Plant and Charlo to Fight on May 31 — Insider

According to insider Mike Coppinger (The Ring), interim WBA super middleweight champion Caleb Plant (23-2, 14 KOs) and unbeaten contender Jermall Charlo (33-0, 22 KOs) will both return to the ring on May 31 in Las Vegas, USA, fighting on the same card.

Plant is set to face Jose Armando Resendiz (15-2, 11 KOs), while Charlo will meet Thomas LaManna (39-5-1, 18 KOs).

If both fighters win, they are expected to square off in a high-profile bout in fall 2025.

Caleb Plant last fought in September, scoring a ninth-round TKO over Trevor McCumby.

Jermall Charlo last stepped into the ring in November 2023, defeating Jose Benavidez via unanimous decision — one of only two fights Charlo has had since 2021.

Tensions between the two fighters have existed for a while. In July 2023, Plant famously slapped Charlo backstage at the Crawford vs. Spence weigh-in.
