David Benavidez says he’s motivated to secure knockout of David Morrell in upcoming showdown.
Following yesterday’s festivities, highlighted by a little physical altercation between David Benavidez and David Morrell, Benavidez talked to the media about tensions flaring up between him and his opponent and what it means for the fight.
“That’s exactly what I wanted and that’s exactly what I needed,” Benavidez said. “This fight, this is the type of energy that this fight is going to bring. So imagine we already want to get in there and throw punches without the gloves, so imagine when we get in there with gloves after three months of training. It’s going to be the best of all of next year. But I’m 100% ready.
“It’s funny that they say I’m RoboCop, that I don’t have any defense, I don’t have this and that — literally everybody I fought has said that but once they get in the ring with David Benavidez they know it’s a whole different story. So I’m very excited, this is the biggest fight of my life and I’m at the best moment of my life mentally, physically, emotionally. Everything is at 100% so I’m going to go in here and I’m going to get the knockout victory.”
