Prime Video Boxing Match: Fundora vs. Booker – Saturday Fight Preview
This weekend’s most anticipated fight is the 154-pound title defense between Sebastian Fundora and Chordale Booker. Fundora, nicknamed the “Towering Inferno,” is set to defend his WBC and WBO belts in Las Vegas and comfortably made weight at 152.8 pounds. Challenger Booker also came in light at 152.6 pounds.
Fundora, with a record of 21-1-1(13), is the heavy favorite with bookmakers listing him at -1200. Booker, with a record of 23-1(11), believes he can cause an upset by defeating Fundora. It’s shaping up to be an exciting and explosive fight.
The height advantage Fundora holds has been a major talking point, standing at an impressive 6’5″ with an 80-inch reach compared to Booker’s 5’9″ stature. Fundora’s jab will be a challenge for Booker to overcome.
If Fundora wins, he could be looking at big fights in the future, while Booker could shake up the division with a victory. Fundora is coming off a tough win over Tim Tszyu in March, so ring rust may be a factor. Booker’s last fight was in June of last year, and he has won six fights since his only defeat to Ammo Williams in 2022.
Fundora is expected to win, but the question is whether he can secure a knockout or stoppage to make a statement. This battle of southpaws promises to be a thrilling fight. Let’s hope for an entertaining bout and may the best fighter win.
