“I’m fine, I relaxed for one second and now, but I think this is boxing, this happens here,” said the former WBC super middleweight champion Sebastian Fundora after his shocking seventh-round stoppage this Saturday against an underdog Brian Mendoza, whose chances of winning were regarded as 1 to 10.

“I just missed a beat. I threw a few punches and then missed it myself. He threw this blow through his arm the whole fight, and I dodged. But in boxing, as soon as you lose your guard, you are punished.”

“It was a good hit. I didn't have time to react to it, but I was fine. Now I feel good, and I will definitely return. I will return to lead the division and there are ups and downs along the way. It happens, but I'll be back. I do not regret that I agreed to this fight, this is boxing. You have to fight, and you have to make good fights. Congratulations to Brian Mendoza, he did his job, but, as I said, I will be back, ”said Sebastian Fundora.
