Richard Torrez Jr. says he expects his pressure and conditioning to turn into a significant component against Frank Sanchez on Saturday night in Egypt. Torrez believes Sanchez is dangerous early, especially together with his jab and counter right hand, but feels the fight becomes harder for the Cuban contender because the rounds go on.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI feel Frank does an important job of lulling you. He\u2019ll throw that one jab, that one jab, after which he\u2019ll include a extremely quick one with a strong two. That\u2019s something I gotta keep my eye on,\u201d said Torrea Jr. to talkSport Boxing.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel the difference between me and Frank is Frank has the chance for one shot, and if not then it\u2019s gonna be a scary fight for him. For me, it\u2019s that pressure. It\u2019s that tenacity and as those rounds go on is where I get my money in.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Torrez also said the fight could give him a probability to indicate more of his boxing skills reasonably than only being viewed as an aggressive pressure fighter. The unbeaten heavyweight added that he sees himself as a part of the brand new generation carrying the division forward for American heavyweights.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel Frank has an important probability for me to showcase my boxing ability more because I even have to bring it out. I\u2019m really excited for this fight to showcase that I can actually box as well,\u201d said Torrez Jr.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe heavyweight division is so volatile straight away. You never know who\u2019s going to be on top. It\u2019s changing every month it seems like. I actually need to place us on the market for the USA and say we\u2019re here to remain as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Later within the interview, Torrez praised Oleksandr Usyk as a job model for smaller heavyweights and welcomed the thought of a future fight against Moses Itauma.<\/p>\n

\u201cOleksandr Usyk has definitely been a job model to me as well. He really has knocked on the door for a variety of these smaller heavyweights,\u201d said Torrez Jr.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel [Moses Itauma] is an important fighter. He\u2019s fast, he\u2019s quick, he has incredible capability, but again, I feel that he hasn\u2019t fought a fighter like me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Torrez closed by making it clear how highly he rates himself heading into the most important fight of his skilled profession.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI\u2019m extremely confident in my ability. I wouldn\u2019t be on this game anymore if I didn\u2019t think I used to be the perfect. I consider I\u2019m the perfect in boxing, and I\u2019m here to prove it,\u201d said Torrez Jr.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
