David Benavidez: David Morrell Is 100 Per Cent ******

David Benavidez David Morrell Is 100 Per Cent

David Benavidez really doesn’t like David Morrell ahead of their big fight this weekend, clearly.

The two have been wanting to fight for some time now.

The bad blood is genuine and things nearly got out of hand at one of their press conferences. Speaking ahead of the fight to PBC Benavidez said:

“David Morrell is 100 per cent ******.”

It doesn’t get more clear than that.

The clash this weekend is a hard one to call, though, Morrell the more boxer and technician — Benavidez the powerhouse brawler who wares people down with the pace he sets and the ferociousness he brings.

A tough fight to call but if any edge you’d have to give the slight one to Benavidez. Many rate him as a special fighter.

Morrell is 11-0-9 KO and Benavidez is 29-0-24 KO.

Neither has ever lost so this will be a relentless fight this weekend.

Morrell is a Cuban southpaw so will be tricky for anyone in the world at that weight or near it but Benavidez wants and deserves the big fights.

So he knows what he has to do this weekend if the Canelo fight or other big fights with Beterbiev or Bivol are to happen in the future.
