Fundora Set For Fourth WBC Title Defense

WBC welterweight/" class="internal-link text-bone underline decoration-ash/30 hover:decoration-gold underline-offset-2">super welterweight champion Sebastian Fundora defends his title October 17 at The Chelsea inside The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas against mandatory challenger Ermal Hadribeaj.

Fundora won the vacant title with a split decision over Tim Tszyu in 2024 and has since stopped Chordale Booker, Tszyu in a rematch, and Keith Thurman. Hadribeaj, unbeaten at 32, enters off a unanimous decision win over Bakary Samake in May.

"I'm going to be prepared for the fight Fundora is gonna bring. If he takes me lightly, he's gonna be in for a big surprise," Hadribeaj

The card also features Brandon Figueroa defending his WBA featherweight title against Tomoki Kameda in the co-main event, along with a bout between two-division champion Jermall Charlo and Koen Mazoudier.
