So much for the prospective showdown between Caleb Plant and Jermall Charlo.
Armando Resendiz likely derailed that with a shocking split-decision victory over Plant Saturday night in their 12-round fight for the WBA interim super middleweight title.
The judges scored it 116-112, 113-115 and 116-112 in favor of Resendiz, who entered the night as a decisive underdog.
Charlo had won earlier in the night to set up the possible showdown with Plant, who failed to do his part in the main event.
“He caught me with one overhand right that was pretty good,’’ Plant said during an in-ring interview. “But other than that, nothing really hurt me or stopped me. Disappointed, obviously.’’
