On May 9 in Manchester, WBO world heavyweight champion British Fabio Wardley will face compatriot Daniel Dubois. The fight is officially announced and will be held under the slogan 'Don’t Blink', emphasizing the expected power and speed of events in the ring.
'I am the champion, and I chose Dubois for the mandatory defense. I fear no one and am ready to fight any opponent. Dubois and I guarantee you fireworks,' Wardley stated, expressing complete confidence in his choice and the spectacle of the upcoming confrontation.
According to Wardley, the clash promises to be extremely intense from the very start: 'It will be a big fight from the very first round.' Both boxers are known for their knockout power, and fans are expecting just such a development.
The WBO title was awarded to Fabio Wardley without a fight at the end of last year. Oleksandr Usyk refused to defend the belt against the Briton, after which the organization declared the title vacant, and Wardley was elevated to the status of full champion.
