Errol Spence has to improve his quickness if he wants to beat the current champion.

On the height comparison, there's a huge difference as it looks like David vs Goliath.

Errol Spence : 5"10'
Sebastian Fundora : 6"6'
This is true, the height comparison and his quickness matters the most which will push him in the corner of getting beat. His last fight with Bud makes him like an amateur who can't throw a precise punch, he should work hard on it to get the fame back or else he will just end up like Thurman.

Spence has not won a fight in 2 years, and the last time he was in the ring he took a serious beating against Crawford. There is reason to question whether Spence can still become champion. Fundora is a very flawed fighter who was lucky to become champion because Tim Tszyu fought almost their entire fight while being blinded by his own blood.

The WBO will probably strip Fundora for not fighting his mandatory, Terence Crawford. It is obvious that neither of these fighters can really compete against Crawford, which is why Al Haymon is having them fight each other instead and was willing to give up 1 of the belts.

There is also the matter of Serhii Bohachuk, who is WBC interim champion. The WBC created a mess by having multiple champions, but as long as they are collecting twice as many fees there will be no urgency to order a unification.

At last, they are finalizing it, if you all remember Spence called out Fundora after he beat Tszyu, Spence is raring to go for a title shot after that humiliating loss to Crawford, he wants to bounce back quickly at the expense of Fundora.
This is a very interesting fight, Fundora was an underdog against Tzsyu but he managed to prove naysayers wrong he could do the same here, Spence is a favourite here but we never know his state of mind if he is ready to face tough fighters like Fundora, instead of getting a tune fight Spence right away go for a title shot and Fundora is not an easy fight.
But I believe with Spence's experience he can pull this one and regain the titles.

This fight shows up in my feeds there's still no date of the fight but I'm sure this fight will happen, Errol also hinted at retirement after this fight Fundora.

Spence May Retire After Title Fight With Fundora

This is the first time Spence will be fighting a boxer who is much taller than him but his chances of beating Fundora are good because Fundora although a very tall guy is not using his height and reach advantage to the fullest he prefers to slug it out and this is where Spence excel Brian Mendoza has shown to the world how to beat a guy like Fundora so I'm sure Spence knows where to target Fundora.

The huge difference in height might be a significant factor in this match. Since Spence knows his disadvantage on this aspect, he should very well enhance all the other aspects of his boxing skills. Otherwise, he can easily be defeated by Fundora. And that for sure will send him to his retirement. And I don't think he would want to retire as a loser.

Aside from that, Fundora is much younger than Spence and fought recently. So this is not an easy fight for Spence. The odds may be close to each other. But I guess, this fight may go the distance if both boxers will be too careful with their moves inside the ring. Let us wait first for the confirmation of this fight. Maybe, they are still arranging the purse split for these 2 boxers.

If this is the fight of Canelo, I would think that it's easy for him but I haven't see Spence yet beat a very all boxer, so this is his first time to challenge a big one that is also heavy at the same time. Being a challenger, he needs to show his aggressiveness so if this will reach to the scorecards ( in case he can't KO Fundora) he would earn a nod to the judges.

Good luck for him, hopefully he can comeback to being a champion so he'll meet with Crawford again in this division.

What's your take in this fight? Spence might be the favorite when the betting line opens.

Based on the odds listed in https://www.oddschecker.com/us/boxing-mma/boxing/sebastian-fundora-v-errol-spence-jr... yes....
Spence is listed at -250, while his opponent is +210. By his popularity, he should be the favorite, and he is moving up so probably he think he is more comfortable at this weight even against a taller guy. However, I would not bet on him despite being the favorite as I find him slow after he got schooled by Crawford, I don't know but I have this feeling that he'll experience his 2nd loss.

Correct, there should be question in Spence because on how Crawford dominated him. And maybe if Fundora can hurt him in this fight, he will see flashes of that fight and so he will be affected mentally. And with that way Fundora won his fight against Tim Tszyu, it was a bloody fight but it shows how tough he is and so Spence will be tested here and we don't know if he still has it.

Most likely winner facing the winner of Madrimov and Crawford fight for another unification at 154 lbs.


His last fight was July 2023, so he is off for almost a year, it's just right to question his capability as he came from a big loss in that undisputed fight versus Crawford. And yes, Fundora is a tough guy, he was a heavy dog against Tim Tszyu but he manage to beat the champion.

I have checked his record on his popular site, https://boxrec.com/en/box-pro/773847.. it seems like the fight is not yet added, so let's wait until it's officially announce but I would say that this is a great comeback fight for Spence.

Also there is a issue with Spence and his former trainer Derrick James, and so wondering who will train Spence in this fight and that legal battle could be a noise as well in the background for him.
He needs to find a new one, someone that is good and he trust, he can't train with a trainer anymore if he is not fully confident the trainer is not anymore effective for him.

There is a report for a reliable source that Spence is making his comeback fight this October against the recent WBC champion Sebastian Fundora at 154 lbs. So it's obvious that the rematch with Crawford is not going to happen at 147 lbs as both have move up to Jr. Middleweight already.

As Crawford has a scheduled fight with Madrimov with the WBA belt on the line as well.

Big test literally for Spence to make a comeback fighting the tall Fundora.

What's your take in this fight? Spence might be the favorite when the betting line opens.
