He then claimed the WBA (Super) and WBC titles with a unanimous decision over Callum Smith in December 2020 and the WBO title with an eighth-round finish of Billy Joe Saunders in May.
Plant won the IBF title in January 2019 with a unanimous decision over Jose Uzcategui. He had since retained the title against Mike Lee, Vincent Feigenbutz and Caleb Truax.
