Anthony Dirrell is defeated by Caleb Plant in the ninth round. American Caleb Plant defeated his fellow countryman Anthony Dirrell in an International Boxing Federation (IBF) super middleweight eliminator in the evening’s less-than-stellar fight Wilder vs. Helenius.
Before being able to get back up, Dirrell required several minutes of in-ring medical attention. After the knockout, Plant made a degrading gesture by impersonating an undertaker to celebrate his triumph.
