Dubois and Wardley at career-heaviest for rematch

Britons Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley both weigh in at their career-heaviest for Saturday's heavyweight world-title rematch in London.

WBO champion Dubois tipped the scales at 18st 2lb (115kg) while Wardley came in at 17st 10lb (112kg) before their meeting at the O2 Arena.

The British rivals produced a fight-of-the-year contender in Manchester in May, with Wardley flooring Dubois twice before the Londoner rallied to stop his bloodied and battered opponent in the 11th round.

"I draw confidence from the successes I had in the first fight - getting knockdowns in the first and third," Wardley, 31, said.

"I need to capitalise on those moments better. I'm ready to put on a cleaner performance."

Dubois, 29, is more than 2lb heavier for the rematch, while Wardley has added more than 6lb.

Asked for his prediction, Wardley added: "Revenge, Fabio Wardley, knockout win."
