Video shows Canelo and Caleb Plant stop hitting each other to have a chat during their box office fight

• Caleb Plant and Saul Alvarez stopped punching each other to have a chat Saturday.
• The two super middleweights were vying for the undisputed championship in Las Vegas.

Footage shows Saul "Canelo" Alvarez and Caleb Plant stopped hitting each other to have a chat during their box office fight Saturday at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

The match was one of the most significant boxing had to offer, as it produced an undisputed super middleweight world champion, with Alvarez adding Plant's IBF title to the three - WBA, WBC, and WBO - he had previously claimed.

Alvarez is the sport's No.1 fighter with no clear challenger to his dominance at 168-pounds, or the division higher at light heavyweight (175-pounds).

Plant, though, showed toughness in what was ultimately an 11th round stoppage loss.

Like others before him, the American eventually wilted to Alvarez's seemingly unrivaled prowess.

But moments before Plant was knocked out, he engaged Canelo in conversation.

Sometimes, in combat sports, we've seen trash talk continue from pre-fight hype into the ring, or cage. Plant and Alvarez instead talked about how much they were enjoying the fight.

The conversation went like this:

Caleb Plant: "You're pretty good. Am I pretty good?"

Canelo Alvarez: "Yeah."

Plant: "This is a good fight right here."

Alvarez: "I like it."

Plant: "I respect your skills."

Alvarez: "I know."

Plant: "I'm pretty good for 21-0, huh."

Plant then hit him with a jab to the midsection, ending the chat.

Alvarez became the first person to defeat Plant when he knocked him out two rounds later to advance his pro boxing record to 57 wins (39 knockouts) against one loss and two draws.

It is unclear who he might fight next but he has numerous options.

Alvarez could seek a trilogy bout with Gennady Golovkin on DAZN, or a light heavyweight test against Artur Beterbiev or Dmitry Bivol.

Should he wish to remain on a pay-per-view platform like Showtime, then he could fight another Premier Boxing Champions fighter like Jermall Charlo or David Benavidez.
