Daniel Dubois will defend his WBO world heavyweight title in a rematch with Fabio Wardley on Saturday, October 17, at London's O2 Arena. The pair first met in May at Manchester's Co-op Live, where Dubois recovered from early knockdowns to stop a bloodied Wardley in the eleventh round.
When is Dubois vs Wardley 2?
The main fight card is due to get underway at 7pm, with ringwalks for Dubois and Wardley expected around 10.30pm. The bout marks the second meeting between the British heavyweights this year.
Dubois (23-3, 22 KOs) was knocked down in both the first and third rounds of the first fight, but bounced back to catch Wardley (20-1, 19 KOs) with a jab in the eleventh. The stoppage inflicted the first defeat of Wardley's professional career.
