ENGLAND’S Fabio Wardley has told Oleksandr Usyk to give him a “a time, a date, a location” as he eyes a showdown with the undisputed world champion.

Wardley is now the WBO’s number one challenger for Usyk’s title after he stopped New Zealand’s Joseph Parker in the 11th round in London on Saturday.

And the 30-year-old is determined to seize his chance to face the Ukrainian.

“1,000 per cent, there is no other name I want next,” Wardley told BBC Sport. “The WBO ruling says the winner [of Parker-Wardley] has to face Oleksandr Usyk, and I believe he’s a man of his word.

“The when and where is up to him. Ultimately he is the A side in this. He can have it where he wants — that’s fine by me.

“Just give me a time, a date, a location, and I’ll see you there.”

Usyk, 38, has won all 24 of his professional bouts after winning an Olympic gold medal in London, and has been undisputed world champion at both cruiserweight and heavyweight.

Wardley, by comparison, only began boxing at 20 and would be seen as a massive underdog.

“I’m the danger man of the division right now,” he added. “I’m the one everyone writes off, the one everyone underestimates. So I’d hate for [Usyk] to be one of those as well, so take on the challenge.”
