"She may not be here, but her spirit still lives within me." - Caleb Plant

This is our edit of Caleb Plant's emotional story of losing his daughter and how he still pushes forward, with his energy and with hers. We hope you enjoy it! It took a lot of time to edit but we wanted to really showcase Caleb's fascinating story.

Caleb “Sweethands” Plant, 27, is a rising star with the skills to match. The bigger the stage, the better the performance from the Nashville, Tennessee native, as proven when he wrested the world title away from the incumbent, Jose Uzcategui, in January 2019. With a record of 20-0, including 12 KO's, Plant’s story is far from complete, but his journey thus far is already compelling.

From humble beginnings, boxing quickly became an outlet for Caleb. His father Richie, a former kickboxer, introduced his son to combat sports at age nine. Caleb went on to compile a 97-20 amateur record, winning several championships in Tennessee.

"Sweethands” made his pro debut at 21 and won his first five fights, four of them inside the distance. But in January 2015, tragedy struck. Plant’s only child, daughter Alia Jean, died from an extremely rare condition she was born with.

Before she passed, Caleb promised her that he would become a world champion one day. He returned to the ring two months later and was ready for a world title. He was granted that opportunity when he took on IBF World 168-pound Champion Jose Uzcategui at the Microsoft Center in Los Angeles.

Caleb Plant out-boxed and out-brawled the favored Uzcategui, dropping the Venezuelan once in the second, and again in the fourth, and overcoming a cut over his right eye to win a 12-round unanimous decision.

An emotional Plant said afterward, “I worked my whole entire life for this, boxing 17 hard years. This is overwhelming. I believed in myself and now I’ve been crowned king.
“I buried my daughter in the process of getting this belt. I promised I would bring her this, and that’s what I’m going to do.”
