Fabio Wardley Defeats Joseph Parker
Fabio Wardley achieved the biggest win of his career by stopping Joseph Parker, setting himself up for a world title shot against Oleksandr Usyk.
In a thrilling contest at the O2 Arena, Wardley demonstrated his toughness by withstanding several significant punches from Parker before forcing the referee to stop the bout in the 11th round.
Parker had promised to be a "different level" to the 30-year-old Wardley.
The WBO had ordered Parker to face undisputed world heavyweight champion Usyk in July, but Parker put his mandatory challenger status on the line against Wardley, who was still involved in white-collar boxing when Parker was world champion in 2016.
Author's summary: Wardley wins against Parker, setting up Usyk clash.
