Fabio Wardley vs. Justis Huni & Pierce O'Leary vs. Liam Dillon - Round by Round.

Blimey. Fair play Wardly. Huni was bossing that. He will be back like the guy hope he does well and earns a few quid.

 

Huni just isn't that good. You need more than the overrated amateur 'pedigree' to be a great professional boxer. Wardley has it and Huni doesn't.

 

Lovely bloke Huni.

 

“He goes down in the tenth.”

 

It’s his chin, he obviously just doesn’t have the chin to go 12 with big punchers. Could argue maybe he lacks power too because he dished out a lot of punishment in there and Wardley still stood standing, although Fabio clearly has a top level chin.

Good boxer but we know that chins are everything in high level boxing.

 

yeh it is a bit wild how happy he is with a loss, might just be that sort of guy, happy for the opportunity! You’d think he’d be fuming he was cruising!

 

Promised him a post fight handy.

 

Get out of jail card for wardley tonight. Was battered pretty much from when i started watching from the 4th round.

Huni a pretty good operator by the looks of it but makes you wonder how good clarke and wardley etc actually are. Was outclassed most of it.

Credit where its due tho the perfect shot at the perfect time. Rematch should be decent reckon frank will maybe try and avoid it.

 

My thoughts exactly.

 

Gutted. What a great performance that was by that Huni. Love that type of heavyweight who can actually box sharp and doesn’t plod, plod, plod! Zzzz. Seems a proper nice lad as well, gracious in defeat.

See the ref didn’t want to give him any chance whatsoever. Couldn’t risk it could he, survive the round and his home fighter had probably lost. As soon as he went down I thought he’s another ****ing Wilder and then Frank says it.

 

That KO punch reminded me of the one Dubois finished AJ with. Both fighters going for a knock out punch, Wardley and Dubois a bit shorter and well timed get to the target first.

 

He's feather-fisted and is chinny. I don't think his skills are anywhere near as good as you were making out, waxing lyrical there as if he was incredible. Let's be honest, Wardley isn't difficult to hit and he was gassed there. He was there for the taking, but it was obvious he was going to put one on Huni who most certainly wouldn't be able to take it. Huni was prancing around there completely overconfident and it was a disaster waiting to happen. He only landed about thirty more punches overall than Wardley who looked terrible in there, so how masterful of a boxer can he be? People were up his arse like they are up Parker for no good reason.

Wardley is a nutter, as I've said, a total madman. He wasn't going to leave there without having put one on Huni.

 

Tick a boo son.

 

Had a long stressful drive back from the lake district today so missed basically all tonight's boxing.

Turned it on literally ten seconds before the KO. Classic Wardley.

 

I don't think his chin is that bad; a fragile fighter is easy to spot, and Huni didn't look fragile. He was happy to stay in punching range of Wardley, and he could absorb Wardley's power just fine when he was defensively switched on. He was just overconfident and presumably thought Wardley was done, and at this level of the HW division if you walk chin first into a full send right hand then pretty much anyone would be in trouble.
