Sebastian Fundora is hoping to start 2024 with a bang. 

He fights for the vacant WBC super welterweight title against Serhii Bohachuk as part of the Keith Thurman-Tim Tszyu pay-per-view undercard on March 30.

Fundora sees the bout as both the beginning of his career and a launching point. He has already established himself to be a top fighter in the division, with the 6ft 5ins 154-pounder naturally drawing attention based on his unique frame and his action-style with a stoppage win over top contender Erickson Lubin solidifying his status.

“The goal is to get the best fight I can get,” Fundora told BoxingScene. “Of course, I want unification, I still have that dream of undisputed [world champion].”

Fundora held the interim WBC super welterweight title but lost it last year when knocked out by Brian Mendoza. Fundora took a year-layoff when it had seemed he had been on his way to unification bouts, either with Tim Tszyu or with Jermell Charlo, the undisputed champion in the division. 

Now Fundora is focused on his former sparring partner Bohachuk first – and he has dreams of the top names in the sport afterwards. 

“If I could fight the [Terence] Crawfords, if I could fight the [Errol] Spences, if I could fight say a [Manny] Pacquiao, whoever it is – I’ll do it,” added Fundora. 

If all goes well for Fundora, he might not just be a super welterweight world champion, with his willingness to land high-profile fights and the ability to move up in through the weight classes. 

“I have the height to go up in weight,” Fundora told BoxingScene. “If I ever need to go up in weight to fight the Canelos or whatever. Not that I would [move up to super middleweight] right now. If the opportunity shows, I will definitely take it, and I will make my mark in the history book of boxing.”

Fundora, aged 26, is training near Bakersfield, California and he holds a record of 20-1-1, 13 KOs. He is two years younger than his opponent, Bohachuk, who is 28-years-old, and is 23-1, 23 KOs.
