Another thing I don't understand is why DMJ team choose this guy knowing he was on ped's

Because all top tier athlete's are on some kind of peds .They fall in two groups those that get caught and those that do not .

Calling this a world title fight seems a bit silly. Morrell should be rematching his last fight which he won by robbery.

Baloney. I watched that thing after all the hoopla. Morrell won. That’s the way I saw it, anyway. To call it a robbery is really overstating it.

Yes, I watched it too, and Morrell Jr. won the fight, and should have learned a lot about himself too. He is growing on the fast track, no gimmicks.

It was an exciting fight. Khataev was relentless. He pressed the action. But although practically every frame was competitive, I thought Morrell won more rounds. Even the KD wasn’t enough to swing the bout in Imam’s favor. The way some of the guys here were going on about the fight, I was expecting a robbery; yet I was in agreement with the one judge who had it 96-93 for David. I think they should run it back at some point, maybe after a couple of more fights. It was great work for Morrell, who had to get past a evry worthy opponent for ten hard rounds.

And that will help him get better.
