Sebastian Fundora's manager promises Tim Tszyu a rematch after the controversial world championship bloodbath in Las Vegas.
Tszyu had to fight Fundora in Las Vegas while covered in blood after an accidental elbow opened a gash on his head.Fundora is set to fight Terence Crawford next and there is still no guarantee of a rematch with Tszyu.
Tszyu virtually battled on blindly for 10 rounds and was even awarded a 116-112 victory by one of the judges. "We were all so eager to make this fight that many of our agreements were made verbally. There wasn't enough time," Lewkowicz said. Acknowledging Tszyu's bravery, Fundora even offered the vanquished Australian one of his belts in a touching dressing-room gesture post fight.Already there have been reports that the WBO has ordered 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.
