Tim Tszyu potential rematch with Sebastian Fundora might not happen in Australia as Fundora camp feels Tszyu has shown disrespect. Instead, the rematch is likely to take place overseas possibly in Las Vegas. Fundora promoter Sampson Lewkowicz cited concerns about safety and claimed to have received threats before their last fight. While a rematch clause initially indicated Australia as the venue, Lewkowicz prefers T-Mobile Arena in America aiming for November.

He expressed discomfort with potential mistreatment in Australia and recalled Tszyu pre-fight remarks. Despite this, he commended Tszyu performance and believes Tszyu reputation has soared suggesting he could challenge Terence Crawford. Fundora has agreed to a rematch but if Tszyu prefers not to wait until November other opponents will be considered.
