    If Benavidez can tak Morrell's Power for the 1st 6 rounds, it's a wrap for Morrell.

    Morrell looks Slow and very Basic. His only advantage at 168 was being a weight bully, having reach advantage, and good power. But those days are over.

      Funny bc the same thing can be said about Benavidez on those last three statistics. But I agree that if Morrell can't get Benavidez' respect early, it's not gonna be a good 2nd half of the fight him. If Benavidez worked out the kinks he had from his first fight at 175 and comes in better form, Morrell might be in for a very long night. Should be a great fight.

            Benny isn't the same fighter at this weight, he was also a weight bully at 168; morrell will definitely have to come of age in the fight, as benny is very experienced, i think this will be a good scrap, maybe they will have to rematch to settle it.

              No such thing as a weight bully if you can make the weight all is good.

              Morrell is getting spanked. After the first few rounds it will be a methodical beat down. I actually don’t think this will be particularly competitive.

              Benavidez wins by TKO

                Exactly. It's such a ridiculous and overused term.

                  Benavidez will be hard to beat. Big upset if Morrell wins.

                    Young fighters are able drop weight easier. Older boxer do not. So yes, at the some point being able to lose weight gives them an advantage. They can rehydrate to a heavier weight (Haney) come in bigger fight night, and the older fighters of course have the experience.
