Sebastian Fundora Stops Chordale Booker in Four Rounds to Retain Unified Super Welterweight Titles

Unified WBC and WBO Super Welterweight World Champion Sebastian “The Towering Inferno” Fundora successfully defended his titles with a dominant fourth-round stoppage of top contender Chordale Booker in the main event of PBC Championship Boxing on Prime Video on Saturday night at Michelob ULTRA Arena in Las Vegas.

Fundora’s First Title Defense Ends in Explosive Finish

Standing nearly six feet, six inches, Fundora (22-1-1, 14 KOs) proved once again why he’s one of the most dangerous fighters in the division. Booker (23-2, 11 KOs), ranked WBO No. 5 and WBC No. 14, stepped into the ring determined but was ultimately overwhelmed in his first world title opportunity.

"I've felt ready this whole time since my last fight,” said Fundora, who won the belts with a decision victory over Tim Tszyu in March 2024. “I've worked very hard this past year. Now I've successfully defended my two titles, and the sky's the limit.”

Despite his reputation for relentless aggression, Fundora began the fight methodically, using his reach to control distance. Booker attempted to counter with sharp hooks but was unable to slow Fundora’s momentum. The champion hurt Booker in round three, setting the stage for a brutal finish in the fourth. A vicious left hook followed by two uppercuts sent Booker to the canvas. Though he managed to rise, Fundora swarmed him with an unanswered barrage until referee Thomas Taylor stopped the fight at 2:51 of round four.

Fundora out-landed Booker 79 to 37 in total punches and made it clear that he wants to unify further.

"I'd love to be the undisputed champion like my sister, Gabriela Fundora,” said the champion. “I want the IBF champion Bakhram Murtazaliev, plus Xander Zayas is the WBO mandatory, and I also want Errol Spence Jr. If anyone is willing to unify, let's do it."

Co-Main Event: Jesus Ramos Jr. Stops Guido Schramm in Seven

In the co-main event, rising Mexican star Jesus Ramos Jr. (23-1, 19 KOs) dominated Guido Emmanuel Schramm (16-4-2, 9 KOs) en route to a seventh-round TKO in a super welterweight battle.

Despite hurting his hand in round three, Ramos remained aggressive. By round seven, he had broken Schramm’s nose and trapped him against the ropes with a flurry of power shots, forcing referee Mark Nelson to stop the fight at 1:38 of the round.

"It was hard to get the finish," said Ramos. "He has a lot of heart. Hopefully now I can get the winner of the main event next."

Opening Bout: Elijah Garcia Overcomes Knockdown to Edge Terrell Gausha

Middleweight contender Elijah Garcia (17-1, 13 KOs) survived an early knockdown to win a split decision over veteran Terrell Gausha (24-5-1, 12 KOs) in a gritty 10-round battle.

Gausha dropped Garcia in round one with a clean right hand but was outworked over the remaining rounds. Garcia threw 738 punches to Gausha’s 542, including 123 body shots. Two judges scored it 96-93 and 95-94 for Garcia, while the third had it 95-94 for Gausha.

“People can think what they want,” said Garcia. “I fought my ass off against an Olympian and beat him.”
