Sampson Lewkowicz, Sebastian Fundora's promoter, revealed how the negotiations about the fight with Terence Crawford's representative went.
Sampson Lewkowicz told ProBox TV Espanol:
Crawford's lawyer called me very respectfully and said 'Look, I have an offer for you to fight in Saudi Arabia with Crawford and your fighter Sebastian Fundora...'. and I said, 'Look, I thank you very much, but I don't want to hear it because he's not going to be ready until November...'." I can't negotiate when my fighter is hurt.
Crawford, 36, last stepped into the ring against Errol Spence in July 2023. That fight was won by technical knockout in the ninth round by Terence. He has 40 wins (31 by knockout) and no losses.
On March 31 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, the 26-year-old Fundora defeated Tszyu by split decision and won the WBO and WBC light middleweight titles. Sebastian's previous fight was in April 2023, when he lost to Brian Mendoza by knockout in the seventh round. He has 21 wins (13 by knockout), one loss and one draw on his record.
