There is a rumour about Wardley v Dubois being the next fight.
This would be a huge clash of British heavyweights that would be an exciting fight. Wardley has got better with each performance and has earned the respect of fans by taking on all comers even when he is the underdog. Dubois flattened AJ but got destroyed by Usyk in his last fight so is a big risk for him to take on a dangerous Fabio.
I think Wardley will win as he is faster, fresher, resilient and hits harder.
The current date and venue being preferred by organisers is May 9 with London's O2 Arena and Manchester's Co-op Live Arena in the running.
Should Wardley face Dubois at the iconic London venue, it would be his second consecutive appearance since beating Joseph Parker in that exact venue in October last year.
Previous suggestions made it appear as if a stadium like that of Tottenham Hotspur could be considered, but it is clear a smaller venue is being targeted.
When addressing the possibility of a bout materialising, promoter of both talents Frank Warren insists it is a fight he is willing to make.
"Wardley will fight in early May," he told talkSPORT. "It is probably odds on that he will fight here.
"I'm trying to catch up with George [Warren] who has been across it and in contact with both teams.
"I love that fight, if that can be made I think that is a brilliant fight."

Like this match up.
Hope Wardley can make a statement with a good win here but I wouldn't rule out Dubois winning here. You feel if he loses then it's retirement for him.
Dubois doesn't deserve this crack at a title. He is a quitter.Quote:
