    Torrez/Sanchez and Catterall/Giyasov are good fights, and Sheeraz is fun altho I'm not sold on him at the elite level. Haven't heard of the other fighters. What happened to Resendiz vs Munguia? That was rumoured to be on the card for a while.

    **** card, catteral giyasov will be a stinker, sheraaz fight is a mismatch and so is the main event, also Sanchez is a cripple but I can’t blame Torrez is was mandated and Sanchez is still a name.

    Sanchez will beat Richard and end his hype.

    Wasn't Sanchez out with a knee injury?

    Begic 29-0-1 23 KOs but 39 years old.

    I never want to see Catteral around a main card again for the rest of my life

    Sanchez vs Torrez Jr is ok

    The undercard is a woman's match and three matches of ???

    I look forward to Usyks next fight in 2027

    They should make this a two-hour broadcast. Plan on showing Sanchez-Torrez first. Then the Usyk fight. If there is time left when those are over, show some footage from the undercard. But this nonsense doesn't warrant six plus hours of live TV.

    There were bad undercards in the 70s and 80s, too, but they didn't waste everyone's time.

    Sanchez from the undercard would easily nail the contender from the main event into the canvas inside max two rounds :zplayita:

    I really wanna see Catterall/Giyasov and Sanchez/Torrez. I never watched May/McGregor, Fury/Ngannou, Joshua/Ngannou, Paul but now I’m buying this one despite the ridicuolus main event.
