This world title clash will be intriguing for several reasons. Spence has not fought since his crushing one-sided defeat against Terence “Bud” Crawford, while Fundora was involved in a war against Tim Tszyu last time, winning by split decision. It remains to be seen how much their previous fights have taken out of them.
Fundora vs. Spence
“The Towering Inferno” would undoubtedly provide a formidable challenge for Spence, who would be making his 154lbs debut. Fundora stands at 6-foot-5½ and showed against Tszyu – he can grind it out in tough, bloody fights. His sheer size would provide a unique obstacle for Spence, who would need to use all his ring IQ to close the distance to whip in his signature hooks and uppercuts.
