Canelo vs Berlanga LIVE: Boxing superstar Alvarez knocks down challenger and wins on points

Round nine

Plant hurts McCumby to the body and pours on shots, switching to the head with a clean uppercut!

McCumby fires back briefly, but he’s in trouble in the corner. Plant sneaks a few hooks around McCumby’s guard now.

McCumby teeters somewhat away from the corner, only to find himself trapped in another.

Smart work from Plant, who attacks the body with a left hook then lands a right uppercut to the head.

OH! And Plant UNLEASHES a series of hooks in the final few seconds of the round, and McCumby starts to fall into the ropes – and the ref steps in! It’s all over!

Round seven

Nice little flurry from McCumby at close range, targeting Plant’s head exclusively. Plant creates space and moves forward.

Lovely counter one-two from Plant. McCumby grimaces now as Plant lets go with a prolonged combination.

McCumby rallies a little, though, late in the round.

Round eight

Both men bounce around, staying light on their feet. Plant drills two uppercuts onto the chin of McCumby – one with each hand.

He squeezes in another uppercut, after both fighters grapple and try to create space.

Strong counter left hook by McCumby. He taunts Plant, trying to get himself fired up.

Round six

A much better stint for Plant now. He’s the one taunting at the moment. Again he has McCumby stuck on the ropes and is unloading eclectic offence.

Plant with a beautiful right hook on the counter, then he looks to the crowd – a real moment of showmanship! He’s dancing in front of McCumby now. Where has McCumby’s swagger gone?

Big left hook from Plant! And another huge land on the bell!

Round five

Again Plant goes flying into the ropes. He’s been put off balance about four times – and down twice – by McCumby’s power, even though the punches in question have largely hit his arms and body. An odd fight.

But Plant again does well to respond positively; he backs up McCumby to the ropes and tees off in a prolonged spell, with fine variety and accuracy.

Round three

More mocking from McCumby as Plant misses again. But Plant is finding the target here and there.

Case and point: He lands a fine left hook now.

Round four

Some big swings and misses from both fighters on overhands. Plant looks to keep things neat with some jab work, instead of allowing the scrappy exchanges that McCumby wants.

But Plant is knocked down again! There’s another tangle of the feet, while McCumby hits the arm of Plant, and the latter tumbles!

McCumby flexes to the pro-Plant crowd. Plant gets back to his feet and looks to get back on the offence...

Round two

Nice variety from Plant with his lead hand. He’s changing angles well, too.

But McCumby puts the former champion off balance with a massive body shot! Plant stumbles into the ropes, then eats a hard cross upstairs as he sorts out his feet!

Plant shakes his head, but that was a bit of a hairy moment. Plant leaps forward but misses with a lead hook, and McCumby mocks him.

Oh! And Plant is down late in the round! It’s another heavy body shot from McCumby in the corner, and Plant seems to claim to the referee that it was a trip, but he looks hurt...

Round one

This one is for the WBA interim super-middleweight title, with Canelo defending the official belt later tonight – a strange situation.

Plant and the unbeaten McCumby stand orthodox. The latter jabs to the body early, before lunging in with heavier body shots.

Plant with the shot of the round, though, late on – snapping back McCumby’s head with a straight.

Next up is a super-middleweight bout between Caleb Plant and Trevor McCumby.

Plant is a former opponent of Canelo, who stopped the American in late 2021 to become undisputed in the division.

In fact, that result made Canelo the first undisputed super-middleweight champion ever.

Round 10

Final round. Jaimes ties up Romero then quickly tries to separate, remembering he needs to score right now.

He’s not connecting much, though, as Romero is doing a decent job at boxing smartly and maintaining range.

The final bell sounds, and we’ll go to the scorecards – where Romero surely gets the win.

Rolando Romero def. Manuel Jaimes via unanimous decision (99-91, 99-91, 99-91)

Yep, there it is. Comprehensive.

Round eight

Into the final few rounds. Romero just misses with an overhand right and left hook.

Jaimes backs up Romero to the ropes and leans on him, but Romero fires back with a mean right hook to the body.

A messy exchange now, with both men using their forearms to create space, and Romero manages to find a shot first.

Left uppercut lands for Romero! Better round for him.

Round nine

Hard left hook to the body by Romero, then a right to the head. Nice work.

Jaimes walks onto a left hook to the body again. Now one to the head. Romero is really finding his timing now.
