Both Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley weighed in at a career heaviest for their WBO heavyweight championship rematch.

London's Dubois had scaled a career heaviest for their first fight and he topped that at 253.9lbs for Saturday's rematch while Wardley was 248.3lbs.

Dubois said that means they're both going for power in this fight. "I'm ready to go, ready for my job," he told Sky Sports. "I'll break him down, break him down. Like last time, but better this time."

The Londoner halted Wardley in a frenetic first fight in May but the former champion excised the rematch clause in his contract in a bid to win back his title.

Wardley is fully expecting the same type of battle. "Knowing it's going to be a hard, hard fight is what gees me up, what keeps me going," he told Sky Sports.
