David Morrell tells the ‘Mexican Monster’ character that David Benavidez is just a fake identity and that he is actually “A fat chick.WBA ‘regular’ light heavyweight champion Morrell (11-0, 9 KOs) vows to “knock out” Benavidez (29-0, 24 KOs) to expose him as an imposter in the light of day.
Morrell vs. Benavidez will headline a 12-round fight in 15 days on February 1 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The event will air live on PBC on Prime Video PPV. Benavidez will have at stake his interim WBC 175-pound belt that he recently captured against Oleksandr Gvozdyk on June 15 of last year.
Counterfeit monster?
This fight will show if Benavidez is as good as he and his fans think he is or if he is fool’s gold, who has fooled naive fans all along. They want Benavidez to replace Canelo Alvarez so much that they don’t look at him with their eyes open to see that he has been fighting Ham & Eggers his entire career. Fans want Benavidez to be their new hero so much that they are unwilling to acknowledge the imperfections there and that he is not the genuine article.
“Are you the King? I’m coming for you. Get out of here,” David Morrell told PPV.comtalking about David Benavidez, who has put on airs about being the best in the 175-pound division but has no credible wins and looked atrocious in his light heavyweight debut.
“I have everything. Fast, power, defense, attack, legs that move. I have everything. I don’t know why people say he’s ‘The Monster’. Boom. It’s going down 100%. I promise you, I will knock him out,” Morrell said.
“The ‘Mexican monster’ everything is fake. It’s what in Cuba we call ‘A chick’. “Benavidez is not the same as me,” Morrell said. “In Cuba, we would accept lunch money. A fat kid like that. I don’t want to say I’m a poor kid, but I mean, man, it’s different. That hunger that we Cubans have. I dare say that few have it. I waited for this fight for a long time. “Right now it is more serious.”
Fans who were mentally awake saw by watching Benavidez’s last fight against 37-year-old Oleksandr Gvozdyk that he was not the fighter they thought he was. He worked in that fight and was defeated in the second half.
Benavidez got hurt in the 12th, and luckily it didn’t happen earlier in the round because Gvozdyk was lighting him up like a candle. That was hard to watch.
Benavidez’s excuses, since he blamed his terrible performance on hand injuries, don’t pass the laugh test. He wasn’t the same now that he was fighting where he should have been from the start of his career at 175, and he couldn’t stand facing someone his size.
I’m coming?
“I’m going in there and I’m fighting for my life, and he’s trying to take everything from me,” David Benavidez said of Morrell. “When I look at David Morrell, I think, ‘His team, his dog, his cat and everyone there.’ My main job is to beat him up and that’s exactly what I’m going to do.”
What is Benavídez talking about? Why does he mention Morrell’s dog and cat? It sounds like pure paranoia on your part to include his pets as part of your justification for hitting him. That is to say, ‘The Mexican Monster’ has the toughest opponent of his career, his first real test with his size, younger than him and with more power.
Benavidez has to prove that it is real and not just a fake who overcame all these years struggling to fight in a weight class smaller than his massive frame and picking mostly old guys. If he loses this fight against Morrell, it simply means that he was a fake and his entire career was a sham.
