I wanna know what Mike from Derby thought of R1. We haven’t heard from him for 30 seconds.

Daniel has got to watch what he's doing and get behind his jab.

The fight wasn't even 20 seconds old and it all happened. We didn't oversell this fight, we undersold it!

There's a look of panic on Dubois face, he's going to keep walking on to a right hand if he's not careful.
Wardley has gone a bit mad at the minute. He had a lot of success at the start of the round but he needs to find something else. Fabio had too much success with that right hand. He's throwing it willy-nilly.

It’s clear both fighters have knockout power. Surely the winner will be the fighter who is best at avoiding these punches. So who will that be?

No doubting who the crowd-favourite here is. Huge ovation for Fabio Wardley who is soaking it all up. The difference in body language is so clear. Daniel Dubois is bouncing on the spot with a grimace.

"Ohhhhh Fabio Wardley" rings around the Co-op Live.
Safe to say the fans are with the champion tonight.

As Fury said "To be the man, you have to beat the man". Neither has and one of them got KO'd twice by the man.

We have to give massive credit to both Fabio Wardley and Daniel Dubois for making this happen. This is a voluntary first defence for Wardley, who could have easily picked a much softer ranked opponent. Similarly, Dubois could have taken a few confidence builders after his loss to Oleksandr Usyk. We are always quick to moan when the big fights aren't made, so both men deserve a lot of respect for taking the hard road tonight.
