By comparison, Resendiz, a decent fighter, is 15-2 with 11 stoppages. He is a powerful, high-volume pressure fighter who needs to be on the inside to find success. Unfortunately, he doesn't move his head, doesn't cut off the ring, and relies too much on his toughness for defense.
Resendiz is tailor-made for Plant to piece up on the counter, and that is the likely outcome.
The Prediction: Caleb Plant via unanimous decision
#2. WBA Continental Americas super middleweight title: Jermall Charlo vs. Thomas LaManna
The co-main event for Caleb Plant vs. Armando Resendiz is, in simple terms, a mismatch. The 33-0 Jermall Charlo, with 22 stoppages, makes his highly anticipated return against the unheralded Thomas LaManna, who is 35-5 with 14 stoppages.
Charlo is a powerful jabber with a sharp eye. He sets up his power punches well and applies steady pressure. LaManna is also a jabber, but with more output. Unfortunately, he isn't powerful or fast and seems to be chinny. Charlo should figure him out in the first half of the fight and stop him in a one-sided affair.
The Prediction: Jermall Charlo via TKO
