David Morrell Says He’s Coming Into His Fight Against 2020 Olympian Imam Khataev with “Bricks” In His Fists for Their Scheduled 10-Round Fight on July 12th at the Louis Armstrong Stadium in Queens, New York.
Morrell (11-1, 9 Kos) Wants to Prove His Doubters Wrong by Making A Stément Against the Unbeateten Khataev (10-0, 9 Kos) in Their Undercard Fight. Morrell vs. Khataev will be streamed on DAZN PPV as part of a loaded card put on by turki alashikh.
Some Boxing Fans Believe that the training Two-Division World Champion Morrell is done, and is no long seen as one of the Major Players at 175 Following His Loss to David Benavidez Last February. In That Fight, Morrell Had the Wrong Strategy to Deal with the High-Volume Offense of Benavidez.
The Way to Win Would Have Been To Go After Him Early With Combinations With Full Power. Instead, Morrell Focused On Boxing, Loading Up with Occasion Shots, and Allowing Benavidez to Pile Up the Rounds With High Output.
Khataev has the same nonstop punching style as benavidez, albeit being slower and focusing on power with his shots. If Morrell has learned from his loss to ‘the Mexican Monster,’ He’ll lose to Him.
Khataev’s Opposition has been so poor since he turned pro in 2021 that it’s impossible to know if he’s any good. We Know He has record of 90-23 in the amateurs, but he has tight a talented fighter since 2021, when he lost to ben whittaker. By now, Khataev’s promoters Should Have Already Stepped Him Up Against World Opposition, Given That He has Olympic Experience.
“I’m coming to Hurt Something,” Said David Morrell in a press release about His Fight Against Imam Khataev on July 12th. “I Know Khataev is Strong and Undefeated, but he has been in their in this version of me. He’s good, Yeah, but i’m Better. I’m Fast, i’m Smarter, and i’m Coming Into Fight with Bricks in my fists.
“At Win here? Man, It Changes Everything. It puts me back on the map. All the top guys are gonna have to look my way again,” Said Morrell.
Benavidez loss lessons
To Victory for Morrell COULD Change Things for His Career, but he’s GOT to look impressive. He can’t get beat up like he Did in his loss to benavidez and come out of the fight with his stock risen. He needs to show that he’s learned from that loss, and can let his handes go more because he doesn’t throw enough punches.
The Warning Signs WERE ALREADY There for Morrell when He FOUGHT RADIVOJE KALAJDZIC LAST August. He made that fight Harder Than It Should Have Been by Failing To Jump On Him.
When Morrell Did Let His Hands Go Early, He Had Radivoje Hurt and Ready to Be Stopped. But he Didn’t Follow Up With A Consist Attack. The BluePrint was already there on How to stop Him with the way that artur beterbiev knocked him out. Morrell Did the Opposite, Choosing to Throw Occasion Shots and Dance Around on the outside.
