FABIO WARDLEY sank his second beverage-related boxer by beating Michael Coffie inside four.

The 28-year-old Suffolk puncher grinded down Richard Lartey in 2020.

And he did the hot-drink double by battering his latest American foe on the undercard of Anthony Joshua vs Jermaine Franklin.

Manager Dillian Whyte was in Wardley’s corner for his protege’s chief-support slot.

And he hyped up the crowd by waving his arms to urge the Greenwich fans to get loud for his star understudy.

Wardley cracked the switch-hitter with a vicious right hand in the opening minute and targeted his thick body.

Coffie threw a few haymakers to show he was in town to win but Wardley’s defence has improved drastically and he bobbed and weaved out of danger.

Coffie, 36, had more success in the second, catching the Tractor Boy with jabs and switching stance.

Wardley made a dream start to the third, with three loud right hands landing.

But he dozed off shortly after and got caught a couple of times, one Coffie left hook to the ribs must have stung and too many jabs tagged his face.

Then, as soon as the fourth started, Wardley steamed in and unloaded a dozen shots from both booming hands.

Coffie was pinned against the ropes and taking punishment when his Philly-shell stance failed to block the onslaught.

After one too many landed flush on his chin, referee Howard Foster dived in to stop the fight.

Coffie was fuming, pushed the official way and screamed into the crowd: “Get the f*** out of here.”

He walked across the ring showing no signs of pain but, when pinned against the ropes, he did look in danger.
