Joseph Parker Returns to the Ring Against Fabio Wardley

  • On October 25 at London's O2 Arena, Fabio Wardley stopped Joseph Parker in the 11th round to win the WBO interim heavyweight title, improving to 20-0-1 with 19 knockouts.
  • The match was billed as a shot at Oleksandr Usyk, with Joseph Parker accepting to preserve his chance after recent comeback wins and former champion status.
  • Judges had Parker ahead through much of the bout, but Wardley's late power shifts in rounds 10 and 11, including a flurry that backed Parker to the ropes, swung momentum.
  • Parker said he 'felt fine' when the fight was stopped and wanted to continue, signalling interest in a rematch as he faces a setback in heavyweight standing.
  • Fans and media immediately disputed the stoppage, while Fabio Wardley said in his post-fight interview, `I believed I'm at the top, I proved I'm at the top`.
