Coach Ronnie Shields says that David Benavidez’s fight against David Morrell Last February will help prepare him to defeat the undisputed champion of Semi -Sedmed Weight Dmitry Bivol if he still has the four titles after his probable setback against Artur Beterbiev.
Shields sees a fight between Dmitry Bivol and Benavidez as a “50-50”, but many fans are giving David the advantage in that fight due to his combination of blows. Benavidez also has the youth and hardness on his side. Bivol is 34 years old, and it seemed that he was going to scratch recently in his rematch with Becterbiev when he was pressed from the rounds two to seven.
Benavész’s ability to ‘the Mexican monster’ to resist the shots of the talented Cuban Morrelll (11-1, 9 kos), which hits much harder than Bivol, will help him prepare for that clash. Benavidez will be transmitted by Bivol for a trilogy match against the former unquestionable champion of Semi -Sedmed Betebiev.
“I think soon. He is young, so he needs to return there. I would love to see him fight in the coming months, ”said coach Ronnie Shields for CightHipo About David Morrell. “Once I talk to the powers that are, make them know that this child is a fighter and that he has to re -enter.
“Many people saw a great fighter against David Benavidez. It was a great fight, and with a little more experience, I think I could have won the fight, ”Ronnie said about Morrell. “We feel very good about what he did and where he is now. I think we need to recover it as soon as possible. “
Morrell’s power
It is important that Morrell does not stay out of the ring for a long time after that loss, since he will lose a lot of impulse in his career. Many combatants tend to stay out of the ring after they get a great payment day like the one Morrell obtained, and their careers are downhill. If Morrell can fight a couple more times in 2025, he will be able to challenge for a world title in one of the letters in Riyadh.
“Absolutely,” Shields said when asked if Morrell is among the three most hard blows in the 175 pound division. “He can hit. All luminous weights will see, and they will feel it. Without a doubt, “Shields said about whether Morrell helped Benavész prepare for Dmitry Bivol.
Morrell could be the biggest beating in the semi -stated weight division for individual shots. Artur Beterbiev is seen as the hardest beating, but when you look at the shots that landed against Dmitry Bivol, they were not at the level since Morrell was hitting Benavész. Morrell and Beterbiev share a common opponent in Radivoje Kalajdzic. Morrell’s blows looked harder. The difference was that Artur attacked Kalajdzic more implacably, so he knocked him out in the fifth round in 2019.
“50-50 fight”
“I think David Morrell showed that he is a true fighter. David Benavidez is one of the best fighters in the world. I knew that entering there, and I think we show enough where people will say: “Hey, they will have to deal with this child.”
“Then, everyone knows about David Morrell, and everyone knows about David Benavidez. These guys will see each other again. Definitely. That is a fight that I want to see, ”Shields said about a fight between Benavidez and Bivol. “I think it’s a 50-50 fight.
“Benavidez is a really intelligent guy, and can be handled inside that ring, but Bivol too. I can’t wait for the fight. If David Morrell can fight or two, he can fight the winner. That is the plan, “Shields said about Morrell obtaining a mandatory place to force an opportunity for the world title against who holds the belts in 175.
