Frank Warren backs the umpire stop at Wardley vs. Huni Fight


Promoter Frank Warren believes there is no problem with halting umpire Justice Huni in the 10th round in the fight against heavyweight candidate Fabio Wardley last Saturday night in the UK.

Warren confirms Huni’s halt

Warren says Huni (12-1, 7 KO) was on his “swaying legs” when he rose from the 10th knockdown, and would have been “spark out” by Wardley (19-0-1, 18 KO) had the fight been allowed to continue by referee John Latham.

“No, I don’t. I think the judge did what he had to do. Box Nation When asked if he thought the count was too fast in the referee’s 10th stop against Honey’s Wardlee.

Judge’s Quick High Count

Fans disagree. They believe that Huni was denied the opportunity to continue his fight with the judge who was excessively fast to stop. Huni was fighting Wardley, the popular British heavyweight.

“He’s with the guy who’s a devastating finisher. You saw it. You saw it. What happened? He was up. He was on his volatile legs. He would have been sparked out if he cut him off again.

Huni’s Stoppage: Was it fair?

Given that he defeated the count, Huni should have been given the benefit of doubt from the judge. If Tyson Fury was allowed to continue the fight for the six-man count in his first battle with Deontay Wilder, Huni would have been given the opportunity to beat the count and continue the fight.

He should have been allowed to continue, not unconscious like Fury. What makes this worse is that Huni is an Australian visiting fighter jet, competing with the British judge and the Britt on British soil. The deck was stacked against him. If Huni was British, that wouldn’t have been such a big deal. So, that would still look bad considering he was happening with a nine-man count against A-side fighter Wardley.

“He beat a man ranked in the top 10,” Warren asked what he learned about Wardlee last Saturday.

Fabio defeated Fringe candidate Huni, but his performance showed he was not in many classes of top 10 fighter jets. Wardlee’s playing style was knocked out by older, slower heavyweights like Martin Bacall and Zhilei Zhang. Wardley had no defense and those guys hit it too hard.

“Don’t get me wrong, I lost some rounds There, it wasn’t the best performance, it wasn’t all of it. but. I won. I knocked him out, so I’m moving on to the next one,” Wardley said. IFL TV About his battle with Huni.

Huni Judges scorecard revealed

As you can see, Wardley downplays how bad he was in the fight, saying he “lost a few rounds” to Honey. At the time of suspension, the judges scored 89-82, 89-82 and 88-83. This means they’ve got ahead of Huni by rounds 9 and 7. It was a complete discrepancy.

This suggests that Wardly lacks technical skills to defeat top-class fighter jets. His only chance of winning is to be lucky by landing a homerun swing with someone who has become as careless as Justice did. With the slow, old-fashioned 30 damage that began to show in his face, Wardley is not young enough to improve his technical skills enough to compete with better heavyweights in the division.

If money is basically everything in Wardley’s career, he may be lucky and be given a title shot against the winner of next month’s Olexandre Usaik vs Daniel Dubois 2 rematch. The WBA required Wardley to compete against “regular” champion Cubrad Pureev for his secondary belt, rather than the WBA “Super” title held by USYK. But perhaps Warren petitions the WBA and he can get a big payday so Wardley can skip the fight for Praf and go straight to the big dog.

Like Derek Chisora, if Wardley can continue for another decade and fight in his 40s, he can become rich. Chisora, a 41-year-old journeyman, is a bottom-fringe-level heavyweight throughout his career and has never won a world title, but his net worth is estimated at $15 million.

Chisora ​​got it by becoming a B-side opponent with 3 Tyson Fury, 2 Vitali Klitschko, 2 Dillian White, 2 Joseph Parker, 2 Cubrat Pylaf, 2 David Hay and David Price. He lost to almost every fighter plane except two, but still earned millions. Wardley can do the same if he has been staying long enough. He can become the next Chisora.
