Comments Thread For: Super Middleweight Youngster David Morrell Insists "This Division is Mine"

[KTFOKING]

Um, he still has a long way to go before talking about running the division. LIS in the other thread about a week or two ago, he still has amateur tendencies he needs to get rid of. The Ryder fight would be perfect to see where exactly he is at. Ryder could expose Morrell's flaws and take him to deep waters. If Morrell deals with him with ease? Then it's time to take him serious.

They should just end the sport. I mean, ya know, Canelo is here, so what is the point?

For real. I like Canelo a lot. he is my favorite, I will admit it. But man! There are other fighters out there, least from what I hear and read.

You're delusional, you're not even a Boxing Fan you're just here to Deep Throat Canelo

I'm just as high on Berlanga, is he with PBC? NO! Grow The F^ck Up! You have to do more with your life than spend most of your day making the worst threads and post possible all just to Stroke Canelo. I like Canelo as well but you're next level and you have the BALLS to accuse others of being a Cheerleader of a fighter of a F^cking Promotion? I actually watch Amateurs, AIBA Tournaments because I'm a BOXING FANS! So I've knows about Morrell before he even defected. Of course I wouldn't expect you to know what AIBA is because of course it is no Canelo in those Tournaments for you to get a hard on over

Stop being a little Attention Whore and grow up and act like a MAN for once in your life. Then again I don't know based on the stuff you post clearly it might be some other things going on that you have no control over and you just cannot help yourself

What an amazing post! Green K sent!

This division is rapidly getting very thick in competition. There is a great balance of undefeated in their prime fighters, young fighters with potential, and one superstar.

This is where the drama could unfold over the next 2 years.

[VashDBasher]

He has a lot of potential. If he develops properly and stays focused, he’ll become a big threat in the division.

[wildman]

Only time will tell. He has abilities, but thus far has beaten nobody and really done nothing.

only 4 fights and already fought a 20-0 ten years vet. Unlike other young fighters, he is looking for stiffer competition.

I don't know what you saw. But it was very different of whst what I saw. The kid went in there, felt no threat coming his way and put a beating.

Yes...but you have to look at his methods in the ring an imagine if he could do the same things to a better fighter....that's where I'm at with it....and I saw some deficiencies....he's not particularly fast handed...nor does he have great feet....and there's also some defensive defects he's gonna have to clean up. I knew a fighter several years ago in the amateurs that fought exactly how david fights today....same build...same body type...even throws punches the same as Morrell. He was a great amateur but he'd lose every single time he fought the nations best fighters....even had several losses to Danny Jacobs and Shawn porter....I've just seen david Morrell type of fighters before....needless to say it didn't work out for my friend in the pros. Like a deer in headlights and that's how I believe its gonna be for David when he faces top talent....I could be wrong but I usually have a good eye for this.

Lets revisited this post after his next fight. He was confident and didn't fear anything coming back his way. 22-23 years old with only 4 fights and already beat a 22-0 fighter and a 26-3, and his second fight was against a 15-6 fighter. I saw a very fast fighter where you saw a slow one. Like a said, we didn't see the same thing and that's okay. We perceive things different. where you see defects I see potential. I think we agreed that Ryder is not a pushover. So lets wait for that fight. One thing for sure, he is not being protected. Stay safe.

Bek the Bully is the cream of the crop when it comes to the youngsters @ 168 lbs. Neither Berlanga or Morrell have the resume or pedigree of Bek the Bully. If all three where stocks, I bet on the Uzbek before the Cuban or Puerto Rican.

Well I beg to differ. Morell Jr. has some good pedigree and in only 4 fights he already fought an undefeated fighter, 22-0, and a 26-3 and 15-6 fighter. For a 22 years old and only four fights, that's impressive, a least for me. Who would win in a round robin between those three, I don't know. But I'd put my money on my countrymen.
