    Morrell has never faced anyone nearly as good as Benavidez. Now that he has, the Cuban David has a lot of information to work with. Morrell obviously has some improvements to make. I believe — or at least I certainly hope — that he has it in him to evolve. The tools are clearly there. I’m glad these two warriors ended the fight and promotion on good terms. I wasn’t crazy about the way my guy was handling himself in the lead up to the fight, but I definitely approve of the way he’s behaved in defeat. He’ll be back.
    I agree that Morrell will be back, as long as he keeps his mind together and doesn't let this loss get to him. He will have to learn to counter, though, instead of just covering up and letting his opponent tee off repeatedly.

      Beterbievs been down before a couple times. Benevidez been down too but less significant KDs. I agree plenty of skill and power coming back from artur it would be an incredible fight. Artur is an absolute machine but Father Time is undefeated and benevidez is really coming into his own. 175 and 154 are the most exciting competitive division at the moment imo
      Being down is not being out, brother. If Artur doesn't get too old before he faces Benavidez, David wil have a hard time with him. For that matter, Bivol will give him a tough time too. But definitely, a fight vs either Artur or Dmitri would be incredible!

        Glad to see Morrell finally realize where his place in the sport is.

        How about making Morrell vs Andrade next? Although their styles are not exactly similar they both fight in spurts.

          Andrade said he was moving back down to mw but hadn't been heard from since.

              Yeah, I think Bivol tasted some of Beterbiev's power and wants none of it.

                  Selfishly I hope you're wrong. Selfishly, I hope I'm wrong.
