Morrell unquestionably, but Benavidez got great short punch power that he can apply all night.

Cool fight, I can't remember ever seeing either of these boxers look like they're close to being knocked down? Can anyone refresh my memory?

I got a stoppage from either side, whoever makes the biggest mistake gonna get it the worst imv.

What was Morrell doing throwing the belt?

straight outta the ufc/wrestling promo handbook.

Morrell's impression of Benavidez @6:45

Interesting seeing Benavidez trying to intimate the "boogeyman" of the match.
Been proven several times that body language or whatever in these promo events mean nothing in regards to the fight but I did think Morrell looked a big shook in the shove moment. Looked fine in the interview above tho

I don't believe these two dislike each other at all but I understand having to sell it lol

the PBC deals lean on back end so they need folks to buy this shyt lol. I think they are legit rivals though

I'd have to disagree a bit, as Morrell has been talking crazy about Benavidez for years. I don't think there is any love lost.

Oh he has??? I never noticed any of it my fault then

I thought their common knack for being ducked kinda forced them to each other

Nah, nothing in that, they told them to do that, all for the promo, disappointing they have to do that tbh.

 

[chunky_mcdaniels]

Cool fukking fight.

One got hips that move like they're double jointed, the other one got the robo-cop rock-em-sock em style, hunt you down and drown you style.

I can't remember either of them fighting a similar opponent in each other, and both got the chance to blast the other one out.

I wanna say Morrell got it because he has the power, stamina and slip from the hips to get it done, but then Benavidez got one of the best tight guards in all of boxing. It's like he presses R2 on the controller and locks it in completely, nothing gets him usually.

I'mma go with draw. My record been weak lately.
