Comments Thread For: Benavidez's promoter says Morrell fight should marinate until 2025

[boxingitis]

How is Morrell a nobody the biggest money fight Benavidez can make? Hardcores only know him because he has been clout chasing Benavidez. He is a nobody.

Canelo Vs Benavidez
Bivol vs Benavidez
Beterbiev Vs Benavidez
even Benavidez vs Mungia would have been bigger before Mungia fought Canelo.

Because Morrell is a nobody, and Benavidez needs a dance partner. Its not a profitable match up atm. Im surprised you still want your boy to fight David considering how crap he looked last week.

But they did want them to fight him 4 years ago with only 5 fights, what make him less known 3, 4 years later with double the fights?

A fake Belt. (Regular Belt) Not the "real" Champion. I found a better one in less than 1 second of thought.
Morrell has beaten absolutely no one, it's a fact.
Canelo doesn't fight Benavidez for the Same reason Tank doesn't fight Shakur and Crawford doesn't fight Ennis. It's the biggest money fights they can make, yet they don't do it.

The "real" champion is a fraud and we were talking about resumes keep moving the goalposts. You found one similar to DMJ, so Madrimov is special, not the Cuban?

[garfios]

not quite "never" then but very rarely

Back in the 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 they were always Cubans involved in big fights, Kid Chocolate, Tunero, Gavilan and a few others, you guys seems to forgot that the communism closed the door for professional sports in Cuba for over 60 years, what you have seen is a very little % of what Cuba has to offer.

I like Cuban fighters and styles BUT they are not promoted well by American promoters so they are almost never the A side - maybe Morrell and Cruz an change that

Lmao why did Benny look good against old fughin Gvodzyk ???
They both looked horrible and should try to hibernate at 168 for as long as they can

Well Al Haymon or Turki should make it happen. They can put it on the Bivol vs Beterbiev undercard. I'm pretty sure Al Haymon is marinating to get a good return. Morrell didn't look to impressive now that he wasn't a weight bully at 175. Morrell is like Vergil at 147, used their weight advantage cause they are young and were able to cut weight. Morrell did not look "special" at 175.

That was his first fight at 175 against a good opponent, I have heard. By the way, he never fought a guy coming up from 154 nor 160, so the weight bully statement is wrong unless you're referring to canelo. Be accurate, people would respect you if you hold your belief with dignity and truth.

Canelo went from 160 to 175, two weight Classes higher for Kovalev. You judge Canelo for that, but never praise for doing exactly the opposite. Just say you hate him.

Morrell is not impressive, he gets outbox by Bivol and stopped by Beterbiev at 175. Never seen Morrell even try to fight a Champ at 175, something Canelo did twice being the height of Teo Lopez. Morrell weight bully days are Over.

Promotion is a big part of the equation, the other is they are avoided like the plague, so it is hard to get noticed. You saw DMJ didn't look spectacular, let's wait and see how many would jump at the chance to share the ring with him. Look at Rigondeaux, he was old when he defected and the surrounding champions refused to fight him, quigg, mares, St+, frampton, they all ran away from the guy, his promoter blacklisted him after Nonito's, the WBA took his belt for no reason, Gamboa, Mickey Garcia didn't fight him, and he was #1 mandatory and a belt holder, bob arum didn't want him to pitch his portorican star Lopez against him and got knock the fo by salido, Hurtado never fought for a title with a full camp, one week and 10 days, still he got everybody nervous against Whitaker and Tzuy. One thing for sure, Cubans boxers are not here for a hand out, they will fight everyone regardless of their name and status, and after going through hell to abandon the Island.
