Sebastian Fundora will take on Keith Thurman in a fight for the WBC Super Welterweight Championship. The action is set to unfold at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on March 28, 2026, ensuring fans witness a thrilling contest between two experienced boxers.
Fundora, known as the 'Towering Inferno,' enters the ring with an impressive record of 23 wins, one loss, and one draw. Standing tall at nearly two meters, he has accumulated 15 knockout victories. Recent years have shown Fundora rack up notable wins against opponents like Tim Tszyu and Chordale Booker. However, Brian Mendoza handed him an unexpected defeat in 2023.
On the other side, seasoned fighter Keith Thurman presents a formidable challenge with his record of 31 wins and just a single loss against Manny Pacquiao back in 2019. Now aged 37, Thurman looks to make waves following his successful debut at 154 pounds last year when he knocked out Brock Jarvis. Despite giving up significant height to Fundora—an 18-centimeter difference—Thurman's experience and power shouldn't be underestimated.
The championship bout has clear stakes for both fighters. Fundora aims to defend his title and cement his status as a dominant force in the division. Meanwhile, Thurman seeks redemption and hopes to secure the championship win that bolsters his comeback story.

Experts from Marca predict that Fundora will retain his title due to his constant activity in recent bouts and considerable advantages such as reach and punching volume over the shorter Thurman.
Fans will also enjoy a high-profile undercard that promises excitement before the main event takes center stage in this much-discussed matchup.
