Comments Thread For: David Benavidez says David Morrell Jnr can help him separate himself from the rest of the pack

I'm betting on Morrell too but this is a toss up fight, Benavidez is no joke. He didn't lose the opportunity to fight Cane!o because of disrespect, Canelo knows he could get his ass whooped and want no part of it.

There’s a lot of unknowns with Morrell. I wasn’t impressed with his performance in his last fight. Benavidez has proven he a legit top tier boxer.

What makes you think this is a toss up fight?

The last match was a stark reminder that Benavidez is still a work in progress. Won't be surprised if Morrell makes Benavidez look like a basic fighter for 12 rounds

Morrell couldn't hurt Kalajdzic, Benavidez will show not concern or respect for Morrell's power or punch output. Morrell throws no combinations, David will easily out score and probably will get the TKO win. I usually don't bet but for this match up, I'm throwing big dollars on Benavidez for a majority decision and or a TKO.
Don't be surprised if we see Morrell's corner throw the towel in.

Based on instincts, and benavidez eating lots of shots in all of his fights. He lost the opportunity to fight canelo by disrespecting the face of boxing.

Why didn't Morrell get Canelo? he was the WBA mandatory. He was never disrespectful.

Let's hear the excuse.

Benavidez couldn't hurt an ancient Gvozdyk either.

I'm really looking forward to this one. Hopefully it lives up to expectations. These are two fantastic fighters , young and hungry. Kudos to them both for making this fight.

. You're seriously trying to compare fighter quality between a former Olympic medal winner and world Champion, 37 yr old Gvozdyk and Kalajdzic 33 yr old? Do you have any idea what Gvozdyk would do to Kalajdzic if they fought or, how a fight would end with Benavidez vs Kalajdzic?
Morrell needs more fights with Kalajdzic level opponents before even thinking of competing with the levels of ancient Gvozdyk or the Monster Benavidez. He'll soon find out.

In reality Benny dissed himself by losing them belts on 2 separate occasions ,fight would've been made already but he blew that opportunity away. But the fans dont like to remember that part.

This is a great matchup.

If you can’t get behind it then what are you even watching boxing for?
