David Morrell’s Post-Benavidez Revelation: The Cost of Care and a Blueprint for Dominance Against Imam Khataev

David Morrell says he should have used his ‘footwork’ and ‘head movement’ more effectively in his loss of David Banavidez in the T-Mobile Arena. Former two divisions world champion Morrell (11-1, 9 COs) made the mistake of waiting too long before eventually attacking Benavidez in their light heavyweight competition.

When Cuban threw it up, he dropped Benavidez in the 11th and lifted him in the 12th with big shots. When the fight ended, ‘the Mexican monster’ looks beaten Around the face and exhausted from the hard shots that Morrell hit him in the last two rounds. At the end of the fight, the facial functions of benavidez looked like a 100-year-old man.

Benavidez: an expensive lesson

If you look at what Morrell did to benavidez in just the two rounds to benavidez, and extrapolate it on what he could have done, the fight would have ended quickly if he fought more aggressively.

The fight was an example of Morrell who did not know his own power and did not use his natural power and youth benefit against Benavidez to try to take him out in the first half.

After hearing from the fight, Morrell, 27, will return to the ring in an undercard assignment and fight unbeaten a 175 -pound contender for 175 pounds Imam khatav (10-0 (9 costs) on July 12 at Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, New York. Morrell-Khataev will fight on the bottom map of the Edgar Berlanga against Hamzah Sheeraz event.

To prevent him from losing a battle again because he did not use his power play, Morrell should attack Khataev and not walk around and wait too long as against Benavidez. Morrell also made the same mistake by passively fighting in his collision against Radivoje Kalajdzic Last August at Turki Alalshikh’s map at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles.

When Morrell aggressively attacked with combinations early in Kalajdzic, he hurt and stopped close to. But then returned to throwing single shots, dancing unnecessarily, so Kalajdzic could have moments of success and go the 12-round distance.

Betterbiev -blouprint for Morrell

Afterwards seen, Morrell had to Artur Betterbiev Blueprint By attacking Kalajdzic in an overall style, throwing uninterrupted combinations, burying him with pressure and retaining a fast pace. The same approach would also have worked for Morrell against Benavidez. Morrell must use the betterbiev style for all its fights that move forward, because it is one that will work for him at 175 to defeat fighters such as Dmitri Bivolol, Benavidez and Artur. Morrell will never beat fighters like Biblical and Benavidez, and try to box as he did against ‘The Mexican Monster’ last February. It is a waste of time.

Unlike Morrell’s previous main performance against Banavidez, his battle with Khataev will be buried four deep on the bottom map the rocky bottom of the map. It must be a difficult pill for Morrell to swallow, because if he fought the right fight against Benavidez by attacking him with tooth and nail, Cuban style, he would probably have knocked out. He then put his card in a rematch with benavidez or against one of the top contenders on the head. Life would be different.

A tough pill to swallow

“Every time you suffer a defeat, there’s something you look back and think you could have changed,” David Morrell said Boxingscenethinking about his defeat against David Banavidez last February. “I feel like I could have used my footwork in a better way, and possibly more head movement.

“I know he brings strong punching force. I come to win and win with authority,” Morrell said of his fight against Imam khatav On July 12 in their under map fight in Queens, New York. “I hope to fight twice more before the end of the year.”
