David Benavidez spent some time talking to boxing reporters about his upcoming duel with David Morrell and why he expects to assure in the ring that he is at a different level than his opponent. Here are some of what Benavidez had to say.
“Each fight is different, every warrior has a different style, so it is from me and my team to enter and stand out to see what I have to do,” said Benavidez about facing Morrell. “But as I said, we worked on the necessary things that we have to work on to make sure that we neutralize Morrella’s power, HOS movement and all his things.
“I utilize experience in my favor. My last fight, when I fought with two wounded hands, I fought with a great warrior, so I had to utilize more touches, higher speed, I had to do things that I did. Against the guy of this caliber with two hands mixed, and now, when I am free from injury, I feel amazing and nothing will be able to get in my way.
“I don’t really care about him (before the fight) or anything. For me, all these things from him are nervous energy. He knew that he bit a enormous portion, that he couldn’t chew and you can say anything … that I fought, every warrior with a high caliber said the same, but after they got into the ring with me, everyone says the same, say that David Beneds is at a different level.”
Benavidez would cause his soft frustration of how drug tests were carried out for this fight.
“When you go through other fighters who say” hey, I was tested by Vad “, but then David Morrell was not tested, raises many questions,” said Benavidez. “I’m not the only warrior who says it, there were two other fighters who say that. Morrell was not tested, and then after the fight they did not conduct a drug test, which is a child of ODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD GO NO TEST.
“But I don’t really care. Even if he was on steroids, I would beat him Sh-T, but if you are a muddy warrior, you will be unveiled. That’s why they concluded such a enormous jumping agreement and did not tested.
“We are tested because I constantly put pressure on Vada … At the end of the day these are fights for high caliber, which require testing. When I fought with Caleb the plant and when I fought with Demetrius Andrade, we tested 14 weeks. I am assisting things that I did not do myself, I tested more than anyone, through Vada.
