willing To Put In The Effort Against Hungry Fighters Like Resendiz.

He looked Hungry To Me, But Was A Guy With A Chin, Power, And An Inside Game. Plant Couldn’t Hold Resendiz off the Outside, And He Was Getting Beaten Up On The Inside.

“I Don’t Know. He didn’t look Hung Had Faculties. IF He’s not hungry Anymore. He didn’t look hungry to me tonight,” said Paulie Malignaggi on His channel About Caleb Plant After His Loss to Armando Resendiz Last Saturday.

‘SweetHands’ Loked The Same As Usual, But He Was Getting Hit With A Lot Of Hard Shots From a Younger Fighter Who Was Putting It Him. The Big Shots That Plant Landed That Had Given Older, Lesser Fighters Like Anthony Dirrell and Trevor McCumby Problems Did Not Affect Resendiz.

Plant: “Fighting Not to Lease”

“Fighting Not to Lease. The Jermall Charlo Fights. “Resendiz Wasn’t Cooperating. So, Now You’re Got to Fight Thes Guys.”

Plant Was Fighting Like Hea’d Always Done; His Talent Wasn’t Sufficient to Beat This Level of A Fighter. If You Go Back and Watch Plant’s Earlier Fights Against Jose Uzcategui, Caleb Truax, and Vincent Feigenbutz, He Looked The Same Against Them As He Did the Resensendiz Fight.

The Difference Was That Resendiz Was His Pressure in Those Fighters in His Pressure, Inside Game, And Punch Resistance. If Plant Had Foodt Resendiz Earlier in His Career, He’d Have Lost To Him Just Last Saturday Night. In Other Words, Plant Was Never As Good As Boxing Fans Thought.

“AS The Fight On the Fight In Him Because Now, You Have Did You (Trevor) McCumby Fight Allow You. Especially when It Gets And You’ve Made Made Money. It’s Much Tougher to Bring That You, Especially Consistently With That Age With All Those Varianbles I Just Mentioned.

Charlo-Resendiz Fight discussed

“Resendiz Has Two Big Wins. NOW, ALL A SUDDEN, YOU DO DO DO YOU NOW NOW CHARLO AND RESENDIZ?” Said Paulie.

As Long As Jermall’s Promoters Are Okay With His Next Fight On Being On Regular PBC Prime VideoWon’t be a good idea. However, Charlo’s Management Will likly want to Him to His Next Fight. Now That Plant has Lost, it should be a foolish idea to proceed with the Original Plan for a Planlo Fight.

Charlo has been out of the game for Too Many Years to Sell on Pay-Per-View. Even If Plant Had Won Last Saturday, A Fight Between Him and Charlo Wouldn’t Have Pay-Per-View on Done Numbers. There aren’t enough Older Fans Who Would Want to Pay $ 75 to Watch Those Two.

“Do We Make Charlo-Resendiz Because We Still Don’t know how much Charlo has left,” Said Paulie. “The Resurgence Continues. It is a super Fight and Wouldn’t be a super Fight Like Charlo and Plant Were Goodnight to Be Super Fight Anyway.”

PBC Would Have to Believe That Charlo Would Do Victorious For Them To Give Him The Green Light to Face Recendiz. Based on His Performance Against Lamanna, I Wouldn’t do It IF I Were With PBC.

Charlo Was Getting Hit Too Often By Lamanna For Him to Be With With With A Guy Like Resendiz. Those Shots That Resendiz Was Hitting Plant With The Inside Would Jermall A Lot Of People. He’s Been Out of Game For Too Years, And He’s Too Old To Be Getting Hit by A 26-year-Old Resendiz.

“But this Fighting Makes Steps to BACK JERMALL CHARLO, It’s Win Way Now. A Win Over Plant and Hurd Hurd. He has a pretty decent resume Paulie.

It should be a good Win for Jermall If He Beat Resendiz, and It Would Potentially Lead to A Fight Against Edgar Berlanga, Diego Pacheco, or Christian Milli. It’s Doubtful That Canelo Would Be Eager to Fight Charlo. He Would Only Take A Fight With Charlo If Turki AleSkikh Offered Him A Bunch of Money. He’s not taking risks unless He’s Paid Huge Money. It Would Have To Be Initiated By Turkey.

PBC’s Charlo Comeback Concerns

“BUT IF Resendiz Beats Charlo, Hey Adds His Resume. Either Way, The Winner Can Be Set Up Nicely In The 168-LB Division,” Said Malignaggi.

It Doesn’t Seem Realistic That Charlo’s Handlers Will Let Him Tangle Resendiz After Last Saturday’s Performances. Jermall didn’t shine enough Against Thomas Lamanna to Risk Putting Him in Resendiz, And Have Him Land The Kinds of Shots Was Hitting Plant.

We saw what avert average-looking Juan Macias Montiel Did to Jermall Four Years ago. Charlo loked Hey only 50% Of He’d Been Against Montiel, But Fortunately For Him, He Was Facing A Journeyman, Not Someone Like Resendiz.
