Wardley vs. Huni: Start Time, Where to Watch, Venue & Full Fight Card

Fabio Wardley takes on undefeated Australian Justis Huni for the WBA Interim heavyweight world title this Saturday evening, June 7 at Portman Road (Ipswich Town FC), streaming LIVE on DAZN at 7:00 p.m. BST / 2:00 p.m. ET / 11:00 a.m. PT.

Fighters Speak Ahead of Saturday’s Clash

Frank Warren (Promoter):
“This is the Golden Age of heavyweight boxing … the winner becomes the No. 1 and mandatory for the WBA title. It doesn’t get any better than that. The winner goes forward and becomes the man when the WBA title is fought for on a mandatory basis. It is big-time boxing in Ipswich. Fabio’s dream is coming true—he’ll have the entire stadium behind him. But he’s facing someone undefeated, with a killer amateur pedigree and a second-round stoppage in his last fight. This is quality boxing.”

Fabio Wardley (Undefeated British Heavyweight):
“It definitely does feel different. All these events in my hometown—walking past places I know—has made this week chill. The chatter about my lack of amateur experience? I’ve heard it all before. I haven’t been defeated yet, and I’ve beaten Olympic medalists and top amateurs. Credit to Huni for thinking he’s the man to end my run. But my power is undeniable—every opponent has hit the canvas. I put in the hard work, and there’s no way I’m losing on my home stage.”

Justis Huni (Undefeated Australian Prospect):
“I’m excited and pumped—we’re two days out. I can’t wait to share the ring with Fabio and give the fight fans a show. My ring IQ and experience will show on fight night. I’ve trained for this, got my game plan, and plan to stick to it. Words don’t matter; it’s what happens in that centre circle.”
