    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.
    the ginger used to weight 177 pounds the night of the fight, and he was fighting at 154 with 22 years, there's no bigger weight bully than canelo. And kovalev was/is a drunken past his prime fighting 10 weeks after a full camp and a 12 rounds grueling fight. Son, I'm telling you I'm not a newbie, be accurate for your own good. And yes, canelo was a 160, did he go back down to 160 after kovalev? Or did he stay at 168/175? Why is the reason that canelo don't say his weight the night of the fight?

      Still is more accomplished than Morrell at 23 than Morrell at his current age. Kovalev was still bette than Hot Wheels Morrell fought.

        We were not talking about accomplishment. The ginger was born in a free country while Morrell Jr had to get on a boat, and risk his life just to be free, be on the shelf for a couple of years. And then been avoided by those fighters that you hold in high regard. And no, kovalev was a shell of himself coming out of two ko losses, 36 yo alcoholic with a big domestic charge hanging over his head, a full camp and a 12th round fight against a young kid that he could have ko in the first two rounds if he was in his prime. If you're counting kovalev as a good win, you're blinded by idolatry. Keep hating, but the one hiding is canelo, learn now before you get marry so if she cheats on you, like canelo is doing, you just finish the relationship instead of finding an excuse to forgive her.

          I'd like to see it next, but considering neither looked great last time out, maybe an extra fight at the weight is a good thing. But some felt like Benavidez didn't want to risk his Canelo shot by facing Morrell at 168, and now it looks like he doesn't want to risk his undisputed shot by facing him at 175.

          Sampson needs better PR skills. Fans hear the word 'marinate', they think 'duck', it's been that way since Lopez-Gamboa didn't happen. Any promoter is surely aware of that.
          I remember those days. Even when Juanma was a hot commodity and me being excited about the possibility of them fighting in their prime, I never really gave Juanma more than a 25% chance against Gamboa in his prime.

          Juanma was somewhere between a brick layer and a one punch power fighter. Gamboa was suspect I le to getting dropped but I think Juanma was always too slow to beat Gamboa over the long haul. Gamboa in his prime looked like an honest to God featherweight version of Roy Jones, Jr.

            Never said it was good win IDIOT. I said he moved up 2 weight clases, since you complained about him bringing oppents from Lower weight classes. Nobody brings them, they accept and want it , like Crawford is begging at the moment. Charlo begged for years.

            Keep riding a Morrell's balls. Morrell hasnt done sh_t and wont do sh_t and it hurts your p_ssy.

              Sorry but that version of Kovi was good for the garbage
              I guess you didn’t know Kovi in his prime
              Hot Rod got robbed or deserved much better than he got

                Did that Hot Rod beat that Version of Kovalev who had just stopped Yarde 2 months prior?

                Never did I said that was a good version of Kovalev. I just said better than Hot Rod who I have never heard of.

                  Ok so you never heard of him so how can you say anything about him ???
                  I’ve seen him box multiple times and he’s a solid fighter who would give most guys at light heavyweight problems

                    By the way , Kovi got very oh so very lucky that Yarde has an idiotic fughin cornerman who drags him down and doesn’t train him like he’s supposed to
                    Imagine at Yarde’s age running out of steam ???
                    Against a drunken fighter who barely trained for him

                      I'm assuming if I never heard of him, he is not that great, otherwise I would have notice him.
