Tyson Fury Dismisses Dubois and Wardley as Below His Level

Heavyweight champion Tyson Fury said that Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley are "well below" his standard, comparing their level to lower‑tier football leagues. He made the comments while discussing his August 1 tune‑up fight and his longer‑term goal of a bout with Anthony Joshua later in the year.

Fury noted Dubois' recent capture of the WBO heavyweight title and his win over Wardley, but argued that neither fighter can challenge him. He also referenced his own recent decision victory over Arslanbek Makhmudov and highlighted other contenders such as Moses Itauma, Agit Kabayel and Frank Sanchez who remain in the WBO rankings.

The remarks come as the heavyweight division continues to shift, with Fury positioning himself for potential title opportunities while criticizing the current crop of contenders.
