Turki Alralikh Directive: As the 18-meter ring for Khataev-Morrell affects the PPV Dazn PPV card on July 12

Imam Khataev’s manager Jim Kamboses revealed that the size of the ring will be 18 feet for his fight against David Morrell next month in his heavy heavy weight of ten rounds on July 12 at Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, New York.

Khataev-Morrell: 18-foot ring confirmed

Jim is happy that the ring will be 18 feet more than those of standard 20 feet, because he will not allow the card fighters to “work”. It is not clear how this will help the 2020 Khataev Olympic bronze medal (10-0, 9 ko) for this struggle. The contestant of 175 LB very well classified Morrell (11-1, 9 kos) is not a runner and it will not be difficult to find it. He will set him ready and fight against Khataev.

Morrell vs. Khataev is part of the Turki Alralikh July 12 event Dazn PPV. The card is run by Edgar Berlanga vs. Hamzah Sheeraz.

18 -foot rings impacts Stevenson, Zepeda

The 18-foot reduction for this card will mainly affect Shakur Stevenson, who defends its light WBC title against volume punching William Zepeda in co-fund.

Stevenson is expected to move very much in this fight. But with the smallest ring, it will not have so many real estate to evade Zepeda. Turki said this week that it would not support runners in their Riyadh season letters. It wants fighters to take actions. Again, this directive affects Shakur, and not Morrell, who is a great punch and known for the fight.

“Now I will tell you one thing. I take care of the Imam Khataev. And I just signed the promotional agreement of the imam Khataev,” said manager Jim Kambosa a FighthypeSpeaking of his fighter, Imam Khataev, who assumes David Morrell on July 12.

Russian Khataev has a lot of power and is a classic pressure fighter. Their amateur credentials speak for themselves. Fought at the highest levels. As a professional, his style is more suitable for these types of struggles because he is able to carry his opposition with his pressure. Morrell will have to fight much better against him than in his loss against David Benavidez last February to win.

“I will tell you something that has changed and I am not breaching any agreement of confidentiality or privacy in the contract,” said Kamboses. “But I agree with his excellence (Turki Alralikh) because this ring has been reduced to 18 feet. It’s not a 20 -foot ring.”

Morrell’s style in a smaller ring

Jim should not assume that the ring is smaller will help Khataev in this fight, because he does not fight a novice. Cuban Morrell can do everything that was done by Ben Whitataker when he beat Khataev at the Olympic Games, but he is also a great punch. If Morrell struggles aggressively as he did in the past, in Khataev it will be difficult to keep -without the struggle stopping in the cuts or the swelling of the eyes.

“ Because we guess what? We want to see the fighters fight. And I am very happy that the ring of July 12 is an 18 x 18 ring, inside the ropes.This now will make the boys fight, do not want to run, and use basically each inch of the ring.We are now in an 18 -foot ring.I’m very happy because my boy (Imam Khataev) is a type of pressure. ”
