Daniel Dubois and Fabio Wardley are ready to run back one of the year’s most brutal battles.

The heavyweight stars successfully weighed in for their bout Saturday, which takes place The O2 in London with Dubois’ WBO championship on the line. Wardley weighed in at 248.3 pounds, six pounds heavier than their first encounter this past May, but Dubois will still enter the ring as the bigger man at 253.9 pounds.

Dubois-Wardley 1 was widely acclaimed as a Fight of the Year candidate after the two big men engaged in a dramatic and bloody duel, with Wardley having Dubois in serious trouble early before Dubois battled back and outlasted Wardley en route to a TKO victory in Round 11. With the win, Dubois claimed the WBO belt for the first time to become a two-time heavyweight champion (after previously holding an IBF belt).

Several other heavyweights compete on Saturday’s card, with undefeated prospect Adam Olaniyan (250.15) holding the biggest weight advantage as he came in 27 pounds heavier than Dan Garber (223.15).
