Keyshawn Davis was impressed with what he saw from David Morrela in his appearance against David Benavidez on February 1 at PBC on the Prime Video PPV earlier this month.
He felt a lightweight heavy Morrell (11-1, 9 who) be more interesting if he had more experience and made several strategic changes in his game. Keyshawn says Morrell was not supposed to be so often supported on ropes and would be better than a circle.
Experience the gap
He also felt he was supposed to take the attack against Benavidez (30-0, 24 ko) starting at the fifth or sixth instead of waiting until the last two rounds. Waiting for it for a long time, Morrel put in an impossible situation he needed a knockout, and he had the wrong opponent to do so.
Benavidez has a head like a water buffalo and can make a huge footage that would be a normal man. Obviously, if Benavidez continues to eat the type of shot he shot against Morrela, he will leave sports with only a few marbles that rolled in his head. There is no defense at all.
“It was a loss for Morrela on his record. It was really no loss. I watched him. I watch the next David Morrell fight, and that was the first fight I ever watched from David Morrela,” said Keyshawn Davis HUB TV fights About Morrell’s struggle against David Benavidez on February 1.
“He sold himself great. David Morrell looked great. I felt that if he had more experience, it would probably be a better fight. David Benavidez has all the experience in the world, and I am a fan of David. I just felt David Morrell too inexperienced , and a lot of it must have been shown.
“First of all, he started hitting this other equipment too late. At the end of the fight he began to stand there and fight against David Benavidez. He finally got confidence to fight him, which was a little too late. We all spoke in the sixth round , fifth round, “hit him. Fight this man. Stop moving so much. “
Late rush
Morrell was supposed to go to Benavides earlier in the fight, because when he stopped showing him respect, he hurt him with his bigger blows. In the end, he showed that he was better than Benavidez. It was like watching a lightweight volume that beats him a stronger guy.
Morrell’s power was on the second level, and he was in the end a better convinced fighter. Benavidez used all his gas in the top eight rounds and nothing left to reject Morrell. He looked like a tired cruiser. Benavidez revealed that he had rehydrated at 196, which is 22 Lipa profits of 22 pounds of 174 pounds in which he weighed.
“” Brother, use your stitch. Get in a circle. All you have to do is circulate it. Why do you constantly support straight into ropes? ‘Those things right there. It is inexperience. I feel like they may be the years down the line, maybe I can give it. I know David Morrell will be a fantastic fighter that people will continue to watch. It’s exciting. So maybe the year down the line, they can run it. “
It was a mistake on Morrell’s side to support the rope, shelling and allowing Benavides to be held on it. When he moved, he neutralized the insult well. In the later rounds, when Morrell finally went to Benavides, he surpassed him and made him look bad the same way as Oleksandr Gvozdyk did.
“I see why Canelo doesn’t want to fight him,” Keyshawn said of Benavidez.
It doesn’t look like Canelo Alvarez will ever fight Benavidez, unless the Turks al-Sheikh offers him a crazy money, but I don’t think it will happen. There are other struggles that Canelo can fight with and still make money. He doesn’t need a big dough that the Turks would offer him to fight Benavidez.
