These words, coming from such a valued name in boxing, are a sturdy representation for Huni – a warrior who has not yet understood the real level.

The comparison with Kabayel is compelling, with the form in which the German is located. Especially after receiving the victory of the statement on May 18th 2024 against Frank Sanchez.

Kabayel was seen as establishing a bet against Sanchez, but something that Huni would want to imitate in Ipswich.

Both men move sideways and do not rely under the final fight, despite the shots in their arsenal.

“JPH” Huni detained seven of twelve professional opponents, so it is possible to stop.

However, for Wardley he will want to continue his amazing boxing history. In the rematch he leaves the destructive victory over the Clarke phrase.

Huni had a completely different entry into boxing, rising through amateurs with many discretion, for example, being a country champion.

The Australian is still relatively unknown in Great Britain and will want to make a statement that he sends shock waves through the heavyweight division on Saturday evening.

The question about the weekend is whether Wardley can continue his unexpected growth of this sport, or whether Huni’s experience and foundation will catch him on a home pitch.
