Wardley Retains Title Against Dubois in UK Showdown
On May 9, Fabio Wardley is set to put his world heavyweight title on the line for the first time, facing off against fellow Briton Daniel Dubois in Manchester.
With a combined total of 40 knockout victories, Fabio Wardley and Daniel Dubois are set to face off in a highly anticipated matchup, bringing their formidable punching power to the ring.
On Saturday, 9 May, Manchester will play host to an all-British showdown as Fabio Wardley makes his inaugural title defence against Daniel Dubois, marking a significant moment in the world of heavyweight boxing.
Wardley's reign as WBO champion began in November after Oleksandr Usyk opted to relinquish the title rather than face the Ipswich native in a mandatory defence, paving the way for Wardley to claim the championship at the age of 31.
As a former IBF titleholder, Daniel Dubois is no stranger to the upper echelons of the sport, and his upcoming bout against Wardley at the Co-Op Live Arena promises to be an explosive encounter between two fighters known for their ability to deliver devastating blows.
With a professional record of 21 fights and 20 wins, including 19 knockouts, Wardley has asserted his commitment to competing in high-stakes matchups, stating, "I've never been in this game to play around, I'm committed to big fights only."
Wardley emphasized his willingness to take on challenging opponents, saying, "I'm the champion, this is a voluntary defence, and I chose this – I've never shied away from a challenge."
The champion expressed confidence in his abilities, saying, "I've always gone looking for the biggest tests, and I'd back myself against anyone in this division."
Wardley believes the upcoming fight against Dubois is one of the most significant in the heavyweight division, noting, "This is one of the biggest fights that can be made right now, and the best part is, it doesn't need any extra hype – this fight sells itself."
Daniel Dubois, 28, has a notable record, having stopped Anthony Joshua in September 2024, although his IBF title reign was ultimately ended by Oleksandr Usyk in July 2025, marking his second defeat at the hands of the Ukrainian boxer.
According to promoter Frank Warren, the Wardley-Dubois matchup represents "another piece of British heavyweight history being made", highlighting the significance of this all-British encounter.
Warren praised the decision to stage this fight, saying, "This is the most exciting and explosive fight available for Fabio's first title defence, and it's a testament to his character that he demanded this matchup."
Warren also commended Dubois, saying, "For Daniel to be attempting to become a two-time world champion at just 28 is remarkable – this will be his sixth world title fight, and only Oleksandr Usyk has been able to defeat him in that run."
