Fabio Wardley v Justis Huni: Final Press Conference

Fabio Wardley v Justis Huni: Final Press Conference

Fabio Wardley and Justis Huni went head to head for the final time on Thursday ahead of their much-anticipated showdown at Portman Road this Saturday — and the Suffolk star made it clear he’s planning to put on a show.

 

In front of a packed room of media and fans, Wardley spoke passionately about what it means to be fighting on home turf, vowing to rise to the occasion and give the Ipswich crowd a night to remember.

 

“This is the one I’ve dreamed about,” Wardley said. “I’ve fought in some big venues, but nothing compares to this. Portman Road is home — and I’m going to show everyone what that means.”

 

The fight, which marks the first-ever professional boxing event to take place at the home of Ipswich Town FC, has attracted national attention. Wardley, the undefeated British heavyweight champion, faces his toughest test yet in Australian Olympian Justis Huni — a rising force in the global heavyweight scene.

 

But if Wardley is feeling the pressure, he certainly didn’t show it.

 

“This is history in the making,” he added. “And history needs something memorable. I’ve prepared for the toughest version of Huni, and I believe my best beats anyone. I’m not just here to win — I’m here to make a statement.”

 

Huni, composed and confident throughout, acknowledged Wardley’s strengths but made it clear he’s come to spoil the party.

 

“I respect Fabio — he’s got power, speed, and a lot of heart,” Huni said. “But I’ve trained for every scenario. I didn’t come all the way to Ipswich to be part of someone else’s celebration. I’m here to win.”

 

The final face-off was tense but respectful, with both fighters offering nods of mutual admiration while radiating the kind of focus that only comes before a major bout.

 

Promoter Frank Warren, who has orchestrated the event under the Queensberry Promotions banner, praised both fighters and the significance of the venue.

 

“This is a landmark moment, not just for Fabio but for British boxing,” Warren said. “To bring a fight of this magnitude to Portman Road — and to see two top-quality heavyweights square off — it doesn’t get much better. This is what the sport is all about.”

 

With thousands of fans expected to fill the stadium on Saturday, the atmosphere promises to be electric. Wardley will be backed by a passionate local crowd hoping to witness another career-defining performance. But Huni brings a reputation for precision, stamina, and ring intelligence — and he’ll be looking to silence the home support early.

 

As the press conference wrapped up, Wardley delivered one final message to his hometown fans.

 

“Get there early. Get loud. And watch me do what I do best.”

 

The stage is set. Suffolk is ready. Wardley v Huni — history awaits at Portman Road.
