    Usyk is a obvious favorite but I'll take all the hate from everyone and pick Sanchez if they ever fight. He'll be on the backpedel countering with combinations as Usyk pressures him like Bellew but he won't gas

    He's the darkhorse of the division. Not Hrgovic, not Anderson, not Gassiev, but Sanchez

    Sanchez is good, but he throws like 5 punches a round, hard for him to win a decision against a volume puncher like Usyk. he would have to go for a stoppage

    Yeah Usyk likely beats him but i like Sanchez. Underrated skill

    Bivol is another fighter who's skills i fell in love with. I knew he'd toy with Canelo. I'm a sucker for pure boxing and IQ

    Glad to see the love Sanchez is getting. If Zhang decides to retire after knocking Chisora out (no offense to Chisora of course), I will probably hop on Jalolov and Sanchez. Sanchez is lucky to be promoted in the USA, I hope he gets the opportunities Zhang didn't while still young.

    Jalolov is excellent. Very simple style but his size and stance magnifies his fighting style 3 fold.

    A 6'7 powerpunching mobile southpaw is a destructive combo. Jalolov will win a title. Too many people sleep on him. Guy is a monster

    I agree. The best feet I've ever seen on a man that large, with huge punching ability. And, of course, a southpaw. If he can put on some weight without losing his feet, he should do that, though.

    Sanchez has to start fighting guys in the top 10 to even earn a title shot. Guys like Wallin or even Whyte would be a good start. As of right now he isnt ready.

    He is ready, he just needs better promotion. Sanchez called out Wilder and Joyce but nothing has formed. I can't wait when he finally steps up

    I gotta disagree with you there bro. Hes not seasoned enough, i mean his best win is against Ajagba and hes nothing special. Just a one dimensional power puncher who Frank Sanchez dominated. Hes gotta fight guys in the top 10 so i can see where he stands. Hes got skills but lacks the championship experience.

    I meant he's ready for a top 10 opponent

    He is ready for a Parker or a Whyte. Hell he'd school Wilder right now. He's obviously better than Ortiz

    Id like to see him fight Otto Walin tbh. If he can beat Wallin then hes heading in the right direction. Ready for Usyk tho? Nah

    Sanchez needs to fight someone decent then I'll judge. I don't consider Ajagba much of a win.
