My man Morrell Jr!…Boxings best kept secret is slowly being unveiled! Don’t let the 5-0 record and the bullshit title fool you, this man can box! He’s pretty much untested, but his skill set is off the hook. Alantez Fox will prove to be his toughest opponent yet, but he will get severely outboxed Saturday night. By the end of the year, Morrell will be amongst the elite in the division, if not all of boxing.
*By the end of next year, I sould say. A division that includes Canelo. Plant, and Benavidez. The Berlanga hype show has died down a bit, but perhaps he’ll re-emerge as a force in the super middles as well.
