Fabio Wardley has called for Daniel Dubois to make it “a firefight” straightaway when they box for his WBO heavyweight world title next month.
Wardley puts his championship on the line against former world titlist Dubois in Manchester.
Dubois is known for his tremendous punching power. He was the last man to beat Anthony Joshua, knocking out the heavyweight star when they clashed at Wembley Stadium in 2024.
Since then Dubois lost the IBF title to Oleksandr Usyk but will be looking to become a two-time champion when he fights WBO boss Wardley on May 9.
Wardley is a finisher himself, notably when stopping Justis Huni late on and Frazer Clarke early in their rematch. He beat Joseph Parker last year too and is now the WBO heavyweight world champion.
He intends to take the fight to Dubois from the first bell. “We have all the intention as a team of getting straight in there and getting straight stuck in, getting into his face and making it a fight, making it a firefight,” Wardley told Sky Sports News.
“Just letting the guns go and seeing what lands. Because there’s no need to be hanging around. There’s no need to box and move and jab in this scenario. We’re two big guys that at any second can change the course, turn the fight on its head, whichever way around you want to call it.
“I’m not looking to waste any time and I’m hoping that Daniel’s not either.”
