Overview
- The WBC super-welterweight rematch between Tim Tszyu and champion Sebastian Fundora is set for Saturday at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
- Tszyu’s camp has kept long-time trainer Igor Goloubev, strength coach Dave Barker and cut specialist Mark Gambin, with leading ringside doctor Bill Anseline rejoining the team.
- Positioning drills and altered footwork are being emphasized to prevent leg clashes that led to last year’s debilitating head cut.
- The Australian contender is aiming to become a two-time world champion to surpass his father Kostya’s legacy.
- A built-in rematch clause offers the prospect of a trilogy showdown in Australia if Tszyu prevails.
