Wardley (19-0-1, 18 KOs) captured the WBA interim crown with a sensational come-from-behind 10th-round knockout win over Justis Huni this past June. Prior to beating Huni, Wardley — who has no amateur background and learned his trade on the white-collar scene — knocked out Frazer Clarke in the opening round of a rematch of their 2024 Fight of the Year contender.
The winner of Parker vs. Wardley will be the mandatory challenger to undisputed heavyweight champion Usyk — and according to Usyk’s adviser Serhii Lapin, the front-runner to be his next opponent.
The Parker vs. Wardley prelims begin at 11 a.m. ET and can be watched here on Uncrowned.

In a battle of interim world champions, WBO interim titleist Joseph Parker faces WBA interim champ Fabio Wardley.
As the WBO doesn’t allow interim unifications and the WBO is first up in the rotation of mandatories for Oleksandr Usyk, only Parker’s championship is up for grabs tonight.
The winner is expected to be the frontrunner to be Oleksandr Usyk’s next opponent.

Just three minutes to go, and I think everyone will be happy when this one’s over.
Uldedaj should be just one round away from winning the IBO title. Lambert has been competitive in the second half and won a few of the rounds, but Uldedaj certainly dominated the first half.
Clean right for the Albanian just after the one-minute mark. Uldedaj scores with a right-hand, left-hook combination. Lambert is forcing Uldedaj around the ring with tippy-tappy punches. Short right from Uldedaj, and he follows up, but Lambert comes straight back. Lambert goes to work on the inside, but nothing is getting through. Nice combination from Uldedaj to complete a dreadful 12 rounds.
10-9 Uldedaj, 117-111 Uldedaj

Hook around the guard from Lambert. More holding as we enter the final 30 seconds. Uldedaj leaps with the left hook, but that may have been another Lambert round.
10-9 Lambert, 97-93 Uldedaj

Nice left-hand, right-hook two-piece gets through for Lambert. Lambert is forcing Uldedaj back for large portions of the round now. This has become a competitive fight, albeit one that lacks action.

The crowd livened up in Round 5 — not because of the action in the ring, but because of a fight in the crowd. Fans paying to watch a night of fights have had to rely on two drunk men in the crowd having a bar brawl to stay entertained.
Into Round 6. Uldedaj comes out southpaw and throws a three-punch combination, with nothing getting through. Left hand from the Albanian is blocked. Right hand over the top from Uldedaj, followed by a left. Lambert is utilizing the Philly Shell defense from the orthodox stance now to keep Uldedaj from landing clean. Both men have switched between stances frequently. Nice left hook from Uldedaj breaks the guard.
10-9 Uldedaj, 60-54 Uldedaj

A three-punch combination from Lambert to open Round 4. He isn’t moving backward voluntarily as much anymore. Could this be a change of tactic? Lambert is looking for the left hand on Uldedaj’s body. The crowd cheered as the Albanian got through with a shot. Right hand partially lands for Uldedaj. The effort from Lambert is short-lived, however, and Uldedaj is forced to go back to chasing Lambert around the ring.
10-9 Uldedaj, 40-36 Uldedaj
Sat, October 25, 2025 at 4:59 PM EDT

Uldedajn lands a heavy right hand on Lambert’s guard. Lambert is only ever throwing punches after Uldedaj unloads on him, as a way of trying to keep the Albanian off of him.
10-9 Uldedaj, 30-27 Uldedaj
Darshan Desai
Right-hand, left-hook thuds onto Labert’s guard. Lambert is throwing “keep off me” jabs. He seems content with just surviving early — maybe he has felt the power? Uldedaj is landing on the guard, but struggling to find anything clean that will truly put a dent in Lambert. Uldedaj drives a right hand straight down the middle, and that seemed to penetrate through Lambert’s defense.
10-9 Uldedaj, 20-18 Uldedaj
Darshan Desai
Just one fight to go before tonight’s highly anticipated heavyweight main event.
Uldedaj immediately forces the pressure on Lambert and opens up with a combination. Chants of “Uldedaj” come from the Albanian fans at The O2. Uldedaj is much bigger than Lambert and had no issues forcing him back, but Lambert’s movement is keeping him safe in the early moments of this one. A nice left hook clipped Lambert in the final minute. Uldedaj is looking for clean shots.
10-9 Uldedaj

We are ready for tonight’s chief support.
