      Unless Morrell can counter and make him think twice about shoe-shining.

        To me one big unknown is Benavidez stamina. At 168 he was an absolute dynamo, getting better as the fight would progress and steamrolling everyone in the second half of the fight. Against Gvozdyk at 175 he was out of gas after 6. Did he not train the same way because he does not need to lose as much weight? Does anyone know what happened? To me this will determine how the fight goes because Gvozdyk had no trouble landing on David in the second half but there was not much mustard on his punches. He would not want to give a free pass like that to a real puncher (Yes, I know that Gvozdyk used to be a good puncher before he retired).

            Oh chit
            Thé Benny fans are already summarizing your demise lol
            Even at 168 Benny seemed to slow down in the later rounds
            Is it conditioning or stamina ???

              Just to clarify, I am not a Benavidez fan (nor am I a Morrell fan). I am just an interested observer who cannot wait for the fight.

                  Crazy fight. Benavidez has a excellent straight right so Morrell will have to figure that out

                    Morrell and Ennis have similarities, though. Both are eye-test material and haven't been in real prime time event. Another difference is Morrelll is stepping it up too soon, while Ennis went turtle-paced and still want the same level of fights he's been fighting in. Like Lipinets level or Barrios, etc.
