‘The three of us are the next’: Fabio Wardley on Dubois, Itauma and boxing’s heavyweight future

Fabio Wardley is set to defend his WBO world heavyweight title against Daniel Dubois in Manchester on Saturday night, in what is billed as a potential knockout contest between two powerful but vulnerable fighters. Wardley, who previously drew with Frazer Clarke before knocking him out in the rematch, also survived a difficult fight against Justis Huni last June before stopping him late. Dubois enters the bout with three losses in 25 fights, having dispatched most opponents with brutal efficiency.
