    At first glance, this fight seems good, but I think this will be a one-way fight in favor of Benavidez, but we will see.

    Really looking forward to this fight...lil early for Morell but much better than boxers avoiding each other shakur, Tank, Hayney, Teo etc etc

    Sick of fights getting pushed back. Now Feb 1st. Better not be pushed back again. Benavidez only fought once this year which is pathetic.

    I think folks are sleeping on Morell a bit. He is a really good fighter that has the amateur pedigree to cause Benavidez problems. If someone beats Benavidez, it won't be a banger, it will be someone that can move and counter punch. I'm not saying Morrell will win, I'm saying he has the right skillset to take advantage of Benavidez when he gets over aggressive.

    Benavidez decision. Benavidez doesnt have the power he thinks he has...or at least that his fans think he has, but his workrate and pressure will cause problems.

    This fight won't happen. Just like Kabayel vs Bakole didn't.

    That's my feeling as well. Morrel my be slick enough and hits hard enough to keep DB honest. If he makes DB think before he punches, he may be in some trouble. Good fight.
