Morrell has been calling out Benavidez ever since I can remember to the point of becoming an annoyance to the father and son team. Benavidez Sr finally had it and offered the fight months ago to Morrell, which is a fight they're 110% ready for because they've been inactive and desperate for fights at that time.
And what was Morrell's camp reaction? He's not ready yet and fought another guy.
And you're saying Benavidez should give them what they want when Morrell and his trainer basically snubbed them when they were offering the fight.
If you are offered a job which you applied for, but rejected it, would you have the nerve to come back later and say you made a mistake? Or would you be angry that they no longer want you?
Anyways, apparently, Benavidez Sr is the one deciding for his son's next fights. The son trains and fights, the father handles the business side.
Morell jr didn't snub benavidez, nor Shields. I think it was the first fight he worked was the kid, and he said he was not ready for benavidez three fights ago. He's on board now.
It's one of the best alternatives for Videz.
Look at where Morrell is ranked.
Videz should call Morrell's bluff now and say let's do it.
Do you think it is a bluff? Because not even 3 fights ago was a bluff. Shields just started to work with Morell jr, and said he thought the kid wasn't ready.
Good point, but still doesn't explain why Videz didn't respond to Morrell's callouts to step in the ring while Videz was ringside. Fighters should step up to call uts especially when at the same venue.
Wholeheartedly agree. Idk why either. Maybe cause of their bad blood? Mightve got out of hand...
Hey, I’m not saying I don’t want to see this fight. Haha This is probably the one bout I’d like to see right now. Not only are these two studs similarly talented, but the motivation to win would be intense. I think it would be explosive.

WHatever it is, Benavidez should respond as opposed to being so quiet.

I don't think so, Benavidez is the type of guy who will not back down,but this time being so quiet is definitely out of character for him. Quite odd...

He was at ringside fir Morell jr vs Falcao/tank vs ryan. I think Morrell Jr called him up to the ring. But I didn't see anything going on. One guy interviewed him and ask him about a possible fight against the Cuban. I couldn't hear what he said.
