Anyone watching?

Hard to see past Wardley. Has Huni beaten anyone of note? Was nearly stopped by Kevin Larena last year, who is no finisher and was boxing outside of his weight class.

I’m going Wardley within the distance.

Most of Huni’s opponents have been soup cans and don’t even have Wikipedia pages :lol: he’s no mug but Wardley will knock him out.

Fab is exciting to watch. Glad he got Huni out of there, who was technically superior.

Superb fight. First couple of rounds quite open and back and forth, then Huni started to exert control.

Wardley was swinging missing and then getting punished and you could see his confidence and energy levels diminishing and he really wasn't throwing punches with any conviction.

One mistake and one punch in the tenth and the fight was turned on its head. Live the camera angle wasn't great and at first I thought it was a stumble, until he struggled to get to his feet and the ref waived it off.

A fairy tale win for Wardley at Portman Road then and a bonus that smug Eddie (Hearn) was so confident he was about to regain a foothold on the heavyweight scene. Complaints about the ref are just nonsense, Huni was not coming back from that.

No mention on the BBC Breakfast Sports bulletin, but the Women’s Rugby League cup final was featured, the world we live in 🤷‍♂️


As for the fight, still not totally sure about Wardley by his own admission he’s still learning on the job, yet he’s an interim World Champion.

Don’t think he’d currently beat either Usyk or Dubois, that said would either of them got up from that punch last night?
