Just as the thoughts heightened over what would happen in a Sebastian Fundora-Jaron “Boots” Ennis undisputed junior-middleweight title fight next year, the promoter stepped in and poured ice water to calm the exhilaration.
Promoter Sampson Lewkowicz stated that negotiations for a potential bout between Sebastian Fundora and Jaron 'Boots' Ennis must begin with an even 50-50 purse split. Speaking after Fundora's recent victory in Las Vegas, Lewkowicz emphasized that both fighters need each other and deserve equal financial terms, irrespective of Ennis' undefeated record or title collection.
Lewkowicz also noted he plans to propose restrictions requiring minimal facial hair during the fight, alleging that beards offer a defensive advantage. The comments followed Fundora's 12th-round knockout victory over Ermal Hadribeaj, where referee Thomas Taylor stopped the fight in the final seconds.
