Boxing fans, mark your calendars—Saturday, May 9 is shaping up to be a massive night for the heavyweight division. Fabio Wardley puts his WBO title on the line against former champion Daniel Dubois at Co-Op Live in Manchester, and if you love knockouts, this is a can't-miss event. Both men pack devastating power: Wardley boasts 19 KOs in 20 wins, while Dubois has 21 stoppages in 22 victories. Expect fireworks from the opening bell.
The main event is just the headliner on a stacked Queensberry Promotions card dubbed "Don't Blink." Undefeated Uzbek heavyweight Bakhodir Jalolov—who recently called out KO sensation Moses Itauma—faces Agron Smakici in a bout that could shake up the division. David Morrell also steps in against Zak Chelli in a catchweight showdown, adding even more intrigue to an already deep lineup.
Here's how to catch all the action. The main card kicks off at 6 p.m. BST (1 p.m. ET / 10 a.m. PT) from Co-Op Live Arena. Ring walks for the main event are expected between 10 and 11 p.m. UK time, which translates to roughly 5–6 p.m. ET and 2–3 p.m. PT for U.S. viewers. Keep in mind undercard pacing can shift things—so if you want the full build, tune in early. The event airs on DAZN PPV, with pricing similar to recent blockbuster cards like Naoya Inoue vs. Junto Nakatani.
