      Still coulda fought. And the winner would definitely had put pressure on carnela. Way more from the fans. Maybe moreso bumavidez since people really wanted it.

        I agree. Both fights should be fireworks. Can't wait.

            This kind of fight should be expected; I am happy to see such a logical matchup come to fruition sooner than later.

            It feels like business is picking up for David Benavidez - people asked to him blaze his own trail and not be one of these guys basing his career off Canelo.

            Morell built up a nice little homebase at The Armory in MN, he is a mainstay -hope to see some of those fans fly out so we have a lit crowd.

            I am excited for both fighters to come out and do their best

              Nobody puts pressure on someone that doesn't want to take the risk. They have to move on and make their own path, canelo is irrelevant now, we all know he's chasing money not legacy. Morrell's people tried to make a fight against mbilli who was the Cuban mandatory, he declined the fight twice, as soon as DMJ started knocking out guys at 168, the opponents went to silence just like a few years back with Rigondeaux. I'm going to predict that Osley Iglesias will suffer from the same syndrome that his countryman, from now on is going to be harder for him to find an opponent with a name, forget about pacheco, munguia or berlanga, and canelo will be looking to recycle.

                They won without controversy in a new weight against good opposition, so what is your point?

                  Good fight.

                  In an ideal world, this would be the fight we'd get for the undisputed 168lb. belt, but somebody's holding the division hostage.

                    Blah blah blah. Morrells resume is trash and bumavidez got undersized Andrade and past prime lemiuex.
