Morrell: All I need now is Benavidez

David Morrell (9-0, 8 KOs) continues to easily defeat his opponents, despite the increase in the level of opposition, and challenges David Benavidez (27-0, 23 KOs). In the weight category up to 76.2 kg, all four championship belts belong to Saul Alvarez (58-2-2, 39 KOs). Morrell is his mandatory challenger for the WBA title, while Benavidez is his WBC title.

“I am 100 percent ready to fight Benavidez in September. I boxed for the first time in Las Vegas and knocked out Falcao in the first round. It was an opportunity to make a name for myself and show that I am ready for everything in this weight limit. The fight with Benavidez will be useful both for me and for him. I want only him and no one else, ”said the Cuban puncher.
