History is set to be made in Las Vegas where Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez (56-1-2, 38 KOs) or Caleb Plant (21-0, 12 KOs) will be crowned the first undisputed at super-middleweight in the four belt era.
For Canelo, this is the end of an 11 month quest to win all the 168lb world titles which started with a win against WBC and WBA champion Callum Smith last December, and then a stoppage victory against Billy Joe Saunders in Texas five months later for the WBO belt.
Now all that stands in Canelo's way is IBF champion Caleb Plant who is a huge underdog for this fight.
Plant certainly has the tools to trouble Canelo, but whether he can use them effectively and beat the Mexican is a different story.
