Frazer Clarke and Jeamie TKV will box on November 29 for the vacant British Heavyweight Title, as we preview this upcoming fight. 

The fight will be broadcast on the BBC, marking the first fight under BOXXER’s new broadcast deal and partnership with BBC Sport. Clarke enters into the fight on a mixed run of form. He has secured one win from his last three fights, which came against Ebenezer Tetteh in April. Prior to that, he suffered a split draw and a KO loss to Fabio Wardley. Meanwhile, Jeamie TKV is hungry for the title. His previous bid for the British Title against David Adeleye ended in a disputed sixth-round stoppage. TKV was arguably ahead on the scorecards before the stoppage. 

Pre-Fight

“If you turn on your TV, turn on the BBC, people see whatever it is. It’s just good for fans. There’ll be some watching that haven’t watched a live boxing event for years and years and years. The older generation probably doesn’t know how to use the apps that well. So, I’m really happy for them. It’s great for me as well. And to be the first headliner at that first boxing event on the BBC in 21 years, it’s a proud moment,” Clarke said

“The thing is, I’m still fighting for the British title, which is the key for me. Adeleye didn’t want the rematch and went onto different things, but I’ve remained mandatory. I think Adeleye knew it was getting tough for him that night, so pulled that one. He did that deliberately, heard the ref say ‘break’ and saw him pull my arm. He took advantage of that. He tried his luck and it worked. What happened doesn’t annoy me now, but it does annoy me he didn’t want the rematch. I wanted to put that right and if he was a man of his word he would have taken it. But he hasn’t and I am now just focusing on what is in front of me,” Jeamie TKV said
