The overall landscape of the heavyweight view depends largely on the result of Usyk V Dubois next month.
Queensberry promoter Frank Warren confirmed that Wardli is in the picture for a title shot, but said that the split will be clear as a whole after the integration battle of usyk with Dubois.
Warren told Dzan after Wardle’s victory over Honey, “After that fight, to find out the heavyweight division will now solve the heavyweight division to know who will be mandatory.”
“(Wardli) is there. He is going to take some time now. Let the dust freeze. He is in a situation and he has done so that the sheer patience, through the sheer heart.”
Wardli is the number one contender in the WBA rankings and holds his interim title, but it is the Kubarat Puliv of Bulgaria who holds a regular belt, which will usually make it the next in line.
Wardli of Ipswich is likely to wait for his position or create his position in the next one non-world title fight.
