In what was supposed to be a night to test the Ashland City contender Caleb Plant for the first time in his career turned out to be no more than a pop quiz as the one they call "Sweet Hands" did all the schooling on Saturday night.
In what was billed as an IBF Super Middleweight title eliminator, Porky Medina once again stood in the way of a young hungry fighter ready to make his claim as the best the 168 lbs division has to offer. Medina has been used as a stepping stone for current or former world champions Badou Jack, James DeGale, David Benavidez and Gilberto Ramirez. This fight served to see if Plant was ready to add his name to the top crop of best fighters at Super Middleweight.
As expected, Porky put on the pressure, willingly chasing his opponent around the ring looking to land something meaningful to earn respect. However, it was Caleb who played matador as he seemingly took Medina apart with counter and lead left hooks while peppering him with jabs the entire night. It was a masterful display of ring generalship as Plant cruised to a 12 round unanimous decision win that places him as in the #2 spot in the IBF world rankings.
