Respect to David. Didn't think he had it in him
....but I guess he figured if he's really gonna fight the winner of bivol-beterbiev then he should prepare with the toughest opponent possible to see where he really stands. Cause If he struggles with morrel he stands zero chance with either of these guys. If David is who everybody says, he should win a pretty clear decision over a basic guy like morell. But his chin is gonna be tested.
Morrel has the opportunity to spoil everything and possibly steal David's dream fight. If benavidez loses this, that canelo fight is dead for good. Both guys have everything riding on this. The tension is gonna be crazy. Can't wait.
