Sampson Lewkowicz, the mastermind behind Sebastian Fundora’s recent victory as the WBC and WBO 154-Pound World Champion, is eager to clarify the rumors surrounding a potential rematch with Tim Tszyu. He reveals, “In our eagerness to get the fight underway, we relied more on handshakes than signed contracts. Unfortunately, time slipped away from us. However, rest assured, our word is our bond. A handshake with us holds the same weight as gold. Tim Tszyu, the ring is open for you whenever you are prepared to step up and face Fundora once more.”
According to Lewkowicz, the decision for a rematch is up to Tim Tszyu. The fight could happen immediately or after Tszyu has had a warm-up match, depending on his preference. In a battle that kept fans at the edge of their seats, Fundora emerged victorious, capturing the titles in a brawl that will go down in history. Despite one judge favoring Tszyu, Fundora secured the win with his relentless jab and powerful punches, demonstrating determination and willpower in the ring. Tszyu initially dominated the match, landing his right hands effectively until a stray elbow from Fundora caused a game-changing injury. Despite the setback, Tszyu pushed forward, even as his vision blurred, and Fundora’s jab became more accurate. Fundora, following in the footsteps of his sister Gabriela, fought through adversity with a broken nose, showcasing his resilience. Utilizing his reach, Fundora peppered Tszyu with jabs and left hooks, confirming that the heart of a champion runs in the family. Lewkowicz commended both fighters, stating, “This was more than just a fight; it was a display of their courage. Tszyu could have quit, but he chose to fight on. Fundora, despite being covered in blood, maintained the pressure, exemplifying true greatness. Kudos to both fighters. The true victors? The fans, who witnessed a display of bravery on Amazon Prime Video, starting off with a bang.”
