David Benavidez is drained in front of David Morrell’s struggle

During the media training, David Benavidez seemed drained today, showing the tensions of the need to lose a lot of weight for Friday’s heavy for his main confrontation against David Morrell at the T-Mobile Arena de Las Vegas.

This is what I was afraid of. Benavidez’s bullying days have finally caught him and heads to the Guillotine walking Morrell.

It is not a good sign for Benavidez to look like skeletal before his fight against talented Cuban Morrell (11-0, 9 kos) in his 12-round clash in PBC Main video PPV. Morrell had a great look todaywithout showing signs of drainage and almost as if ready to enter the Ring for the fight.

Weight struggles

When Benavidez fought against the oldest and youngest boys of Super Middleweight, he could escape to be drained in weight because his opposition was a mixture of washed fighters and tomato cans. It cannot come out against Morrell, which will take advantage of its weakness to combat the filling if struggling with 60% capacity.

In the Mexican monster debut at 175 against Oleksandr Usyk last year, he spent after eight rounds, and one of the reasons is probably the tension of weight and carrying extra pounds.

Benavidez (29-0, 24 kos) moved to 175 pounds last June from 168, where he was considered a giant in the Super Medium Division. But even in 175, it is still drained, which indicates that it is a real cruise weight and should fight in this division instead of heavy weight.

The additional seven kilos, from 168 to 175, are not enough to prevent Benavidez from appearing emaciat and mortal.

“You only need a little rubbish conversation to leave -but it has been talking a lot. Two years ago I have called me (Correction: three years. Morrell has been calling Benavidez since 2022),” said David Benavidez to Fight Hub TV In today’s media training, look for an excuse to increase the fight.

“I’m going to close this guy. I have been a professional for 11 years (Correction: 12 years. Benavidez became a professional in 2013). I have much more experience. (148 rounds vs 54 for Morrell. However, Morrell has a more amateur experience against better opposition than the biggest fighters than Benavidez has fought).

“You learn about experience and I plan to use my experience to my advantage,” David said after mentioning his recent fight against the Caleb plant, which is the best name of his resume.

“I do not have to look just a punch. In this struggle, we will do different things. We will throw combinations to the right and, once I let my combinations go, you will see the best David Benavidez that has been seen.

“I’m not just looking for a shot. I will punish this kind from all angles. Body shots, head and uppercase. Whatever it is, I will punish it, “said Benavidez.
