Don’t let Hearn vs White distract you – Frank Warren is a true heavyweight promoter

It is a long way from Joe Bugner fighting in a hotel banquet suite in 1982 to the heavyweight championship of the world on Saturday night at the O2. Frank Warren has made that journey with heavyweights in just about every size and shape and condition; Saturday is the third time he has made the journey to a heavyweight world-title fight this year, which is a statistic that would have been considered pure fantasy back in the Eighties. On Saturday night, Fabio Wardley will try and regain his WBO heavyweight title from Daniel Dubois in a rematch of their savage and bloody first fight back in May; Dubois won in the 11th and survived two early knockdowns.
