Sebastian Fundora vs. Chordale BookerCredit: Premier Boxing ChampionsEvery time I see WBC and WBO super welterweight champion Sebastian Fundora (21-1-1, 13 KO), despite how talented and exciting he is in the ring, the one thing I cant get over is how he not only makes 154 pounds at 6-foot-6 but shines as a unified champion.Fundora is back in action on Saturday when he takes on Chordale Booker in his first title defense since winning the titles via split decision over Tim Tszyu.Heres how you can watch the fight.Sebastian Fundora vs. Chordale Booker How to WatchDate & Location:Saturday, March 22, 2025 Michelob ULTRA Arena, Mandalay Bay, Las VegasStart Time:8:00 p.m. ETWhere to Watch:Amazon Prime Video (Live Stream)Main Card:Sebastian Fundora vs. Chordale Booker (Main Event)Undercard Fights:Jesus Ramos Jr. vs. Guido Emmanuel Schramm (10-round super welterweight)Elijah Garcia vs. Terrell Gausha (10-round middleweight)Freudis Rojas vs. Maurice Lee (8-round welterweight)Alberto Mora Garcia vs. Viktor Slavinskyi (8-round super featherweight)Jursly Vargas vs. Uhlices Avelino-Reyes (6-round lightweight)Alexis De la Cerda Landin vs. Sharone Carter (6-round super bantamweight)Joseph Brown vs. Ezequiel Duran (6-round super welterweight)Roberto Guerrero vs. Sean Armas (4-round lightweight)Quincey Williams vs. TBA (6-round super welterweight)Brayan Gonzalez vs. Justin Marquez (4-round super bantamweight)Ticket InfoIf youre in the area and interested in attending in person, tickets are available through Mandalay Bay.

Neither is facing a wild test in Guido Emmanuel Schramm and Terrell Gausha, but there is a chance Ramos Jr. could be a future opponent for Fundora.The Main Event MatchupThe fight with Booker wasnt exactly what Fundora had in mind after he pulled the upset over Tszyu as a late replacement for the injured Keith Thurman. Fundora was seemingly moving toward a fight with Errol Spence Jr. that would have been a pay-per-view clash.There have been talks of a fight with rising Puerto Rican sensation Xander Zayas, but that may be a fight that takes place down the line. For now, Fundora will clash with Booker.The challenger comes into the fight with a 23-1 record with 11 KOs. Bookers only pro loss was a first-round KO defeat against Austin Ammo Williams in April 2022. Since the loss, Booker has won six fights in a row.The fight with Fundora represents his next serious step up in competition. For Fundora, a winif hes impressiveprovides another showcase for the 27-year-old who is still in search of the megafight that will catapult him into superstardom.There are a plethora of fights available for Fundora at super welterweight and possibly even at middleweight if he continues to win. Thurman, who just had a successful comeback last week with a third-round KO win over Brock Jarvis, is an option. The same can be said for Tszyu, Spence Jr., Zayas, and others.At Fundoras height, he should be able to fight as high as 168 pounds as he gets older. For now, his focus will probably be on unifying the titles at 154 pounds. He could face the man who stopped Tszyu, IBF champion Bakhram Murtazaliev. Well see what happens on Saturday, as Im sure the talk of Fundoras next challenge will begin immediately if he wins.Be on the lookout for the post-fight coverage after the main event.
