Dave Allen is one of Britain’s most popular fighters right now, and he has given his Joseph Parker vs Fabio Wardley prediction ahead of Saturday’s heavyweight showdown.
The English heavyweight was recently beaten by Arslanbek Makhmudov in his own big fight, and is backing his British counterpart to struggle this weekend too.
Dave Allen Gives Joseph Parker vs Fabio Wardley Prediction
Dave Allen remains one of the most popular British fighters right now, despite losing his last fight to Arslanbek Makhmudov earlier this month.
He mightn’t be one of the most followed boxers in the world, but ‘The White Rhino’ is a firm fan favourite amongst UK fight fans.
The English heavyweight is no stranger to a big fight, having shared the ring with the likes of Dillian Whyte, Luis Ortiz, David Price and Johnny Fisher twice to name but a few former opponents.
Allen might not always come out as the winner, but he has experienced several huge nights in the heavyweight division. With that in mind, what better man to give insight into this weekend’s mammoth heavyweight clash.
Joseph Parker vs Fabio Wardley takes centre-stage on Saturday night at the O2 Arena, with world title implications firmly on the line. The winner is all but guaranteed a shot at the WBO World Heavyweight Title next.
As someone who has been in the ring in high pressure situations, Allen’s Parker vs Wardley prediction will be one respected by boxing fans. The Doncaster-born heavyweight knows his boxing, and has a strong feeling about how Saturday’s fight will play out.
Although many people feel that Parker vs Wardley will be won by the New Zealander on points or by the Brit via knockout, Allen isn’t predicting either of these outcomes.
Instead, Dave Allen’s Parker vs Wardley prediction is for the former world heavyweight champion to be the one to secure the knock out, becoming the first man to defeat Fabio Wardley in the process.
‘Parker Will Stop Wardley’ – Dave Allen Predicts Joseph Parker vs Fabio Wardley
Unlike Derek Chisora’s Joseph Parker vs Fabio Wardley prediction, Dave Allen is backing Parker to win the fight inside the distance.
‘The White Rhino’ admits that Wardley is an exceptional fighter in his own right, but that Parker is world class and on a different level altogether.
Speaking in a recent interview with Boxing News, Allen gave a short and sweet answer when asked for his Parker vs Wardley prediction:
“I think Parker will stop Wardley. Too experienced and too good.” Allen revealed in a recent interview with Boxing News.
Allen may well have his sights set on facing the loser of Saturday’s fight. Should Wardley get defeated by Parker, like Allen is predicting, the pair may well face each other next year.
