    I thought Sanchez would be the one who would stop Kabayel...I got that so wrong. Perhaps an injury to the knee but Sanchez looked so lacklustre. Even with the knee, he could have changed strategies and been more aggressive to stop Kabayel from coming in so much.

      Sanchez should fight old man Ortiz in an all Cuban affair. Wouldn't mind seeing him come back against another old guy like Takam or Arreola either
      Kabayel v Parker is a great fight. Both coming off 2 good wins

        Two body shot KO's in a row at heavy; anyone know of that having happened before?

          Great win for Kabayel, but Sanchez's leg was definitely a factor in his bad performance.

            Possibly because even though they have had a great amateur career, by the time they turn pro, they are already in the later stages of their career but with wrong age mentioned.

              Kabayel looked solid but didn't impress when I first saw him against Chisora. I saw him again during the pandemic against the Greek heavyweight Lazaridis and he just slept walk to a UD win.

              Lately he's been on a tear, destroying two feared HW prospects in the process. I don't remember him this aggressive or digging to the body with this much spite.

                  Sanchez not only looked like he skipped leg day but skipped leg year.

                  He'd give Wndmill a run for best chickenlegs in show.

                  Kabayel is the true Bodysnatcher!

                    Kabayel might be the real deal. He looked impressive, but then again Sanchez had no Plan B.

                      For me it’s his phenomenal work rate and mindset…he walked straight through Frank like he was a journeyman and not an undefeated fighter with an identical record! He’s going to be a serious problem for all these AGEING Heavyweights…
