In the evening, on October 25, a big evening of boxing was held at the “O2 Arena” in London. The main event was a fight in the heavyweight division – former world champion Joseph Parker and British boxer Fabio Wordley met in the ring. Wardley won by technical knockout in the 11th round.
After the fight, Fabio felt incredible elation. The Briton thanked his opponent, saying that his victory sounds like a dream:
“It sounds like a dream, but it’s real life. I am a testament to hard work, passion and never giving up. What I lack in experience, I make up for in chin, heart and fight.
I’m not discrediting Joe, but I wasn’t in pain. I put my feet in ridiculous positions, but I didn’t get knocked down. I’ve said before that I’m not the cleanest fighter, but I’m doing my job,” Wordley said.
After the incredible victory, Fabio turned to Oleksandr Usyk. It was the Briton who became the mandatory contender for the belts of the Ukrainian champion.
