The Mexican now advanced himself as the mandatory challenger to Canelo Alvarez’s Super middleweight champion status.

Benavidez was more accurate with his punches and left Plant with a bruised face.

Plant was bleeding from his head and face, which didn’t shun his charm in the ring.

However, it wasn’t an easy fight for Benavidez today.
