I'm a Minnesota native and learned about him a little over a year ago, when he outclasses Lennox Allen for 12 rounds for the WBA regular title (I know there are too many belts). I thought he was something special after that performance. Then after smashing Mike Gavronski in 3-4 rounds (can't remember exactly) I saw him use power which was the only piece missing from his performance against Allen. Rumor has it he is taking on John Ryder next. Anyone else as excited about Morrell's career as I am?
I am indeed, I took notice when he took on Quinton Rankin, a good journeyman, in only his second pro outing. He smashed him inside two and left an impression on me since then as a true blue chipper. He will be a world champ barring major mishaps, of that I'm certain.
