Andrew Sanchez reacts to opponent’s ‘obnoxious’ trash talk: ‘You’re not just going to come and beat the s—t out of me’

Andrew Sanchez has an issue with how Marvin Vettori is promoting their UFC Vancouver bout.

Sanchez (11-4) criticized his opponent for talking trash in a recent interview. “It’s unfortunate and I refuse to play that role. You know, spewing out generic bulls—t. I heard Vettori — and I haven’t looked up much about what he has to say — but a short little interview saying ‘I’m fighting Sanchez’ and why. It’s just the most generic, ‘I’m going to finish him in two rounds, I’m Mr. Tough Guy.’ It’s like he has nothing better to say. It’s kind of obnoxious to me and I don’t want to drop to that level,” Sanchez told Kajan Johnson and Shakiel Mahjouri on the Pull No Punches podcast.
