“Liston -like power”

Decubas believes that Benavidez is not “difficult to hit”, and with the heavyweight power of Morrell as Morrell, he will damage him. He thinks that if Benavidez (29-0, 24 kos) can make the hard punch of Morrell for 12 rounds, this would say a lot about him and he would choose him to beat anyone in the lightweight heavy weight division.

Benavidez spoke of his plans to beat Morrell with a combined punch, which means he will be in his pocket waiting to be hit. It will be interesting to see which of the two fighters can mark a eliminated.

“I am very confident in this struggle. The boy (Benavidez) is made to ask Morrell. It is presented. It is not bad defense, but it is not difficult to hit, “said Manager Luis de Cubas Sr. Sean Zittel About David Benavidez is the ideal kind for his fighter David Morrell.

“You will find out when hit with a lightweight heavy (Morrell) full right (Morrell) as it is because Morrell beat (twice two occasions Julio Cesar) La Cruz in Cuba when he was 17 years old and he was 178 pounds.

“I am the one who reduced it to 168 because we had the opportunity for Lennox Allen (in 2020), and we took advantage of and won the title. We tried to get it (Benavidez) first to 168. We could not.

“Thanks to God, we moved to 175 and after the last performance (against Radivoje Kalajdzic) that people saw, maybe the reason why (Team Benavidez) fought, which is fantastic. I know That the guy we fought was not 28-2.

If it weren’t for Morrell’s last performance against Kalajdzic, he would probably not have achieved the fight against Benavidez. It seems that this performance has given confidence to the Benavidez team that they can win. Before that, they did not show interest, perhaps because Morrell destroyed everyone they faced.

Kalajdzic survived Morrell by movement and showing a strong chin. If he had been in front of him the whole struggle would probably have been exploited as the others.

“The guy who fought Benavidez (Oleksandr GVozdyk) in Light Heavyweight was 37 years old. He fought three times in seven years. The guy we fought was active. The boy was a good engine. He moved and we had to look for – Lo, “Decubas said about Kalajdzic using the movement in his fight against Morrell on August 3.

“Benavidez will not move. It will be right in front of us, and I am very confident. I will say one thing to fans. If Benavidez can take the blows of this child for 12 rounds, I will respect Benavidez a lot and I would favor any lightweight weight in the world. “

If Morrell eliminates Benavidez, he would commote many fans, who feel he is invincible right now. Many of them have not been able to look at the quality of the opposition that Benavidez has fought during his twelve years of career to say it, “A-ha, that’s why Benavidez has been so good. He has been fighting scrubs.

“Holes for walls”

“This type (Morrell) punctures holes through the walls. Has the hands of Sonny ListonAnd it’s a thumper. Anywhere with a punch, you can get you out. Therefore, I am very confident in the fight. It is a great opportunity for us, and the child is very exciting, “said Decubas Sr.

Morrell seems to be the largest punch in heavyweight light division. You can say from seeing Morrell’s punch in his victory over Kalajdzic that has more power than Artur Beeterbiev, which many fans consider as the biggest punch. Morrell hits stronger, but does not try to overflow his opponents as beterbiev does. It focuses more on eliminating them with individual traits.
