“I consider Frank a formidable opponent,” Torrez Jr. conveyed to Ring Magazine. “Merely having the opportunity to face him on the same platform will truly demonstrate my rightful position. I believe my fighting approach is well-suited to counter Frank’s – my relentless offense, persistence, and endurance in the later stages of rounds will present a challenge for him. I anticipate Frank performing strongly in the initial three rounds, but once we overcome that phase, I believe victory will be within my grasp.”
These remarks by Torrez were given during an interview for Ring Magazine, anticipating the upcoming Saturday bout held near the Pyramids of Giza.
Kabayel stands as the sole boxer to have vanquished Sanchez in his professional career. The undefeated German secured a stoppage victory against him via body shots during the seventh round of their encounter in Riyadh in May 2024, following a consistent strategy of pushing Sanchez back and neutralizing his agility.
Torrez stated that he meticulously analyzed that specific match as part of his preparation for the upcoming contest.
“Kabayel is an outstanding competitor,” remarked Torrez. “He currently represents a formidable, almost mythical figure in our weight class, wouldn’t you agree? Therefore, observing his performance and strategies against Frank is certainly something I intend to examine. I believe I exert a comparable type of pressure, though my approach is slightly distinct. Mine has a bit more unpredictability and a sharper edge. Kabayel, on the other hand, applies a consistent, sustained pressure throughout the entire fight. Nevertheless, I feel I can incorporate many of the methods Kabayel utilized in that bout and dedicate everything I have.”
Furthermore, Torrez highlighted Sanchez’s torso as a potential area to attack, having observed how Kabayel managed to impede his momentum.
“I consider Kabayel an extraordinary body puncher, truly adept at crippling opponents with those shots,” Torrez commented. “However, every fighter is vulnerable to strikes directed at the body. And observing Frank’s impressive physique, I believe he has gained mass over time, becoming more muscular and robust, which I anticipate will make him even more susceptible to body blows.”
