    Yeah, that version of him came in at a career heaviest, he has looked a lot better when he was in the low/mid 220ies and not 240 pounds like in his last fight.

    Sanchez is much faster, Hrgovic is stronger and punches harder.

    Interesting matchup.

    Your disdain for Cuban's who use their legs is well known. Sanchez outboxes Hrgvic

    Let's send this one down to the lab for some scientific analysis

    Some interesting trivia

    Of Pero's listed 120 amateur fights he's only been stopped one other time

    Of Larduet's 179 listed amateur bouts he has only been stopped one other time too

    They're both excellent fighters and along with Erislandy Savon and Yoandry Toirac are top Cuban big men of their era

    Look at the company they've mixed in and who they've fought and beaten

    Hrgovic also stopped other top Cuban Yoandry Toirac. Hrgovic is the only man to stop him in his listed 108 bouts

    Look at who he's fought and beaten

    That may be entirely true, I'm not denying that, that style nauseates me. Hence why I appreciate Luis Ortiz and Yunier Dorticos' styles so much. That still doesn't change the fact that Hrgovic cuts the ring off and crowds his opponents very well, and I've never seen anyone be able to keep him off of them, and Frank certainly doesn't run fast enough to either.

    Leaning towards Hrgovic by late stoppage after being outboxed for the majority of the fight. But we obviously need some answers regarding Filip’s stamina to make sure.
