Tim Tszyu is ready to make himself a made man in America. The WBO super welterweight champion faces Sebastian Fundora for the WBO and vacant WBC super welterweight belts on Saturday, March 30, in Las Vegas. It is the first PPV event under Premier Boxing Champions’ deal with Amazon.

Tszyu (24-0) went 3-0 in 2023, winning the interim WBO title and becoming full-time champion after Jermell Charlo got stripped of the belt. The Aussie was supposed to face Keith Thurman on the 30th until “One Time” backed out days before the fight because of injury.

Not one to lack confidence, Tszyu is ready to step up against adversity.

“There is no reason for me to back out,” Tszyu said. “I fear no man. I know I’m the best at 154, I know what I possess, it’s simple. He should be fearing me, that’s the difference. In my mind, I’m in a different era to where we are now.”

Several titles are up for grabs below Tim Tszyu vs. Sebastian Fundora, featuring fighters coming off various stints of inactivity. Here’s a breakdown of the entire Tszyu vs. Fundora undercard.
