Tszyu-Fundora Final Press Conference
Fighters competing on the inaugural PBC Pay-Per-View event available on Prime Video featuring four world title fights went face-to-face on Thursday at the final press conference before they enter the ring this Saturday, March 30 from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Tim Tszyu vs. Sebastian Fundora
(WBO/WBC super welterweight titles)
Tim Tszyu: “The show goes on and destiny awaits. Saturday night we get to fight for the belts. It’s all about collecting belts and collecting legacy. We’re going to show that the Tszyu name is the greatest boxing family of all time…of course he’s got height, but we all bleed the same blood. There’s no difference between us. I’m taking inspiration from Mike Tyson and everything he did into this fight…this is step one to where I want to be. There’s plenty of big super fights to be made in the near future.”
Sebastian Fundora: “This is the moment and the time for me to become world champion. My sister did it six months ago, and now it’s my turn…I expect the best from Tim Tszyu. This is the best fight you can make in the division. He’s number one right now and we’ll crown a new champion on Saturday night. ”
Rolly Romero vs. Isaac Cruz
(WBA super lightweight title)
Rolly Romero: “Everybody thinks this is gonna be a difficult fight, but I think this is gonna be an easy fight. He’s gonna run right into something, because he’s stupid…he’s gonna throw and throw and throw again. He does the same stuff over and over again. I’m ready for it…I’m not giving you the belt, but I can give you the chihuahua chain after the fight.”
Isaac Cruz: “If he thinks I’m stupid, then he’s even stupider. If he thinks I’m just gonna lay down, he’s very mistaken. He’s gonna realize it on Saturday night…Rolly was talking trash during the face off, but his bark is far stronger than his bite. I just want to hit him repeatedly in the face when the time comes…I’m here to wipe Rolly’s smile off his face and take his belt. That’s it. Isaac Cruz is going to be the new world champion.”
Erislandy Lara vs. Michael Zerafa
(WBA middleweight title)
Erislandy Lara: “I prove my worth inside of the ring and Zerafa will see that on Saturday night. I’m excited to be back, because I feel ready and strong…I’m gonna work hard in the ring and I feel like I’m gonna knock him out. I think it’s gonna happen before the sixth round.”
Michael Zerafa: “Saturday night ends with me as the new WBA world champion. Mark my words. …hopefully we’re coming back to Australia with three world titles, one for myself and two for Tim. Now it’s time to do it.”
Julio Cesar Martinez vs. Angelino Cordova
(WBC flyweight title)
Julio Cesar Martinez: “I’m ready to face anybody at any time. I say it all the time and I mean it. Everyone will see what I mean on Saturday night…I want to give the fans a great fight. I’m coming out one thousand percent ready and it’s going to be fireworks.
Angelino Cordova: “Whatever Martinez brings, I’ll be ready. I’m very confident in myself and all of the training we’ve done for this fight.”
