Daniel Dubois destroys Fabio Wardley via 2nd-round knockout in highly anticipated rematch - MMA Fighting
Daniel Dubois made sure there was little room for drama in his second fight with Fabio Wardley. It took Dubois less than two rounds to score a definitive knockout victory over Wardley on Saturday in London, five months after their epic first encounter that ended with Dubois winning a war of attrition in which Dubois had to battle back from adversity after being knocked down twice. It took Dubois until the 11th round to turn things around and win their first fight, but this time Dubois beat Wardley to the punch and he never recovered. The rematch was officially stopped at the 2:21 mark of Round 2 after Wardley’s corner threw in the towel. With the win, Dubois successfully defended the WBO heavyweight title he won from Wardley, and improved his pro record to 24-3 with 23 victories by KO/TKO. In his post-fight interview, Dubois praised Wardley, calling him “a great warrior,” before adding, “it is my time and my era.”There’s no question this was Dubois’ night as he pounced on Wardley early, landing a jab and then following with a heavy right hand that took Wardley’s legs out from under him.
