Turks al-Sheikh wants tonight’s winner of David Benavidez against David Morrell to challenge the winner of the remains of February 22 between the undisputed champion in the heavyweight category Arthur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol Next.
Turki’s plan
According to RingTurks want the winner of Benavidez-Morrell to be a hoop for Beterbiev Vs. Buffalo II Competition at the Royal Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This would help create more interest in fighting.
It has already been announced that Benavidez-Morrell Victor will challenge the winner of the winner of Beterbiev-Bivol 2, but now the Turks have confirmed that this will happen.
Can the buffalo spoil things?
No words of whether Al-sheikh’s plans will change If the buffalo beat Beterbiev because it would be a trilogy that struggled, obvious to make. He would be interested in their rivalry if the buffalo was headed for the winner of Benavidez-Morrell.
Given how the last fight took place, the buffalo has a very good chance to win a removal with 40-year-old Beterbiev. The immediate trilogy between them makes more sense than to defend the buffalo from Benavidez Vs. Morrell The winner and beat them up.
If that happens, the Beterbiev-bivol trilogy would not be buttoned up for many fans. This would be viewed as two former champions. The buffalo is 34 and looks like its age.
For business purposes, David Benavidez must win tonight’s fight against the WBA of the regular lightweight champion in the Morrell (11-0, 9 KOS) at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Benavidez has many Mexican fans in the US -II Mexico. It struggles professionally longer than Cuban Morrela, and the occasional boxers of boxing in the United States are better known.
Benavidez’s largest test
Benavidez is a basic fighter who overcome the fights outside his weight class in 168, and has just used his size and volume of kicks to win. Benavidez did what Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. done earlier in his career. It is a strategy for the abolition of the weight that younger fighters can get away with, and there are no protective measures with rehydration clauses around the world to protect the fighters from the victims of it.
When Chavez Jr. He was at best from 2009 to 2014, melted with weight to compete against many smaller fighters in the middle category. He would rehydrate, look like a lightweight heavy in the ring and crush them in size.
Chavez Jr. has won the world’s middleweight title in this way and earned a lot of money. However, when he could no longer make a weight for a 160 -pound division, his career went downhill because he couldn’t beat fighters of the same size as he did.
Benavidez is the same kind of fighter, which would explain why he looked poor in his debut in 175 against Oleksandar Gvozdyk on June 15 last year. Even against 37-year-old Gvozdyk, Benavidez looked average in an easy-to-heavy category. That’s why tonight’s fight is 50-50 because Morrell is the same size as Benavidez, but with more power and talent.
