Gabriel Rosado says David Morrell has awakened the “beast” at WBC’s temporary champion in the semi-class category David Benavidez with his constant insult on his account in preparation for their fight this Saturday, February 1st, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Rosado considers Benavidez (29-0, 24 ko) to attack Morrella (11-0, 9 ko), wanting to overwhelm him to hit the knockout at their 12 rounds of 12 rounds at PBC on Prime Video PPV.
Benavidez not used to being old and limited “Robokop” The fighter by his opponents, but more technically more talented Cuban Morrell is surprised how much he is a fighter. He has gone through with his size and volume all these years, fighting with 168, and now finally fights a true credible threat for the first time in David Morrell.
It’s late for a 12-year-old professional Benavidez, who takes his first test, and could fall apart on Saturday night.
“Different kind of beast”
“I give the advantage of Benavidez. I have known him for years. I prefer Benavides, but you can’t sleep on Morrell. This is the fight that Benavidez didn’t even have to take this fight. Morrell was the one who needs this fight, ”said Gabe Rosado Fight Hub TVclaiming that the WBA ‘ordinary’ semi -fee champion David Morrell needs this fight against a temporary WBC champion in the 175 LB category of David Benavidez.
“Morrell is in a situation where he won Jackpot. So, if he can in this fight, he is there because no one really called Morrell. So, it shows what Benavidez dog is. He said, ‘Come on, let’s go. Let’s move on, “Rosado said, missing out that Benavidez did not show interest in fighting Morrell two years after he first called him in 2022.
“I think it is wake up the second type of beast in Benavidez Because no one actually acts like that with Benavides, ”Gabe said of Morrell, who gossiped him, constantly questioning his courage and saying that he did not know how to hit.
The 175 LB Morrell champion WBA did not win Jackpot by getting this fight, since he is the bearer of the belt in this fight, not Benavidez. If Morrell was a belt without a belt, then you could claim that he “hit Jackpot”, but that’s not the case. Benavidez is needed here.
“It will be a fiery fight. Both will clash, and it will be a question of who will endure it as they will both shoot. I think Morrell is better than the two of them, but Benavidez draws you with volume. So what will win? “Rosado said.
This may not be pure firing like the one that Rosado imagines because Morrell, who is from the Cuban school of fighting, will move something. They stand like the fighters with whom Benavidez fought in the first 11 years of his career. Cubans have a real quotient of intelligence in the ring and will not stand in front of fighters known for their voice, such as Benavidez.
Power against volume
“Will it be strength or will it be a volume? This is what will be reduced to, because I don’t think Morrell will be able to measure Benavides’s volume. He constantly hits you and doesn’t get tired, ”Rosado said.
In the fight ‘The Mexican Monster’, Benavidez against Oleksandar Gvozdyk last June was quite tired, and from the eighth round he looked exhausted. The extra weight Benavidez carries now that he is fighting at the age of 175.
Moreover, the blows that set him in the semi -heavyweight are much harder than they were while he was in the 168 campaign against David Lemieux, Anthony Dirrell, Demetrius Andrade and the Caleb Plant. He didn’t like the power he had tasted in his debut at 175 against Gvozdyk.
Benavides’s volume attacks only against motionless fighters. Fighters like William Zepeda and Benavides, who depend on the volume to win, are neutralized by fighters moving and shooting.
That is why Zepeda had so many problems against the Farmer Tev’s and that is why Benavidez would be struggling to throw out his shots against Morrell. It will be forced to play, throwing individual shots, which is not Benavides’s stronger side.
“So Morrell will definitely have to set up traps and get some great chance in that fight,” Rosado said.
Robocop style risky
Morrell will probably box all night, move and score Benavidez with huge blows. Benavidez will give their own many blows Robocop style The attacks, which will make Morrell’s great power more devastating.
If you are Benavidez, it would be wiser to leave that style on the shelf forever because it will knock it out Morrell, Arthur Beterbiev, Joshua Buatsi and Dmitry Bivol.
Benavidez got away with this primitive approach because of many years in which he fought at 168 against a limited opposition he fought with. Cannot do this at the age of 175 without ending up in Palokville For a year or two, if it endures so much. Benavidez cannot continue to get strokes as he did in his debut in the semi -heavyweight category against Gvozdyk without being a fighter over the hill soon.
The ‘Mexican monster’ already has a long twelve -year professional career, and the injuries that start the crowds indicate that it is physically starting to be stored like most fighters who have been in the game for so long.
Chronologically, Benavidez is young at 28 years old, but the punishment he received in his head is the same as any other fighter who has been in sports for more than a decade. With Benavides it is worse because it fights aggressively, arguing.
