Wardley, who spoke at the post-fight interview, gave his thoughts on the bout. He said, “Don’t get me wrong, I felt it, this is the test I needed. Someone to test me, some to put it on me. Someone who’s not going to let me off the hook, and I’ll let you know, I’m here if you want to go. If you want to go toe-to-toe, then that’s what happens to you.”
Therefore, with these comments, the 11-0 boxer sent a warning to the other contenders in the division. The undefeated Brit didn’t have his best fight and still got the knockout without taking much damage.
