Comments Thread For: Frank Sanchez Embraces Possible Mandatory Fight With Tyson Fury

[hugh grant]

Please, somebody fight SOMEBODY! The HWs are looking like bitches right now.

Yes, all the heavyweights are name dropping and they've all been touted to fight each other and so they should. They should all be dancing with each other. Just do it I say. By all means fury should fight sanchez, and josh, and flip and zhang, and all of them should fight each other also rather than talk

Let's not forget Usyk. He's full of crap too. LET'S GO!!

There's so much hype surrounding this guy. He couldn't even hurt a fringe guy like Hammer.

I doubt he could even get past Whyte, Chisora, Parker, Dubois, Franklin would make him look average. Can't even imagine what Joyce and Zhang would do with this fellow.

Can't wait to see him use his bike against washed-up Arreola.

True. He's supposed to decapitate Hammer in that fight in front of Reynoso as his trainer and Canelo in the audience. Hammer was even taunting him as if to say, "You're just a nobody."

Fury wants the lion’s share plus the crumbs. It seems a bit unfair this is prize fighting.

What’s up with Wallin? I feel like he’s still living off the Rollyesque loss to Fury. I haven’t really seen him fight anybody of note. I could be wrong I have to check his Boxrec. I truly believe take away the timeline and the Fury name, Wallin won that fight via doctors stoppage. Similar to the UK guy, can’t remember his name, who clearly beat Fury but lost on cards.

I think its been a combination of fights falling through and poor management by his promotional team.

Otto had a fight lined up with Whyte that was cancelled when Dillian bottled out of and feigned injury. He was in negotiations with Ortiz and that one fizzled out. His promoter had him fighting guys like Booker but managed to get his other HW Jermaine Franklin fights against Whyte and AJ. Wallin is apparently a free agent in June so maybe that will help but he will still be a big southpaw with little to no fan base (which means risk but no reward for potential opponents).

AJ is above Sanchez in the rankings.

Surely AJ not going to duck a huge pay day and a title shot

He just did

He got offered 60/40 and a title shot to fight Fury in September and they turned it down.

So why would he then take the fight as a mandatory for 25%?

AJ and his team have their eyes on the Wilder fight in Saudi, with the Whyte fight in-between. They've been very open about it.

Sounds like a good fight. We don't know how good prospects are until given chance. They can rise to occasion
