The towering Fundora will defend his interim WBC junior middleweight title on Saturday night

At 6-foot-6, Sebastian Fundora would stand taller than many boxers in the heavyweight division. Fundora is no heavyweight, however -- he's the current WBC interim junior middleweight champion and will put that belt on the line against Carlos Ocampo on Saturday night (Showtime, 10 p.m. ET). Sebastian Fundora (c) -800 Carlos Ocampo +550 Interim WBC junior middleweight title Carlos Adames -500 Juan Macias Montiel +380 Vacant interim WBC middleweight title Fernando Martinez (c) -280 Jerwin Ancajas +230 IBF super flyweight title

Despite towering over other men in the 154-pound division, Fundora (19-0-1, 13 KO) rarely uses his 80-inch reach in the way boxing traditionalists may expect. That is to say: Fundora is not much of a jabber. In fact, despite a 6-inch reach advantage over 5-foot-9 Erickson Lubin in his most recent fight, Fundora landed fewer jabs than he ate. Fundora defeated Lubin after Lubin's corner stopped the fight following nine rounds of thrilling action that saw both fighters hit the canvas.

The Lubin fight was a near-perfect encapsulation of what makes Fundora such a compelling fighter. He has turned his height into a tool in a wild inside-brawling style with his long arms throwing uppercuts and hooks from unique angles. To employ that style, Fundora has also needed to showcase a chin able to hold up to that style of brawling over technique.
