“I feel really good," Plant said at his media day in Las Vegas."Last camp we brought in Breadman and we had a lot of great chemistry with the whole team. He’s easy to get along with and he just expects me to work hard. That’s right up our alley and that’s what we like to do. He brought some of that Philly grit with him and helped reiterate a lot of things that my dad [co-trainer Richie Plant] had been trying to instill in me.
Plant handled his business a little differently this time. At the event's kickoff news conference, Plant and Benavidez got into it verbally and went nose-to-nose several times. Plant then created a website, davidbenavidez.com, which redirects to Plant's official website.

Benavidez isn't a one-punch knockout artist, but has won 23 of his 26 bouts inside the distance. He wears them down and stops them.“You can see that every time Caleb is in the ring with a power puncher, he’s not comfortable," Benavidez said."He beat Jose Uzcategui but he was hurt in the fight and then Canelo hurt him.
