Dubois to Defend WBO Heavyweight Title Against Wardley in London Rematch
Daniel Dubois will defend his WBO heavyweight title against Fabio Wardley in a rematch at the O2 Arena in London on Saturday. This follows their intense first fight five months ago, where Dubois overcame two knockdowns to stop Wardley in the 11th round, marking Dubois' rise to a two-time world champion.
Wardley, who suffered his first professional defeat in that bout, activated his rematch clause. The fight is set to begin with ringwalks expected after 22:30 BST. The event will also feature several undercard fights, including Louie O'Doherty versus Michael Gomez Jr. for the British and Commonwealth lightweight title.
Dubois boasts a record of 23 wins from 26 fights, with 22 knockouts, while Wardley has 20 wins, one loss, and one draw, with 19 knockouts. The stakes are high as Dubois aims to successfully defend his title for the first time, while Wardley seeks to reclaim the championship and avenge his previous loss.
