Sebastian Fundora focused on landing a fight against Terence Crawford
Sebastian Fundora (21-1-1, 13 KOs) is focused on landing a fight against Terence Crawford.
The team of WBO and WBC World super-welterweight champion hope to land the fight.
It was reported of possible fight between Fundora and Errol Spence Jr. But Fundora’s promoter Sampson Lewkowicz insists that they want Crawford fight.
On August 28, WBO ordered the Interim super-welterweight champion Crawford (41-0, 31 KOs) to face Fundora. It was said both camps have 30 days to agree deal or the matchup would be sent to purse bid.
Although an agreement hasn’t been announced yet, Lewkowicz realizes that Crawford is committed to climbing up to 168 pounds, hoping to get a crack at super middleweight king Saul “Canelo” Alvarez.
“It looks like Crawford only wants to fight Canelo,” Lewkowicz told BoxingScene. “If Canelo gets $100 million for the Crawford fight, he will take it and knock the shit out of Crawford. He’s not stupid. It’s an easy fight, and that’s it. It’s the end of Crawford’s career. If Canelo doesn’t take the Crawford fight, we’re ready to fight Crawford. All of our efforts are on Crawford. We have nothing else in mind. We want to fight Crawford. Sebastian believes that he will beat Crawford, and when he does, he will become a superstar. Sebastian has the balls and is a dangerous fight for anybody.”
