Who is Fabio Wardley?<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old Brit has an impressive professional record having yet to lose in 20 fights. Most recently he knocked out Aussie Justis Huni to claim the vacant WBA interim heavyweight title – a fight that was originally set to be against American veteran Jarrell Miller before he withdrew. <\/p>\n

Huni was on top on the scorecard against Wardley before the Brit knocked him out in the 10th round.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s one of the nicest guys you could meet in boxing \u2013 as is Joe Parker, by the way. They\u2019re both lovely fellas,\u201d says promoter Frank Warren said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut Fabio, you\u2019ve got to take your hat off to him. No amateur background, gone out there and done it the hard way and beaten good fighters. He\u2019s as tough as old boots. He\u2019s a fighting man. Nothing fazes him, and he really does believe he\u2019s going to win this fight. He believes in himself.\u201d<\/p>\n
