PBC representatives expressed their desire to reschedule the fight as soon as possible once Fundora&#8217;s injury is diagnosed and the recovery time is determined.\n\nThe co-main event between WBC super lightweight champion O&#8217;Shaquie Foster and featherweight champion Stephen Fulton will also be rescheduled. This is the second time the Foster-Fulton matchup has been postponed, as it was initially scheduled for August on a card that included Gervonta Davis vs. Lamont Roach, which ultimately did not materialize.\n\nFundora (23-1-1, 15 KOs) was aiming to fight for the third time in 2025. This year, he achieved knockouts over Tim Tszyu and Chordale Booker, and the fight with Thurman represented a high-profile title defense for &#8220;The Towering Inferno&#8221;.\n\nThurman (36-1, 23 KOs) was seeking gold at super welterweight for the second time. In March 2025, Thurman was forced to withdraw from a WBC title fight against Tszyu due to an injury, being replaced by Fundora, who achieved victory and the title. Thurman, 36 years old, has only fought once since 2022, achieving a technical knockout victory over Brock Jarvis in March 2025.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fundora vs. Thurman: World Title Defense Postponed Due to Injury The expected WBC super welterweight world title defense by Sebastian Fundora against Keith Thurman, scheduled for October 25, has been postponed due to a hand injury sustained by Fundora during training.
