Benavidez and Plant successfully weighed in for their upcoming fight in Las Vegas, both comfortably under the 168 lb limit. Thereafter, Plant even touched Benavidez’s chin before they were separated.

“We were just exchanging pleasantries, telling each other how much we like each other. He’s been talking a lot about how much he’s going to whip my ass. We’re gonna see tomorrow. I win in fashion, get my hand raised in fashion,” Plant

“He tried to put his finger in my face and I had to push his ass back, but he knows what’s up. His man’s gonna have to pick him up off the fuckin’ ground when he’s leaking all that blood. It speaks for itself. I’m on weight, I’ve been on weight all week, and I’m ready to take this motherfucker’s head off,” Benavidez
