David Morrell On A Possible Rematch With David Benavidez

David Morrell On A Possible Rematch With David Benavidez

What a fight tonight in boxing between David Benavidez and David Morrell, a legit instant classic.

Benavidez won a unanimous points decision but had to come through being decked in round 11 to get up and win.

Speaking after the fight Morrell spoke on a possible rematch:

“As far as the rematch question, I’m not going to wait like 3 years that would be a long time. As far as not looking for the body (punches against him) enough, maybe yes (I should have). He was heavier than normal. It wasn’t like I wasn’t feeling his punches a lot more than he was feeling mine (on going to the body of Benavidez).”

Ultimately it was a great fight.

Fans would watch a part two but Benavidez is going for the big fights now surely after going 30-0 tonight in such an amazing fight.

In what was a tremendous card for boxing tonight on Amazon Prime.

Amazon Prime are already doing great things in boxing and they will be pleased by the success of such a great card and event tonight, no question.
