Australia’s Tim Tszyu will be gunning to become a unified pro-boxing champion in the super welterweight category when he faces off against American boxer Sebastian Fundora at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, USA, on Sunday.
Tim Tszyu will be defending his WBO super welterweight title in Sin City while the vacant WBC title is also on the line.
The main card in Las Vegas starts from 11:00 AM AEDT while the Tim Tszyu vs Sebastian Fundora fight is scheduled to start at 2:30 PM. The boxing match will be available to watch live in Australia.
A win for Tszyu on his Vegas debut would also take the Australian boxer one step closer to becoming the undisputed super welterweight champion. The IBF title is currently vacant while Israil Madrimov holds the WBA belt in the division.
Heading into the fight, the 29-year-old Aussie superstar boasts a 24-0 undefeated record with 17 of the wins coming via knockouts.
Fundora, 26, meanwhile, has a record of 20-1-1 with his only loss coming at the hands of Brian Mendoza of the USA last April, which also happened to be his last professional fight. Thirteen of Fundora’s wins have been knockouts.
Tszyu defeated Mendoza to retain his WBO title at home last October.
Though Tszyu is the more accomplished and experienced boxer of the two on paper, Fundora poses a unique challenge to the Aussie superstar. At 6’5”, the American is taller than any boxer in his division and holds a sizable height and reach advantage over Tszyu, who stands 5’9” tall.
However, with Tszyu known for his devastating body blows, the difference in height may just play in the Aussie’s favour.
While Tim Tszyu vs Sebastian Fundora will be the headline fight in Las Vegas, the main card will also see Tszyu’s fellow Aussie Michael Zerafa challenge Erislandy Lara for the WBA middleweight title.
