Smiling through Staredown: Chordale Booker’s non-confrontative style contrasts abruptly with the “Med-Mugging” by Sebastian Fundora

Chordale Booker seemed uncomfortable during yesterday’s face for his fight against WBC champion and WBO 154-LB Sebastian Fundora this Saturday, March 22, for his PT ET / 17:00 PM event, live at PBC. Main video. Ringwalks for Fundora vs. Booker will be around 10.30 pm ET / 19:40 pt pt.

Chordale (23-1, 11 kos) continued to smile every time he was asked to face and Fundora (21-1-1, 13 kos) had to encourage him to get into character for it. You could say that Chordale sees these things for what they are. It is advertising. Is not the type of trying their opponents Average mugging As many fighters often do. These things do not work, but insecure boxers often use it.

Much of Fundora’s victory on the victory over Wbo Junior Middleweight champion, Tim Tszyu, last March has disappeared after Aussie was forgotten in three brutal rounds by 154 -pound IBF champion Bakhram Murtazaliev Last October.

However, Fundora took 12 exhausting rounds to defeat Tszyu for a decision divided into a blood bath. Sebastian’s victory was helped by a deep cut of the scalp that Tim suffered in the second round after an accidental elbow was struck.

Boxing fans do not know the good founder because Tszyu and Erickson Lubin are their only remarkable victories during their nine -year career. Prior to Fundora’s annoying victory over Tszyu, Brian Mendoza had been eliminated in the seventh round on April 8, 2023.

“Rocky-Style”

“I think it was a good struggle for what it was. I think Tim Tszyu’s mind was not there, honestly,” said Sebastian Fundora during yesterday Training in the mediaDiscussing his latest opponent, the recent Tszyu loss to the IBF Junior Middleweight, Bakhram Murtazaliev champion.

“We see a lot of boxing,” founded founder when asked if she studied a lot in Chordale Booker’s past fights. “We know what works and does not work. We are in this ring a day later or a couple of hours after seeing these fights.

“We see what works and what does not work for us. We see what is real in sport. It is difficult. This is not for the weakness of the heart. This is definitely a rocky style training field,” Fundora said on the hard work he prepared for his title defense against Booker.
