Despite the disruption of his fight with Sebastian Fundora, Ukrainian first middleweight boxer Serhiy Bogachuk will still make an appearance on Boxing Night on March 30 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, USA.
Following Keith Thurman 's withdrawal from the WBO title fight due to an injury sustained in training camp, Fundora has been named as Tim Tszyu 's new opponent in the main event of the upcoming event. The WBO and WBC championship belts will be on the line.
World Boxing Council President Mauricio Sulaiman told Boxing Scene that Bogachuk will now challenge for the interim WBC title in a fight with Brian Mendoza. At the same time, the head of the organization could not confirm that the winner of this fight will get a chance to fight the strongest in the Tszyu-Fundora fight.
