As fans no doubt know, David Benavidez and David Morrell came together last night at a presser to officially announce and to also hype their upcoming February fight.
David Benavidez says he’s got a fight in the works against David Morrell next. He says he’s hoping Morrell will “accept” the offer for a fight.
David Morrell Jr. (9-0, 8 KOs), the WBA Super Middleweight Champion, knocked out Olympic Bronze Medalist Yamaguchi Falcao (24-2-1, 10 KOs) in the first round to keep his belt.
Boxing analyst Teddy Atlas predicts an early knockout win for Cuban talent David Morrell (10-0, 9 KOs) in his fight against Radivoje “Hot Rod” Kalajdzic (29-2, 21 KOs) for the vacant WBA World light heavyweight title this Saturday, August 3rd, at the BMO Stadium in Los Angeles.
The undercard for the Terence Crawford vs. Israil Madrimov event on August 3rd on ESPN+ PPV at the BMO Stadium in Las Vegas might be the best part of the event.
Cuban talent David Morrell (10-0, 9 KOs) will make a career change on August 3rd, moving up to 175 lbs to fight for the vacant WBA ‘regular’ light heavyweight title against Radivoje Kalajdzic (29-2, 21 KOs) at the BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, California.
In an unpopular move, the WBA made Edgar Berlanga mandatory for Canelo Alvarez’s belt at 168.
The World Boxing Association’s move is not popular because they don’t view Berlanga as deserving of a title shot and feel that he’s another weak opponent for Canelo, along the lines of Jaime Munguia, John Ryder, and Billy Joe Saunders.
WBA president Gilberto Mendoza has clarified that Edgar Berlanga is not the mandatory for Canelo Alvarez’s ‘Super champion’ belt with their organization, as he mistakenly told the media last weekend.
WBA ‘regular’ super middleweight champion David Morrell Jr. saw nothing in Edgar Berlanga’s performance last Saturday night that impressed him.
Morrell (10-0, 9 KOs), who has less than half of the fights as a pro than Berlanga (22-0, 17 KOs), views him as a poor fighter who wouldn’t last more than one round against him.
WBA ‘regular’ super middleweight champion David Morrell Jr. is ready to face Edgar Berlanga next, saying he’s “Easy money” for him after watching him perform from ringside in his sixth-round knockout victory over Padraig McCrory last Saturday night in Orlando, Florida.
