It’s the first professional loss for Wardley (20-1-1, 19 KOs). He was making his first title defense.
“He’s a durable guy... a great warrior,” Dubois said. “It was an honor to be in the ring with him.”
Dubois lost his IBF belt to Oleksandr Usyk via a fifth-round knockout at Wembley Stadium last July. It was his second loss to Usyk.
Dubois could be on a collision course with rising star Moses Itauma, who was ringside. WBO president Gustavo Olivieri has said after Itauma’s demolition of Jermaine Franklin he’ll recommend the British southpaw become the WBO mandatory challenger.
