The saying that Fabio Wardley is demanding for a few days is an understatement.
The 30-year-old will face the Wing’s fight with Justis Huni (12-0, 7 KO) in his hometown of Ipswich at the Portman Road stadium on Saturday in a huge fight on the road to potentially becoming the world champion in bulky weight.
A few days later there is a petite thing to become a father.
Asked if he was at all dispersed in the camp with the upcoming birth, Wardley (18-0-1, 17 KO) corresponds to a sarcastically-with a curious smile.
“No. Everything was perfect!
“No, it was a bit feverish, but to be sincere [Wardley’s girlfriend] Really. She was chilled all the time. It is quite good to let me let me in what I had to do.
“You just have to stick blinds and focus on one thing at once. [on] Saturday. After doing this, we can forget about boxing for a minute or two. “
Undoubtedly, this week, the entire Wardley concentration will have to be to prepare for this occasion, and over 20,000 fans expected to support the local heavyweight master.
“It’s definitely a great thing for the city,” said Wardley before the Saturday fight.
“The great thing that is basically Ed Sheeran and a football club here. If these things go away, they are the main sounds. Wearing these two things, it’s quite entertaining.
“Wherever I go … Fill the car or go to stores, someone is like” I have a ticket “or” good luck! ” I went to the sight test and everyone stopped me. I was like “I have to get out of here.”
“It’s okay, it’s really good. Everyone is buzzing and counting on fighting at night.”
Apart from children and fanfars, Wardley must do work on Saturday against a challenging opponent. Huni replaces the original opponent of Jarrell Miller and is a completely different challenge, with good leg work and technical skills.
Wardley comes to fight two bruises with Clarke. The first, something from the epic, ended with a draw. For the second time, Wardley left no room for doubt with the wild destruction of his opponent in the first round.
Now focused on Hunia.
“His amateur album and experience speak for themselves,” says Wardley. “It is probably more qualified and well intricate than Miller. We both enter it with something that can be proven and somewhere.”
