Fabio Wardley's manager accuses Daniel Dubois of 'rabbit punches' and 'MMA rugby tackling' ahead of tonight's heavyweight rematch

Michael Ofo alleges the May bout featured 'a lot leading with the head' that 'has not been talked about enough'. Dubois twice rose from the canvas in the opening three rounds before halting Wardley in the 11th to claim the world title for a second time. Tonight he puts the crown on the line at the O2 in London. Ofo pledges to exert 'a lot of pressure' to counter those tactics.

Wardley makes his ring walk a mere 161 days on from the first loss of his professional career.

Wardley on the quick return: 'The thought is worse than the reality.'

He held the WBO belt for only 173 days before losing it.
