On The Watch “It’s All About Tim Tszyu vs Sebastian Fundora”

WBO/WBC Junior Middleweight Showdown

Last night’s PBC/Prime Video Main Event at the T-Mobile Arena between WBO Junior Middleweight Champion Tim Tszyu (24-1, 17 Kos) and late replacement challenger 6 foot 5 ½ “The Towering Inferno” Sebastian Fundora (21-1-1, 13 Kos) brought one of the bloodiest showdowns inside that squared circle.

It was an intriguing bout that didn’t take much time to unfold into a bloodbath of a war after Fundora broke his nose early in the bout and then an accidental elbow cut Tszyu to the left side of his forehead in the second round and completely changed the flow of the bout.

With both combatants bleeding nonstop one from his nose the other from his head, things got really interesting on just how determined both warriors reacted to the unforeseen challenges unfolding inside that squared circle.

There was no quitting in both combatants at any time but the nonstop blood flow was visibly an issue that hindered both combatants. Tszyu who started out very well at the beginning of the bout seemed to be bothered the most with the blood going into his eyes and hindering his vision from properly executing the “game plan” at hand.

That said, I was most impressed with Fundora who looked focused and on point utilizing his height and reach the way a 6 foot 5 ½ fighter shood. Fundora boxed well and used his length and jab well making it even harder on Tszyu who tried to bully him on the inside.

Fundora surprisingly stayed disciplined throughout the bout weathering the storm of the bloodbath round by round. It was a tougher assignment then expected for both combatants but one that both accepted with open arms delivering a very entertaining show.

After 12 competitive rounds of actions the Judges at hand scored it 116-112 for Tszyu and 113-115, 112-116 for Fundora giving him the split decision making him the New Unified WBO/WBC Junior Middleweight Champion of the World.

This win here has just entered Sebastian and his sister Gabriela into the history books as the first brother and sister duo to hold Championship Titles concurrently.

You’ve bounced back from a devastating loss to now being at the head of 154-Pound Division. Well done, Champ.

On The Watch “It’s All About Rolando Romero vs Isaac Cruz”

WBA Light Welterweight Showdown

A new Champion emerged last night when Rolando Romero (15-2, 13 Kos) defended his WBA Light Welterweight Championship against the always ready “Pitbull” Isaac Cruz (26-2-1, 18 Kos) but got dominated from start to finish at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Real Talk!

Prior to the bout Rolly did a lot of talking trying to bully and talk down on Isaac but he did very little inside that squared circle to back any of it up. It was quite evident from the first bell that Isaac was in seek and destroy mode from the jump. The stalking tactics from Isaac were on full display and had the bigger man in Rolly surprisingly on his bike trying to stay away from the hungry “Pitbull” trying to catch his prey.


Whenever Rolly did try to stand his ground going toe-to-toe and exchanging shots, he showed absolutely no power in his punches which was very shocking. The nonstop pressure that Cruz was coming at him with was too much for him and was visibly breaking him down round by round.

That being said, Rolly had nothing in his arsenal to deter “Pitbull” from having his way with him inside that squared circle. Cruz’s power and relentlessness with his ambition to crush the opposition was all that he needed to put Rolly away. By the eight round the referee at hand had seen enough one-sided damage being administered towards Rolly that he opted to stop the bout. Rightfully so.

With this emphatic win now under his belt Isaac becomes the New WBA Light Welterweight Champion of the World.

Well done, Champ! Mexico stand Up!

On The Watch “It’s All About Seniesa Estrada vs Yokasta Valle”

Minimumweight Unification Showdown

At Last night’s Top Rank/ESPN + Co Main Event between undefeated WBA/WBC/Ring Magazine Minimumweight Champion Seniesa Estrada (26-0, 9 Kos) and IBF/WBO Minimumweight Champion Yokasta Valle (30-3, 9 Kos), we witnessed the crowning of the first Undisputed Minimumweight Champion in women’s Boxing at the Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona.

This bout delivered a perfect ending to their well-publicised grudge match that definitely needed to be put to bed once and for all. Both combatants came out the gate aggressively trying to determine who will dictate the tempo of the bout but as the rounds progressed it was Estrada’s switch-hitting style that was causing Valle an issue.

Both combatants worked their respective “game plan” and stood their ground inside that squared circle handing out some serious leather back and forth. But it was Estrada’s boxing and precision punches from long range that gave her the edge round by round.

Valle fought a good one and made it quite competitive in the later rounds but after 10 rounds of action, all three Judges at hand scored it unanimously 97-93 in favor of Seniesa Estrada, the New Undisputed IBF/WBA/WBC/WBO/Ring Magazine Minimumweight Champion of the World!

This is a well-deserved achievement to be added to your ever-growing career and proof that dreams do come true when you work hard with dedication at making them a reality.

Congratulations Seniesa. Well done! You truly are an inspiration.
