Tim Tszyu is set to clash with Sebastian Fundora for the WBO title and the open WBC 154-pound title in Las Vegas at the T-Mobile Arena on March 30. This change comes after Keith Thurman had to bow out due to a bicep injury. Fundora, known for his engaging fighting style and towering presence, steps up from the pay-per-view’s opening fight to the main event spotlight.

The event, starting at 8 p.m. ET, will also spotlight WBA Super Lightweight Champion Rolando Romero against Isaac Cruz, and WBA Middleweight Champion Erislandy Lara against Michael Zerafa. The opening fight now features Julio César Martínez defending his title against Angelino Cordova, a bout originally set for the prelims.

Before the main pay-per-view, there’s a preliminary lineup starting at 6 p.m. ET with Elijah García facing Kyrone Davis and Serhii Bohachuk taking on Brian Mendoza for the Interim WBC Super Welterweight Title, a match that got reshuffled due to the lineup changes.

Tszyu, unbeaten and riding high from a successful 2023, looks to continue his dominance in the super welterweight division. Fundora, on the other hand, aims to rebound from a recent defeat and use his height and aggressive style to his advantage.
