Ermal Hadribeaj promised a hard fight. Both sounded ready during Thursday’s virtual press conference, but the first media push for their October 17 title fight gave casual fans little reason to stop scrolling. That is a problem for a card whose main event already needs an introduction.

Fundora said he intends to extend his three-fight knockout streak. Hadribeaj spoke about the work that earned him a shot at the WBC super welterweight title and what becoming Albania’s first world champion would mean to him. Those stakes are real. Neither man, though, gave the press conference a line that made the matchup feel urgent.

“We’re only focused on this fight. We know that we can’t overlook anyone. We focus on the work and take it one fight at a time,” Fundora said during Thursday’s virtual press conference.
