As Keith Thurman prepares to make his return to the ring in a super welterweight title fight against WBC champion Sebastian Fundora on March 28, PBC takes fans behind the scenes of both fighters as they get ready for the ocassion.
“One can reflect and say ‘you were the unified welterweight champion, you packed out the MGM Grand,’ yeah, they can still throw me in the Hall of Fame as is, but something in my heart, something in my gut, something in my soul says the story’s not over,” Thurman said. “So
for me, don’t matter if [Fundora] is 6’6”, 6’7” — he can’t stop me…Fundora doesn’t know what’s about to hit him. He doesn’t know what the f-ck he just did.”
Fundora, however, has other plans for what’s to come.
“He wants to come in there and break my face and take my title and embarrass me that night in front of all my fans, in front of all my family. Why can’t I do the same thing?” Fundora would say. “He’s a salesman. He’s trying to sell the fight, which is good. That’s what he’s known for, that’s why they bring him out over and over. How I speak is inside the ring with my hands…I’ll show you in the ring why I’m champion.”
