Sebastian Fundora has a two-inch height and reach advantage on Oleksandr Usyk, who holds the IBF-WBA-WBO heavyweight titles. Fundora, who is 24, holds the interim WBC super welterweight title.
He’s been the biggest matchup problem in boxing for years now. On Saturday, when he meets Carlos Ocampo at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California, in the main event of a card broadcast on Showtime, Fundora will have a six-and-a-half-inch height advantage and seven inches in reach.
There are plenty of advantages to having such a height and reach advantage, but squeezing a body that large into these weights isn’t always easy. The strategy against fighters with long arms like the Fundoras is to crowd them and take away their punching room, but Sebastian and Gabriela have seen that so many times and have been able to adjust.
The Fundoras are competitive in the ring as well as with each other in pretty much every aspect of their lives. They’re close as can be, but when it comes to singing or doing karaoke, the competition is cutthroat. Sebastian Fundora agreed to take on Ocampo, who is 34-1, as sort of a stay-busy fight. He’s focused on big things and would like a bout with undisputed super welterweight champion Jermell Charlo.
