    Plant probably. Monzon is a different planet in talent but never fought at super middleweight and was a small middleweight

    Hear me out. Monzon was a small amiddleweight who fought in a ho hum middleweight era. Yes he did stop Napoles who was small and not a real 160lber, and only doing it for the money apparently. Plants a big and talented dude. He could box well enough but I still see Monzon getting him later because it makes the most sense to me.

    Can you imagine what the likes of Eugene Hart and Bennie Briscoe would do to Caleb Plant?

    Hi Buddy.
    Must say didn't think I would ever hear Monzon described as small ! but... as for the " ho hum " these were not bad fighters, were they :
    Griffith, Boutier, Briscoe, Benvenuti, Valdes, well I don't think so, but if that's your opinion, fair enough.
    stay safe turbotine, chat soon.

    How has this plant guy shown that he is anything more than just a regional talent? Someone who is good enough to hold a ebu belt and ibc belt or a nabo belt or something like that but as far as being world class? If losing to world class fighters was enough then sure.

    from what i've seen (which ain't that much), Caleb would be looking slick and awesome like SRR for 5 rounds and then start to look a bit out of sorts and then suddenly fall down and go to sleep without too much fuss
