What has been said between Fabio Wardley and Justis Huni?
The first fight week event saw Fabio Wardley and Justis Huni meet in the final press conference.
Proceedings were civil between the pair, but Huni was adamant that he had a better overall boxing ability compared to his British foe.
“I’ve still got the same opinion. Two days from now we will be able to showcase it and show everyone what I am all about. We’re here in fight week and it is exciting for me," Huni said.
“My ring IQ, my experience in the ring, knowing where I am at all times. It will show on fight night. I’ve done all the training that I’ve needed to do and I am ready to go."
Wardley meanwhile stayed calm and reiterated that despite his lack of amateur experience, he will not be letting this opportunity to impress in this homecoming slip.
“Credit to Justis Huni for thinking he is the man to do that. The most obvious thing to say is I have the power and that is undeniable when you see my fights and all of my opponents have touched the canvas."
“I didn’t get the amateur experience when I was younger, but I have done the hard work and the hard yards since I got into boxing. One of the first things I realised was I had things to make up in the sport. I did that, got my head down and grafted.
“There is no way this is being taken away from me now. Not in my hometown, not on my home stage.”
