Comments Thread For: David Morrell's Trainer Believes David Benavidez Clash May Happen Next

[ShoulderRoll]

Benavidez held the belt that Canelo has. He's now his mandatory challenger and doesn't need Morrell to make him "an attractive opponent for Canelo."

Canelo is going to try to get revenge against Bivol next.

In the meantime Benavidez and Morrell can fight each other to make a Canelo fight even bigger and more lucrative. Are you denying that?

[Mofias]

That was not my point. Rather people wanted it or not is irrelevant to my post. The guy said Canelo was cherrypicking easy money fights. He moved up to 175 & fought one of the top guys & lost convincingly. Wanting a rematch with Bivol at 175 I wouldn’t say is a cherrypick easy fight. That was my point…

Bivol was Cherry-Pick gone wrong

$100M was offered to Canelo fight Charlo and Benevidez at that time.
He chose $15M against an Unexciting Bivol

Because Morrell is relatively new to the pro ranks and is hardly known, I fail to see how Benavidez fighting him benefits anyone but Morrell, if he should win. Of course, it's up to Benavidez. If he wants to fight him, sure, go for it.

Please elaborate on the leapfrog and the ones "scraping and clawing their way". Please mention one of two of them, especially if they're better than Morrell Jr.

Well, I imagine that Morrell is interested in fighting Benavidez because he is the mandatory to challenge for the WBC strap, and he's the interim champion. So, the guys who are ahead of him are ranked by the WBC as follows: (1)Mbilli- 24-0 (2)Bazinyan- 29-0, (3)Akhmedov- 19-1, (4) Plant- 22-2, (5) Andrade- 32-0. Morrell beat the #6 guy in Falcao. How the hell does unranked 9-0 Morrell jump to the front of the line, after beating the #6 guy?

Because he is mandatory for the WBA, he ain't jumping ahead of nobody. i don't count his belt as a real Champ, but I do see him as a #1 ranked for that governing body where's canelo hold the real belt.

Don't waste your time. He doesn't want to see two young studs exchanging blows.

I saw that ranking. Politics.

I'm not that concerned about Morrell fighting Benavidez, if David B wants that fight. But I wonder why you're not so enthusiastic to see Benavidez vs Canelo? That's the bigger fight, by far. The former 2-time WBC champ facing the top draw in boxing, who holds The WBC strap now. You can't possibly not want that fight and call yourself a boxing fan!

[garfios]

I'd love to see that fight first. Actually benavidez should be the one fighting tomorrow, not ryder. But canelo has avoided that fight from the moment he moved to SMW. If you read my posts about benavidez and canelo, you will find out that I'm all for it.

[garfios]

I have to laugh, is politics when serves your narrative. Almost all the rankings are politics, 95% of all those fighters you mentioned, are ranked because politics. But you we're the one that brought up "ranking". I show you that he wasn't frogleaping. Instead of acknowledging your error, you turn around and say is politics. You shouldn't mention rankings. Be safe.
