Cuban Davis Morrell has had to make a name for himself through good boxing and impressive fights. Since he became professional boxer, he has dazzled boxing but he has had to earn respect and he has done it thanks to his performances in the ring.

One of the dreams that the Cuban has always expressed is to fight in Las Vegas and this Saturday he will have the opportunity to do it for the first time when he faces Yamaguchi Falcao in defense of his World Boxing Association (WBA) super middleweight crown. 

The event is ideal as it brings together Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia in the main event, so Morrell will have a great showcase as a co-main event in an event that will have a worldwide scope. 

He is a boxer who has great height and reach, in addition to being a southpaw and having the technique of the Cuban school. The icing on the cake is that he combines all that with an impressive power of pulse and that makes him one of the best in the whole division. 

He will face an experienced opponent like the Brazilian Falcao. An Olympic medalist and a warrior in the ring, he comes to this fight motivated and the challenge will be interesting for the fans. 

Morrell will show himself to the world once again and hopes to remain as WBA champion. He intends to challenge the big names in the division and remain among the elite of the sport.


Davis and Garcia promise crushing victory
