A dispute has broken out around the proposed heavyweight rematch between Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley after comments made by Dubois’ advisor, Sam Jones. According to multiple reports, Jones raised doubts about the nature of the fight, with one characterisation described as calling it “a free shot.” Wardley’s manager, Mike Ofo, responds sharply, saying it is “offensive” to describe the rematch in that way. The disagreement centres on how the rematch is framed rather than the fight itself, with Ofo rejecting the suggestion implied by Jones’ remarks and defending Wardley’s position heading into the second meeting. The reports present the exchange as a public rematch controversy between the respective camps, involving management and advisory staff rather than direct statements from the fighters at this stage. No change to the fight’s official status or terms is reported in the provided material, but the comments have added tension to negotiations and discussion around the rematch.
