Being a fighter, you need to train your mindset and just be ready for whatever [comes your way].<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo I stayed calm and just kept training.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While believing the Smith fight will \u201c100%\u201d be rescheduled, Morrell remains acutely aware of the danger that comes with taking his eye off the ball.<\/p>\n<p>He learnt this particular lesson in his last outing, when a lack of focus, by his own admission, caused the talented Cuban to suffer a fifth-round knockdown against Imam Khataev.<\/p>\n<p>Still, <a href=\"https:\/\/boxingnewsonline.net\/news\/david-morrell-edges-out-imam-khataev-over-10-rounds\/#:~:text=The%20result%20was%20a%20hugely,95%2D94%20the%20other%20way.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Morrell managed to edge a split decision last July<\/a>, but it was far from the type of performance we are accustomed to seeing from the skilled technician.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThat fight wasn\u2019t good; I wasn\u2019t 100% focused. Several things had happened within my personal circle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith a guy like Khataev you should box, move around, and use those abilities to control the fight. But because I wasn\u2019t 100% focused, I just used my fighting instincts and came away with the victory.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Following the Khataev fight, Morrell parted ways with Ronnie Shields and joined forces with head coach Ismael Salas, training alongside the likes of Rolando Romero, Alberto Puello and Yoelvis Gomez.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201c[Salas has] brought back some of that Cuban schooling, which I had lost a little bit when I came to the States and was training in Houston [Texas]. Going back to your roots is always important.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was also a communication [barrier] in my last camp, but with everyone now speaking the same language, and being on the same page, it\u2019s had a really positive impact [on his training].\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>With Salas in his corner, Morrell has seemingly rediscovered the silky skills that brought him considerable success in the amateurs.<\/p>\n<p>Now hoping to showcase his talent to a UK audience, when he faces Chelli, the 28-year-old appears ready to prove why he is one of the premier contenders at 175lbs.<\/p>\n<p>                        <!-- Article End --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/boxingnewsonline.net\/features\/morrell-expects-smith-after-chelli\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>David Morrell fully expects his WBO \u2018interim\u2019 title fight to be rescheduled, despite there being an element of uncertainty as to when Callum Smith will return to action.
