Fabio Wardley vs Justis Huni start time, undercard and how to watch fight
Fabio Wardley and Justis Huni look to reach heavyweight boxing's top table this weekend, when they clash over the interim WBA title.
Wardley was initially due to fight the controversial Jarrell Miller, but the American withdrew while citing injury, leading Australia's Huni to step in.
Huni, 26, and Wardley, 30, will each aim to stay unbeaten when they square off at Portman Road, home to Wardley's beloved Ipswich Town FC. Wardley will also aim to maintain his stunning knockout record of 17 stoppages from 18 wins and 19 fights.
Last time out, Wardley (18-0-1) left no doubt in his rematch with Frazer Clarke, brutally knocking out his fellow Briton in the first round in October after their epic draw earlier in 2024. Meanwhile, Huni (12-0, 7 KOs) is on a streak of three straight stoppage wins.
Here's all you need to know.

EXCLUSIVE Finally got her happy ending! Former Bachelor star Brittany Hockley marries Swiss footballer Ben Siegrist in Bali - and wears a VERY dramatic wedding gown
Former Bachelor star Brittany Hockley has married her Swiss footballer fiancé Ben Siegrist. The couple tied the knot during a romantic ceremony in Bali on Wednesday. The 37-year-old was ever the blushing bride on her big day, walking down the aisle in a strapless dress featuring a lace corset with dramatic long train. The Life Uncut podcast announced her engagement to Ben, 33, last year. Brittany, who formerly described herself as 'the perpetually single host', had been dating Ben long-distance for eight months when he popped the question. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Brittany Hockley (@brittany_hockley) In her post, Brittany expressed her love for her new fiancé, writing: 'In any lifetime it's a YES! Just two people loving each other for the rest of our lives.' Brittany went Instagram official with Swiss goalkeeper Benjamin in January last year. The duo met in November 2022 on the celebrity dating app Raya. At the time the goalkeeper's soccer team, the Glasgow-based Celtic FC, was playing in Australia against Sydney FC. Speaking to Daily Mail Australia at the ACRA awards in October, the radio presenter said she has set a date and is currently in the process of planning their big day. 'I'm getting married next year. I'm not telling too many secrets yet. Mitch [Churi] is of course going to be there,' Brittany began as she led the red carpet arrivals with her former KIIS FM Pickup co-host. 'Mitch actually has a starring role in the wedding.' 'Am I ring bearer?' Mitch asked her. 'Actually I'd be so pi***d off if I was just ring bearer,' he joked when asked if he'd be up for MC'ing. The Bali nuptials come after Brittany's wedding guest list raised many eyebrows. While the couple's engagement been the talk of the town for months, the notable absences from the wedding invitations caught attention. Sources close to the couple reveal that several of Brittany's fellow I'm A Celebrity 2024 'campmates' including Skye Wheatley, Callum Hole, and Denise Drysdale did not make the cut. Despite the show's portrayal of a tight-knit group, insiders suggest that behind the scenes, not all relationships were as harmonious. 'The show presents a united front, but the reality is, not everyone clicked,' a source revealed. 'Brittany has chosen to keep her wedding intimate, inviting those she's closest to,' the insider said. Adding to the intrigue, Brittany recently shared a lighthearted anecdote about her wedding invitations causing confusion among guests due to Aussie slang. On her Life Uncut podcast, she recounted how the phrase 'no thongs' led to some hilarious misunderstandings among international invitees. As the big day approaches, all eyes will be on the guest list and the potential for any surprise appearances or notable absences.
