News, notes and observations while wondering what round Keith Thurman planned to step on the gas against Sebastian Fundora …
🥊 No one should have been surprised by Sebastian Fundora’s one-sided win over Keith Thurman on Saturday. The 6’ 6” Fundora is a massive junior middleweight, while Thurman, listed at 5’ 9”, is a nearly career-long welterweight fighting for just the second time at 154 pounds. Fundora battered Thurman for five-plus rounds, rocking him repeatedly and busting open his face before referee Thomas Taylor mercifully stepped in. Which, despite Thurman’s protests at the postfight press conference, was absolutely the right decision.
