Cuban fighter David Morrell has a 10-0 professional record with nine knockout wins. As the holder of the WBA super middleweight world regular boxing title, he has been unable to get the attention of Saul Alvarez and is not eligible to compete for the super boxing title.
Recently, it was reported that David Morel is ready to move up to light heavyweight and plans to fight Radivoje Kalajdzic for the WBA light heavyweight regular title on June 22 this year.
In addition to David Morrell, another super middleweight super-middleweight contender, David Benavides, has also announced his promotion, and he will face former lightweight world champion Oleksandr Gvozdik in a battle for the WBC interim world title.
Both of these bouts will serve as cushion bouts ahead of Gerwenta Davis and Frank Martin's WBA Lightweight World Title defenses. Although the event's operator, Top Boxing Champion Promotions, has not yet been confirmed, it has been revealed that the event is scheduled to be held in Houston, Texas, and will be broadcast live via PPV via Amazon platform Prime.
The first to break the news of David Morel's upgrade was ESPN TV in the United States, whose reporter Fernando Sabatini reported that if David Morel defeated Radivoye Karajech to win the WBA Light Heavyweight World Regular Boxing Title, he would have to give up his WBA Super Middleweight World Regular Boxing Title.
What prompted David Morrell's decision was the same frustration that the division's other big name, David Benavides, had his upward path blocked, as current Sur Alvarez holds the World Champion title in the division's four major organizations. Saul Alvarez will defend his World Title against his Mexican junior fighter and former WBO welterweight world champion Jamie Monguia at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, USA, on May 4.
It is clear that Jamie Monguia is not qualified to challenge Sur Alvarez in principle. And David Benavides has been Sur Alvarez's forced challenger in the WBC, while David Morel is actually Sur Alvarez's forced challenger in the WBA. However, the delay in getting a chance to fight the division's world champion has left both fighters wanting to waste their youth again. So the two fighters decided to level up.
Moving into the light heavyweight division, David Morrell wants to quickly jump into the fight for the Light Heavyweight World Title. It has been reported that David Morel will watch the matchup between Artur Betbiev and Dmitry Bivol in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on June 1, and demand and the winner for a chance to fight the World Championship.
