O2 Arena, London, UK. In the heavyweight limit (over 90.7 kg), local slugger Fabio Wardley (14-0, 13 KOs) has timed the most late replacement in the person of his compatriot
Chris Healy (9-10, 2 KOs). It’s a shame, because a strong gatekeeper from Nigeria should have boxed with him
Kigsley Ibe (7-2-1, 6 KOs).
The paunchy left-handed underdog picked up in the opening round of blows to his huge body. In an attempt to answer the aggressor, he yawned towards the right. Then he missed the side in the jaw near the ropes and took the knee.

At the beginning of the 2nd three-minute period, Healy was on the floor again – he missed two uppercuts in a row, and then he flew in when he took his knee. Puzan was ready to continue the fight, but the referee decided otherwise.

Wordley TKO 2.
This guy is famous for being a sparring partner for the best fighters in the division – Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua.
Heavyweight prospect (over 90.7 kg) Briton Solomon Decres (4-0, 1 KO) scored a victory over
Kevin Nicholas Espindola (7-5, 2 KOs) from Argentina.
The fight went the whole distance, but was not competitive. The referee gave all the rounds to the favorite.
Decres PTS 8.
Espindola is a guy who just recently completed all rounds with two-time Olympic medalist from Kazakhstan Ivan Dychko.
It’s a shame, but middleweight prospect (up to 72.6 kg) Briton Felix Cash (15-0, 10 KOs) will not be able to fight for the vacant WBA International belt today with American Vaughn Alexander (17-6-1, 10 KOs), as got sick.
