Sebastian Fundora recently took to social media to confirm that his fight with Errol Spence is still happening, despite rumors of Spence’s retirement following his knockout loss to Terence Crawford. Fundora, also known as ‘The Towering Inferno’, expressed confidence in the upcoming match, dismissing claims of Spence’s withdrawal by stating, “Nah, they just changing the date.” Many boxing fans believe that Spence may be in over his head facing Fundora, especially after Fundora’s impressive victory over WBO 154-lb champion Tim Tszyu. Despite Tszyu fighting with a cut scalp for most of the fight, Fundora still managed to dominate, showcasing his formidable skills in the ring. This version of Fundora poses a significant threat to Spence and will undoubtedly test his abilities as a fighter.
There has been speculation surrounding Spence’s physical condition leading up to the fight, with questions arising about potential injuries or setbacks preventing him from competing in November. However, reports suggest that Spence is in good shape compared to his appearance before his bout with Crawford. Spence’s improved physique indicates that he has not had to undergo drastic weight cuts, which could have impacted his performance in previous fights. The significance of being in top physical condition cannot be understated, especially when facing someone like Fundora, who possesses unique physical attributes such as height and reach advantages. At 6’6″, Fundora’s height poses a challenge for opponents, making it difficult for them to adjust their game plan accordingly. While Spence may benefit from a tune-up fight before taking on Fundora, he appears determined to face the formidable opponent head-on, showcasing his confidence and willingness to test his skills against the best in the division.
As the anticipation for the Spence vs. Fundora fight continues to build, fans are eager to see how the two fighters match up in the ring. With Fundora’s recent success and Spence’s physical transformation, the bout promises to be an exciting and competitive showdown. While some may question Spence’s decision to skip a tune-up fight, his commitment to facing tough challenges demonstrates his dedication to his craft and pursuit of greatness in the boxing world. As the fight date approaches, all eyes will be on Spence and Fundora as they prepare to step into the ring and showcase their skills on a global stage.
