Fabio Wardley is an odds-on favourite to win at Portman Road next Saturday - while Australia's Justis Huni is a 3/1 underdog according to Sky Bet
We are less than a week out from a blockbuster heavyweight clash at Portman Road, as British, Commonwealth, and WBA Continental champion Fabio Wardley goes head-to-head with Australia's Justis Huni. Wardley proved he was the real deal in his highly-anticipated rematch with Frazer Clarke in October of last year, with the Ipswich native dominating his domestic rival en route to a first round knockout. As a result of his win, it was announced that Wardley would face a big-name heavyweight in Jarrell 'Big Baby' Miller, however the latter was forced to withdraw from the fight following a shoulder injury. Huni was then announced as Miller's replacement, and the undefeated Aussie will be looking to cause a major upset in enemy territory next Saturday and put himself firmly in the mix for a future world title shot. Huni isn't tipped to do so however, with the talented Brisbane prospect a 3/1 outsider according to Sky Bet. Conversely, Wardley is an odds-on favourite at 1/4, while a draw is the widest in the market at 16/1.
