During the media training session, David Banavidez drained today, showing that he still has to lose a lot of weight for Friday’s weigh-in for his biggest collision against David Morrell in the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
That’s what I was afraid of. Banavidez’s weight shoe days finally catch up, and he’s on his way to the Step Guillotine Morrell.
It is not a good sign for benavidez to look skeleton before his fight against the talented Cuban Morrell (11-0, 9 COs) in their 12-round collision on PBC Prime video Ppv. Morrell looked wonderful todayWith no signs of drained and almost as if ready to walk into the ring for the fight.
Weight struggling
When Benavidez fought against old, smaller guys at Super Middle Weight, he was able to get away with weight drain because his opposition was a mixture of rinsed fighters and tomato can. He cannot get away with Morrell, who will utilize his weakness to strike the filling from him if he fights with 60% capacity.
In the Mexican monster’s debut at 175 against Oleksandr Ulsyk last year, he threw out after eight rounds, and one reason for this is probably the tension to gain weight and wear extra pounds.
Banavidez (29-0, 24 COs) moved up from 168 to 175 pounds in June last year, where he was considered a giant in the Super Middleweight Division. But even at 175, he is still drained, suggesting that he is a true cross weight and has to fight in that section rather than lightweight.
The extra seven pounds, from 168 to 175, are not enough to prevent benavidez from appearing exhausted and deadly.
“It just takes a little trash to ward me off, but he talked a lot. He has been calling me out for two years (correction: three years. Morrell has called Benavidez since 2022), ”David Banavidez said Fight Hub TV At today’s media workout, looking for an excuse to hype the fight.
“I’m going to stop this man. I have been a professional for 11 years (correction: 12 years. Banavidez became a pro in 2013). I have a lot more experience. (148 rounds versus 54 for Morrell. However, Morrell has much more amateur experience at better opposition than the older fighters who fought Banavidez).
“You learn from experience, and I intend to use my experience to the best of my advantage,” David said after naming his recent battle against Caleb plant, which is the best name on his resume.
“I don’t just have to look for one punch. In this battle we are going to do different things. We are going to throw combinations right off the bat, and as soon as I let my combinations go, you will see the best David benavidez seen.
“I’m not just looking for one shot. I’m going to punish this guy from every angle. Body shots, head shots and capital letters. Either way, I’m going to punish him, ”Bansavidez said.
