It appears there’s a good probability reigning IBF heavyweight champ Daniel Dubois might make an optionally available protection in his subsequent battle, and fellow Brit Fabio Wardley could be very a lot within the operating to land the battle.
As per quite a few stories, Anthony Joshua’s talks of a right away rematch with Dubois are actually unsure, as February can be too quickly for AJ. Joshua is determined for revenge over the person who knocked him out at Wembley few weeks in the past, based on Eddie Hearn, however talks relating to the rematch for February have hit a standstill.
Now, Dubois has been granted the best to take an optionally available protection earlier than April 22, when his subsequent necessary can be due. And Wardley is, at #12, sufficiently ranked by the IBF to get the shot. If this battle does occur, will probably be a really attention-grabbing battle between two punchers who’re each coming off nasty and spectacular KO wins – Dubois over AJ and Wardley over Frazer Clarke of their rematch, with Wardley scoring that chilling first-round KO, injuring Clarke’s jaw within the course of.
Who wins if Dubois, 22-2(21) and Wardley, 18-0-1(17) do rumble?
In fact, Dubois, if he goes forward and takes an optionally available protection (and Dubois is probably going to take action, seeing how he desires to remain energetic as he waits for an opportunity at whoever wins the large one on December 21, both Oleksandr Usyk or Tyson Fury), might choose somebody aside from Wardley. However there are at present loads of articles specializing in the opportunity of Dubois preventing Wardley in February.
And once more, it could be battle between two guys who can punch and who’ve an thrilling, fan-friendly type. This battle, if it does occur, is not going to go the gap. The truth is, that is a type of heavyweight fights the place a fan can image each males hitting the mat in some unspecified time in the future through the motion.
Is that this potential battle a 50-50 affair? Possibly, or it’s fairly near it. Is Wardley prepared for the highest guys? He says he’s, little doubt about it.
