Bohachuk-Fundora now for WBC superwelter title

The WBC has voted to change the championship status of current WBC super welterweight champion Jermell Charlo to “champion in recess” after analyzing the specific circumstances in the division. Jermell’s last fight was in the super middleweight division and there is no certainty that he will return to fight at super welterweight.

As a result, the WBC has confirmed that the March 30 fight between Serhii Bohachuk and Sebastian Fundora will now be upgraded to full WBC super welterweight championship status.

  • I think all of Charlo’s belts at 154 are open now as it should be. No way he should get to hold up that entire division fighting as infrequently as he does.

    Charles Conwell is ranked #1, I don’t know why he gets passed over and Fundora gets a full title shot in his first fight after being knocked out for the interim title, but I guess I can’t complain too much because Fundora – Bohachuk will be a RIDICULOUS action fight.

    • Agreed. How on earth does #1 Charles Conwell get passed over by both of these guys? He would beat both on the same night!

    • The fight was already set before the belt was stripped. But yeah, Conwell will feel unlucky.

  • Awesome, since that chicken coward snowflake Jermell ducked Tszyu he doesn’t deserve to hold any title.

  • “The WBC has voted to change the championship status of current WBC super welterweight champion Jermell Champion…..”
    – Jermell Champion???

  • This fight can be nothing but full of exciting action.

    I see Fundora as the favorite. I think Bohachuk will have a hard time defending against Fundora’s relentless attacks.

    But Fundora is rather open and Bohachuk has the punch.

    Looking forward to this fight.

  • Any thoughts on the upcoming Tszyu vs Thurman fight ? How does Thurman get a shot as well as keep is No 2 ranking in the WBA after not fighting in over 2 years ?

  • Thanks WBC 4 that opportunity, god bless this 2 Warriors and let the best prepare Win

  • WBC CORRUPTION.The working class get the middle finger from the overpaid fighters and the organisations. Woke entitlement has infected boxer’s today who are protected soy boy’s. Pathetic
