'Highly unlikely the fight will last long' - Wardley v Dubois, who wins?
Daniel Dubois would not to be drawn into a war of words after weighing in at a career-heavy 18st (115kg) for Saturday's all-British heavyweight world-title fight against Fabio Wardley.
Wardley, who came in at 17st 4lb (110kg), will make the first defence of his WBO title at Manchester's Co-op Live in a mouthwatering contest between two dangerous knockout artists.
The pair weighed in at the Bowlers Exhibition Centre before coming face-to-face in what organisers branded 'The Cauldron' - a circular, illuminated stage designed to intensify one final staredown in front of a live audience.
"I'm going to put him to sleep tomorrow," said Dubois, 28, although - as he has throughout fight week - offered little beyond brief answers.
