Thurman's final stand? Bradley predicts a brutal Fundora Co


Keith 'Once A Time' Thurman can head to “Brutal knockout” In its challenge for the Junior Champion title with WBC SEBASTIAN FUNDORA on October 25th.

Age is not just a number here

Boxing analyst Tim Bradley sees a terrible result for the 36-year-old former WBA and WBO heavyweight champion “Once Upon a Time” (31-1, 23 CO) in his headlifter against the younger 27-year-old Fundar (23-1-1, 15 CO).

If the boxing was working properly, Thurman would have to win the title, a shot against Fundora from Performing this little glove Against these three fighters:

  • Vergil Ortiz Jr.
  • Yaron Ennis
  • Israil Madimov

If Thurman comes through these matches in one piece, he will receive a world title launched against Fundora. In reality, it doesn't look good for Keith.

Tim said he studied the recent struggle to return Thurman against Brock Jarvis on March 12, 2025 and his loss from then 40-year-old Mani Pakiao on July 20, 2019. He sees a probable victory for Thurman, except to get a happy knockout. The chances of this happen are thin.

Bradley's breakdown: “He doesn't beat Fundora”

“Fundora could even kill him. I watched Thurman's battle with 40-year-old Pakiao (2019). Turman was in his peak and he couldn't be a 40-year-old Paciao,” Tim Bradley told his channelS “He doesn't beat a young Fundora.

Thurman has been too inactive in the last eight years of his fight against Danny Garcia on March 4, 2017. He fought only three times after the fight against these fighters:

  • Brock Jarvis: March 12, 2025
  • Mario Barios: February 5, 2022,
  • Mani Pakiao: July 20, 2019
  • Joseso Lopez: January 26, 2019

Fundora-Thurman will fight in the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. The event will be shown on PBC on Prime Video Payment for viewing for $ 74,99. This is not cheap for a battle for which there is no demand and is not interested in.

The younger fighters do not know who the Thurman is, except for a long-time fighter who has been interviewed from time to time on YouTube. Many older fans who know “once” have lost interest in him for a long time, tired of waiting for him to return.

“With this speed of work from the Fundora. That's all that was with Pakiao. You stepped back with your hands. You can't do it with the Fundora. It's a different Merman now. A little more mature,” Bradley said.

There is no prayer for “one time”

The disadvantages in the game of Thurman are not the reason why he has a very little chance of winning. This is the boiling of this witch:

  1. Age
  2. Favored
  3. Inaction
  4. Fight beyond its natural weight
  5. Inexperience at 154
  6. Never is so good in the first place

If you look at all of these, he comes out to the old “one time” Therman who has no prayer. He goes to an almost valuable loss and the only thing that makes him interesting is whether he will be removed on his feet or a flat on his back.
