Daniel Dubois stops Fabio Wardley in the second round of their rematch to keep his WBO heavyweight title

Dubois floored Ipswich-born Wardley inside 17 seconds at London's O2 Arena, and Wardley was saved only by the bell. His corner threw in the towel in the second round. IBF champion Filip Hrgovic then climbed into the ring and demanded a rematch. Promoter Frank Warren is eyeing the winner of Tyson Fury against Anthony Joshua.

Dubois won the belt from Wardley in May after being knocked down twice in Manchester.

Hrgovic told Dubois: 'He's ready to fight me in March, right Daniel?'

Fury and Joshua are due to meet on December 11 at Cardiff's Principality Stadium.
