At Portman Road, Ipswich on June 7, Justis Huni vs Fabio Wardley will headline a Queensberry Promotions card in association with Matchroom Boxing, Tasman Fighters and Goldstar. They will top an impressive undercard that will be shown live on DAZN worldwide. Both fighters and their respective teams have met at a launch press conference for the fight, where Huni issued a stern warning to Wardley ahead of fight night.
June 7 should provide plenty of fireworks. Wardley (18-0-1, 17 KOs) is a precise and heavy puncher who showed his devastating power against Frazer Clarke. Huni (12-0, 7 KOs) was an impressive amateur and has taken well to the professional ranks. He moves well and picks his punches smartly, but this is a big step up – Wardley has operated at a higher level.
Speaking at the press conference, Huni was full of intent: “This is my coming out party, to show the world who I am. What better way to do it? On a massive stage like this in Fabio’s home town. I am coming here to bring an upset and I just can’t wait to get in there now and put on a show for all of the fight fans and everyone who will be tuning in.
“I think the only thing he has over me is the power, but every other box I tick. Footwork, speed, putting my punches together in bunches. I believe I tick all the other boxes and I cannot wait to get it on.
“It is going to be a sweeter victory with them thinking they are going to get over me that easy. It is going to be a lot tougher night in that office come June 7,” added a confident Huni.
