In a dramatic turnaround from their first encounter, Daniel Dubois knocked down Anthony Wardley just seconds into their rematch, delivering a powerful right hand that initiated a ferocious onslaught, reports BritPanorama.
The opening round was heavily one-sided, with Wardley under relentless pressure and ending up against the ropes, prompting his trainer, Davison, to prepare to intervene.
Wardley, recalling the severe punishment he endured in their previous bout in May, found himself absorbing more hits in the second round, with his lack of response leading to an intervention from his team, Gray and Davison.
Despite the significant damage sustained in the initial fight, including a severely bloodied nose, Wardley was quick to invoke the rematch clause, seeking redemption.
