    Smith v Morrell - who you got?

    I find this a very interesting fight. I think Morrell will win.

    David Morrell has yet to actually beat anybody good in his pro career and Khataev got robbed.

    If the same version of Smith that beat Buatsi shows up he's going to destroy Morrell.

      this should be Morell’s opportunity to shine and look good

        Given what I've seen from both guys lately, I'd say it's 50/50.

        Curious to see what Morrell's new trainer does with him, if anything.

          make David jab

          he rushes and fights as if he doesn’t have the great wingspan in his two weight classes

            Khataev was that opportunity and he got his ass whooped and handed a gift on the cards.

              Cuban David supposed to immediately rematch Imam

              hate that ish when they allow a-side to jeet on an insta-Rematch after getting a suspect decision

              Artur’s Cousin Imam is fresh strong buff

              Callum is war worn

                Still find mad it how everyone loves to make a big deal over positive tests and diss fighters about it when news comes out yet this Khataev case came and went without much big deal, 1 day we are finding out he failed a test and got banned by an organisation the next everyone is going on as normal as if nothing happened with his fight 2 days later. Yet this weird case, mostly everyone has been quiet, twitter, forums on here, journalists etc

                If it was Beterbiev or Bivol the news was about and they had a fight on the weekend would the reaction be the same, no.

                  Favor Morrell over Smith, think David will be surprised how Smith uses his reach well, but eventually Smith will be overwhelmed by his opponent's handspeed and angles. Along with power like Beterbiev had done.

                    If Benavidez or PED taking Khataev couldn't KO Morrell there's no way in hell Smith can. Morrell by decision.
