Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley's rematch for the WBO heavyweight title has been confirmed for Oct. 17 in London.
The rematch was announced at he O2 Arena on Saturday in the build-up to Moses Itauma's heavyweight title bout with Filip Hrgovic.
The pair produced a fight of the year contender in May, with Dubois (23-3, 22 KOs) beating Wardley with a Round 11 stoppage to take his title and become a two-time heavyweight champion.
After Wardley (20-1-1, 19 KOs) activated the rematch clause in the days after the fight, the second act has been confirmed to take place at the O2 later this year.
Dubois survived two knockdowns in Round 1 and Round 3 with a classy boxing display and was heading for a victory on the scorecards before referee Howard Foster stopped the fight in Round 11.
