In the presence of basketball luminaries Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Carmelo Anthony, and Kawhi Leonard, the fighter whose physique resembled that of an NBA player failed to deliver the anticipated knockout.
Sebastian Fundora, instead, showcased his evolving boxing skills by enduring all 12 rounds against resilient Spaniard Sergio Garcia in their WBC super welterweight elimination bout. Despite the disappointment evident in the crowd when the 6-foot-6 Fundora was declared the unanimous decision winner on the Gervonta Davis-Isaac Cruz undercard at Staples Center.
Judges Lou Moret (118-110) and Alejandro Rochin (117-111) scored 10 and nine rounds, respectively, for Fundora in a contest that appeared far more competitive. The third judge, Tom Carusone, favored Fundora with a score of 115-113. Fundora, a tall southpaw, maintained his undefeated record (18-0-1, 12 KOs).
This victory propels the fourth-ranked Fundora into a final WBC eliminator against top-rated Erickson Lubin (24-1, 17 KOs). The winner of Fundora-Lubin will earn a title shot against WBC 154-pound champion Jermell Charlo (34-1-1, 18 KOs), who is set to face WBO champion Brian Castano (17-0-2, 12 KOs) in a rematch on February 26.
Fundora’s previous three fights ended in knockouts against Nathaniel Gallimore, Habib Ahmed, and Jorge Cota, respectively. Sergio Garcia, Spain’s number two contender in their division, suffered his first defeat as a professional (33-1, 14 KOs).
Throughout the match, Fundora and Garcia exchanged blows, with notable moments such as Garcia’s right hand that momentarily staggered Fundora in the 11th round. Despite Garcia’s aggression and attempts to land significant blows, Fundora’s defense and strategic strikes ensured his victory.

Second look at that punch shows you urgency for that cut again the overhand right and that was changes in that last round that were pretty good A right hand both from time to time and then this was the eye catching left hook but really this has fistic fireworks written all
Over it he doesn’t want to use it he wants to fight on the inside we introducing to you first on my right with a record of 33 wins no losses introducing s Garcia a record of 17 wins no losses one draw introducing The Undefeated Phenom

Punches sometimes do land Kota was a you’re right that’s fascinating oh and four straight including three in a row by knockout Garcia doesn’t know what it’s like to lose a boxing match Abner High work rate as we mentioned and he does have some TR that he once
Made 140 the fact that he is a lefty on top of everything yeah that adds to but Fundora you know Fundora is now the the boxer gar to his Advantage you know Garcia almost HS he hopes to put on a master class in this huge includes his most impressive win to date over
Nathaniel all 14 of his amateur fights and all 33 of his profile you know what I’ll mentioned and and and you know he’s almost Anthony Joshua’s height has an 8 you know what’s interesting is that Garcia is known to be a boxer yeah what he has to do right uppercut on the
Inside an aggressive start aggressive start by against this tall a fighter but he will throw it a lot and it is Garcia bringing the fight to fondor some sweet science on the part of Sebastian Pondora Landing some a straight left hand and that was keep touching walk in look jaas 4
And0 professional record his mother was a fighter so fondor beginning to press forward with the and Garcia it’s try to boxor because even if he tries to move backwards he said she could punch I wonder how gr spurt at age 14 going from 56 to 61 completely alter who
You are that’s not easy I mean normally he would never fight this fight Garcia days but again has put together three consec six what 6 in shorter he’s not having a bad round here he’s landed some pretty good shots you know the problem for Garcia though is you fought your whole
Exactly and if it was maybe just of the food against this big tall fighter and for Garcia he hasn’t faced a Sal and now it’s six Garcia and for fondor he has open it’s almost impossible because you got to throw down you know you got undefeated Fighters hopes to go8
No tonight that’s impressive you know and he he said you know I’m not even going to try 51 day break a sixth round knockout Victory it’s for fondor right upper cut on the inside connects and really when fondor gets hit is be when he exactly F right applies when he throws those wide
Looping punches he can get countered he can toward him but that’s hard to do when you’re going forward I’d like to go home and redo the keeps the victory cuz Pondora 8 in taller so you know his dad who trains him right uppercut by Garcia years of age maturing as a human being
As well and you’re right pondor because again he’s always going to be the taller man Even though fondor is known for that punch wanting to get as close as possible and do as much punches really well one two uppercut and he’s well he’s upper cut s the 154 but everyone’s small compared to
Sebastian fondura the right hand by fondura before he switches stances out yeah 59 somebody zo has got to go who wanted to fight on the inside you know it’s there’s a left hand to landed for fondor right fondor with that right hook yeah I always finish in and by the way
We did ask him ever think about basketball he said maturing is a fighter and and that he’s really learning cool very methodical to get it minute left defense good head movement on the ropes and you fur’s done oh there’s a right hand to the body by fondor contr from the outside falling in
Falling in falling in falling in B round four on to win the trilogy in that last meeting one of the greatest heavyweight doing some pretty good work on the inside with the short uppercuts and right hook he has not doing much for it to make it make him feel
Uncomfortable meaning and he is beginning to hold that uppercut again reach and now you give yourself an opportunity to throw the overhand right enjoy big successes on the big stage of boxing the upset far that blood is is traveling from the eye of carcia fondor loves to study tape of older fight
This fight has settled into an interesting pattern with well well he feels comfortable you know when when the fighter gets in there go downstairs a little more that uppercut Jack the JW a cut around uh the eye of Garcia by sandor Martin on Mikey Garcia Kiko Willie Pep and he loves watching Tyson
Fury um and you know it’s intrig down there already once you work the body he’s always trying to head hunt uppercut [Applause] between two undefeated 154s here we look on the inside the uppercut by fondor emergency for that cut again the overhand right and that round number five Abner it’s it’s
Going to be hard Garcia like for instance right there he’s inside right hook and couple of those uppercuts got a pull right hand missed the uppercut he come back with the hook there it is fighting down moving forward lands the right uppercut on the inside and counter
W I mean honestly fandora doesn’t give uppercuts but again you know fandora comes back with his own uppercut oh the uppercut misses for Garcia he’s in the entertainment business this is Show Business he’s a product nice right hook left hand bit sluggy there sluggish fandora we are through five at Staple Center
Los it’s not discouraging Garcia but well he’s kept him at bab well though for a lot of the time in this is a good inside fighter and there we see demonstrations of it with the I want to see fendor to follow up the distance for Garcia just 14 of his 33
Win it’s been a good run for fondor though if his punches a little bit more round number six scheduled for 12 and 100 normally averages 80 punches per round then again you know he needs to put up the volume a little bit more Pondora can land that did mention
Both of them coming off career long layoffs transplanted yes 4 Spain but from Argentina yeah making his American debut and eating that left hand the right to the do that against this tall rangey fighter and fondor a little handing it with impunity so both of them wanting to make
Sure Garcia lands and while Sergio Martinez calling Spain p also a artine the one half of this 154b fight is in the book jab against his fighter it’s a punch he should use more times what the judges see is how they score and his his fight punches a
Very power puncher he doesn’t do this normally and now right hand to the body right hand misses upstairs for Garcia pass the midp point of the seventh uppercut again in the volume we used to either and I would like for him to do that on the break by
Right hand by Garcia but that righted uppercut is scored pretty good round for Garcia I have him ahead at this point 5955 has landed over a 100 of his power shots as you would expect Pondora opening up a plethora of uppercuts this is round number eight scheduled for 12 150 little more
Aggression you would like to see fur sit down and deliver with back an uppercut straight lap he’s landing at will but then yeah you know uh Garcia has so much more experien T you know there are a couple of these rounds I don’t think they’re going to be that easy to
Score but he is controlling the fight I think Garcia is making a little bit of a statement here in round bringing does make for an interesting fight for fondor but he’s just not trying he’s notora landed twice as many Pondora with a cut man he said hey after you got two two
Two kns of a su for catch up is for Garcia you know a little closer but I agree with him he’s D I think he’s kind of controlling things against fondor now Garcia round number nine Davis crew still to come being in the aggressive Pondora boxing with the
Left Garcia goes to the body where the sparring partners get housed as we look at Steve’s the penous to the 154lb division Asing obviously it’s fondor Garcia’s to be a more formidable Foe for javante there’s a right hand that Clips fondor baring Partners come and stay there with them which is intriguing you
Don’t patterns in there he’s throwing more punches he’s throwing double the amount of punches of there’s 10 time NBA Allstar Camelo Anthony NBA Allstar in a member of the 2020 NBA champ anything is possible for Kevin Garnett and the truth Champion as we begin round number
10 see if we see a little bit more urgency from Garcia right uppercut by the platform where you really want to show your talent this is platform you know listen I think that the nature of this matchup pred he’s the one trying to make this fight in the last three or four rounds
On this fight because he has these physical advantages meaning you win a fight where you really didn’t win the crowd and that’s what you want to do 10th round scheduled for 12 you talk about urgency you know again people are watching the fight right now uh he’s
Trying to fight a whole different fight there’s a nice jab by him but uh he can’t do it so the question is can fondor this is not the fight that Garcia ever would fight now with the Clippers of course another Los Angeles team that g you got
Better G in there I know you do okay let’s go and work that body let’s go round number 11 and there’s a left hand down the middle that scor to get something started here in this round that’s definitive you know he’s the type of guy that will sit there and trade punches
With you he’s an aggressive you know we talked about talked about the with recent fights in which he showed demonstrated that power and fondor going to the body with a definition perfect way to show sitting down on your punches he from Pondora but he muted it immediately but the with the
Z gets the right uppercut Garcia lands a right and left he’s been pretty accurate with his punching from long range like aages 80 uh Garcia averages 106 but and he’s uh you know kind of trying to CH there we go Garcia is throwing his punches as well well here will come back
As much as he’d like or as he should be but still Pandora with a Bora and right uper he’s used to throwing around throughout this fight that’s been the case go at the Staple Center in La changes in that last round that were pretty good A right hand both this is
That kind of eye-catching uppercut at the end of the rounding skills come on let’s go you got this round to do it yeah it has happened hasn’t it go straight back and yet with less or just over two minutes left if fondor has not been able to hurt Garcia immutable
Problem nice uppercut by fondor wanting an opportunity and a CH only from time to time oh my round that’s right that would be intriguing two are made of you don’t want to go back to the dressing room would normally hurt fondor so between those two Garcia wanting to be the
Sprinkler they’re both trying in this especially on this stage on this night Garcia in terms of the physical dimensions of fondor it’s I think it malfunctioned in that movie didn’t it I’m pretty sure Garcia continues to come forward lands the left the left hand and
Garcia with a a burst the comp the work on the inside fondor nice combination their nicknames proving to be more dramatic than the fight tonight A unanimous decision here are the score total 118 to 110 the Towering Inferno Sebastian this was a really awkward fight it was a tough stylistic fight
Wasn’t it like I said I just wanted to display something different from what I’m used to Sam watch do whatever whynd man he’s a b man fondor with Dr Lou mored had it 118 110 A
