Jesus when Wardley misses.

[Ruthless-RKO]

No point scoring. Probably be over in few rounds

[Ruthless-RKO]

Wardley showing great chin.

Just swinging

[gilgamesh]

Dubois really kicked his ass in the 4th. DDD's round all the way there.

39-35 Wardley

[Ruthless-RKO]

Dubois a much better boxer here.

Dropped rounds though.

[Kilburn]

Eff me Fabio soaked up a couple of peaches there on his chin.

[jameswilson]

Wardley breathing a bit and also dabbing at his eye a lot in that last round.

I think he’s struggling to breath with the cut on his tongue.

[Delta Jay]

Fabio looks like a white collar fighter here

[Ruthless-RKO]

Re: WBO Light Heavyweight Division

In light of David Morrell’s TKO loss vs Zak Chelli, the WBO Championship Committee will convene next week to determine the appropriate course of action regarding Callum Smith’s mandatory status. Congrats to Chelli.

Given the circumstances, the Interim Championship status MUST be terminated as soon as possible in order to maintain one sole recognized WBO World Champion in the division. #BeltsMatter @WorldBoxingOrg @EddieHearn @MatchroomBoxing @CallumSmith23 @SIChrisMannix @BS @ChavaESPN @ESPNKnockOut @pugboxing @SteveKim323 @Idecboxing @julianisjulius @JakeNDaBox @alaveraok @LoMejorDelBoxeo @NotiFight @IFLTV @DAZNBoxing @DanRafael1

Big key here is Dubois is winning the jab exchanges.

In so many fights that is half the battle.

I also wonder if Wardley has done something to his ankle.

Now gum shield out. I think it’s down to Wardley gasping for air.

[Flump]

Intriguing. What we want to see

[gilgamesh]

Dubois dominating the 5th round as well. Wardley is gonna need to slow down, and regroup for a few rounds, he may need to be content to lose the next few rounds, while just throwing light punches and jabs to get his wind back, but that may not be an option in a slugfest like this.

It's a life and death struggle every round.

[Flump]

Intriguing. What we want to see

[Ruthless-RKO]

Has Wardley ever been dropped?

[Ruthless-RKO]

He’s finished!!!

[Ruthless-RKO]

Foster???

Where’s the stoppage!!!!

[Ruthless-RKO]

Ropes helped him a little.

He was still swinging though haha

[jameswilson]

Wardley now a bloody mess.

[Evander]

What a good fight

[gilgamesh]

Dubois has undoubtedly fought his way back into this fight. 3 rounds in a row, and it could be even if you scored that 2nd round for him which it wouldn't be unreasonable to do.

What a finish to that 6th round! My God! Everything we could've hoped for already!

57-55 Wardley for me. Could be all even after 6. Doesn't matter. This can't make it to the finish.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Wardley being rightfully exposed.

[Evander]

What a good fight

[Ruthless-RKO]

Jab has been key for Dubois.

[Ruthless-RKO]

His nose is fũcked!!!

[Ruthless-RKO]

Could a towel come in?
