Suffolk boxing sensation Fabio Wardley joins Ipswich fans in the away end at East Anglian derby... but Norwich deliver blow to their promotion hopes

British heavyweight champion and Ipswich fan Fabio Wardley was spotted in the away end at Saturday's derby against Norwich City.

The 29-year-old Suffolk sensation, who is sponsored by his beloved Blues, and wears the club's colours and badge in the ring, watched Ipswich suffer a blow to their bid for automatic promotion to the Premier League with a 1-0 defeat.

It came days after Wardley drew with Frazer Clarke to retain the British and Commonwealth heavyweight championship.

After 12 breath-taking rounds on one card Wardley won 114-113, on another Clarke had it 115-112 and on the third they were level 113-113.
