Video: Caleb Plant smacks Jermall Charlo backstage at Errol Spence vs. Terence Crawford ceremonial weigh-ins

Errol Spence and Terence Crawford fight Saturday, but backstage at Friday’s weigh-ins, two other boxers engaged in a physical altercation.

In a video posted by Michael Benson on Twitter, Caleb Plant smacked Jermall Charlo with an open hand, which audibly sounded throughout the vicinity and nearly ignited a brawl at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

It’s unclear as to what specifically triggered the altercation prior to the strike. Plant was quickly ushered away by a man who appeared to be a security guard. While Charlo did not strike back, he briefly followed Plant until he was rerouted by bystanders.

“Don’t you ever grab me by my motherf*cking face again like that, boy,” Plant yelled as he was dragged out a side door, seemingly indicating physical contact had occurred prior to the slap.

Plant, 31, is a former IBF super middleweight champion, who most notably fought Canelo Alvarez in November 2021. Charlo, 33, is the current WBC middleweight champion. He has not competed since June 2021.

Update (9:00 p.m. ET): A second video published by Twitter user Latisha Crawford shows more violence in the T-Mobile Arena parking lot. After the camera pans away from a departing Charlo, two women are shown fighting on the hot top. Check out that video below.
