Sebastian Fundora’s team is pledging to offer Tim Tszyu a rematch of the two warriors’ world championship bloodbath in Las Vegas. Tszyu’s immediate future in boxing has been uncertain since he relinquished his WBO super-welterweight belt to Fundora in a controversial split-decision defeat on Sunday. The Australian was cruelly denied the chance to fight fair and square after walking into the Towering Inferno’s elbow and suffering a gruesome head gash.
Acknowledging Tszyu’s bravery, Fundora even offered the vanquished Australian one of his belts in a touching dressing-room gesture post fight. But, boxing being boxing, a rematch with Fundora may not necessarily materialise. Already there have been reports that the WBO is set to order Fundora to take on Crawford, who two weeks ago announced he would exercise his right as WBO welterweight champion to be named mandatory challenger for Sunday’s winner.
