Wardley, Miller Set for WBA Interim Title Bout

Fabio Wardley, the undefeated British heavyweight, is set to face American contender Jarrell Miller for the WBA Interim heavyweight title at Ipswich Town's Portman Road on June 7. This fight marks a homecoming for Wardley, a lifelong fan of Ipswich Town, and is part of a four-man box-off tournament ordered by the WBA. The encounter promises excitement as Wardley aims to showcase his power and maintain his unbeaten record, while Miller, known as 'Big Baby', seeks to reestablish his reputation after a recent draw and loss. Tensions flared during a press conference when Miller accused Wardley of being behind a derogatory rap song, leading to a physical altercation that Wardley chose to avoid further by declining a face-to-face interview. The bout is part of Queensberry Promotions' partnership with DAZN, and a victory for either fighter could lead to a shot at the WBA 'regular' championship currently held by Kubrat Pulev. Both fighters have expressed determination to provide an entertaining and memorable event for the audience.
