Wardley’s ambition is clear, and he is not afraid to speak his mind, which has earned him a reputation as one of the most outspoken boxers in the sport.
‘I’m not just going to be a one-belt wonder,’ he added. ‘I want to be a two-belt, three-belt, four-belt champion. I want to be the best that I can be.’
Up next
The 27-year-old will face Dubois on May 13 at the Copper Box Arena in London, live on BT Sport, and he is confident of emerging victorious.
‘I’m going to go out there and I’m going to do what I do best,’ Wardley said. ‘I’m going to win the fight and I’m going to move on to the next challenge.’
