    Wardley is a bad man indeed. Has that natural born killer instinct you just can’t teach.

    Think you’re being unfair on Huni but agree to disagree. Huni wasn’t “prancing around”. He was unloading on Wardley switching from body to head and throwing power punches - not his fault he didn’t have the power to end it.

    I think he was prancing around doing that silly little shuffle, overly eager to get in punching range and therefore putting himself at risk for what eventually transpired, when all he had to do was stick a jab out for a few rounds. That's the amateur 'pedigree' we keep hearing about and all the ring smarts they talked about with Huni. Instead of prancing about in range, he should've been prancing around the perimeter of the ring to win a decision.

    He fought the perfect fight but just got caught, it happens.

    Being a nutter and a bad man means absolutely zilch in this game. He was battered and did well to stay in there and landed a great shot, a hopeful shot, the only way the mad man had a chance of winning the fight. The ref couldn’t allow the lad a chance to see if he could recover in case he survived and the nutter lost. Many ‘mad men’ and ‘mutters’ are humbled in real fights.

    Agreed. IMO Wardley needs to hope Dubois can somehow beat Usyk and then he’ll have a puncher’s chance against Daniel.

    I think Warren will try to make a fight with Pulev next though.

    Bad corner work from Huni's team. Feel bad for him but this is boxing. Should have kept doing what he is doing.

    Yes and even Mr Humble himself found this to be true on 1 June 2019.

    The biggest nutter Big John Fury was even humbled outside the ring on youtube in front of the world.

    Terrible corner work. If you can't get rid of a puncher stay away from them

    Nobody said that being a madman is enough, otherwise every nutcase chav walking the streets would be a great boxer. The fact is Wardley has incredible determination and is a true fighter. You're really reaching there with the referee stuff. He'd have been seriously hurt had the referee let that go on.

    Huni will now go on and play the nice guy act like Joey Twelve until he is inevitably poleaxed against and the ship sinks.

    FW showed a lot of heart was getting styled on.

    Huni had it in the bag and got caught flush by a hail Mary punch, FW having that one thing that will always give him a chance 1 punch power.

    Almost a HW version of Colin Jones v Kirkland Laing x2, Huni up on his feet and simply not the power to close the show, it happens well done FW and Huni very gracious in defeat on TV interview.

    Wardley is an accident waiting to happen he's going to get hurt badly when he fights a proper world level operator that can punch he's got no defence at all he's been carefully matched against British level non punchers so far that's over now he's an interim belt holder.
    Imagine him hanging around on the ropes against someone who can punch hard he wouldn't get the chance to land that right hand.
