  1. No matter who calls out who, PBC won't let this fight happen until it matures. That would involve PBC featuring Morrell more and featuring Benavidez and Morrell side by side. That's a minimum of 2 years. With that said, I do like this fight and want to see it, but I don't see Benavidez winning that fight. His defense is average at best and with a sharp shooter like Morrell that spells doom. I think people are looking at how Benavidez overwhelm much smaller and lesser opponents. He won't have a major size advantage with Morrell and for the first time he'll be in there with a fighter more talented. I do hope I'm wrong because at the end of the day I'm a Benavidez fan and I've been riding with him from day one. But Morrell has exceptional abilities. Fighters with his instincts and athleticism come around every blue moon. I'll name a few…. Robinson, Ali, Leonard, Jones, Mayweather, Crawford, Stevenson, Ennis and Morrell. There are a few more, but this is out of the last 70 years if you know what I mean. Benavidez does have heart and that could propel him, but if they fought 10 times Morrell is going to get the better of him. The fight will happen and I see it happening at 175 and 2024 at the earliest.

  2. Dudes going to clean out everyone at 168 and then 175 is next. The Monster’s coming for all y’all. This man is worth the price of admission. Never a dull fight.

  3. How people can dislike this guy is loco. David is very humble and speaks like a true General. He is like the 168 Shawn Porter in terms of sportsmanship and giving anyone a tough fight.

  4. Will be 1st time Benavides fights someone his own size n reach ..don't underestimate that .. Morrell is a better boxer n defensively responsible than Benavides..will be interesting !

  5. Edgar Bumblanger?? That's a massacre you can get locked up for fighting him!! He is lost in the clout!! And suspect, fat Joe can't help him 🤣😂🤣

  6. Hoping Plant gives him a real good fight I wouldn’t mind one bit if Plant beat David, David likes to talk a lot, but I give Benavidez the edge with power and speed

  7. Ppl get scared when they see somebody ko somebody else! David is the opposite❗️🥊 he gets excited when he sees a fighter ko somebody! 😂 this nigga is different! Can’t wait for him to wash plant up❗️💯🥊🔥

  8. Damnnnn my boy is a problem fr fr❗️ He doesn’t even let himself get sidetracked with social media or anything else that’s outside of BOXING❗️ That’s how you know he’s gonna be remembered in this sport FOREVER❗️🔥💎
