Frazer Clarke vs. Jeamie TKV | BBC - 29 November 2025

[joshj909]

TKV is hopeless, gotta be Frazer by early stoppage.

He isn't as hopeless as he looks!

I do expect Frazer to win well, but TKV was an experienced amateur, a big guy, can box a bit and through being an ugly spoiler, he can drag a fighter down.

But lacks power and is overweight

Hopeless is too strong a word, but I did pick him to lose against the random Brazilian dude. As Darren Barker would say, "Don't get up to make a cuppa tea." Inside three rounds for me.

He's hopeless in terms of boxing skill but in terms of spoiling and making it an ugly fight to win rounds, he was beating Adeleye before the dodgy stoppage which should've been a DQ.

It's a travesty that it wasn't a DQ.
And TKV does know how to box, he has bursts of it, but not nearly enough. His cardio and I guess weight lets him down.
I like Frazer, and it should be fairly straight forward for him.

He somewhat reminds me of Kid Galahad's ugly style. I think Clarke wins this, probably comfortably. However, for English and British level boxers, TKV might be able to ask questions by fighting ugly.

[Frostieballs]

These two were properly at it on talkSPORT earlier.

Genuine beef. At least on TKV’s part.

[THEBUTCH]

Fraser likes to get under the skin of his opponent.

[KiwiRider]

I wasn't actually that fussed about watching this card, but the end of year for boxing is so sucky, I'm all in on this now!

[TheLeprechaun]

I'd say it's a 50:50 fight. I think both can win at range, both are bully boxers in a sense although I'd have TKV as the more "bully boy" boxing style but he can operate at distance as he showed against Adeleye, as limited as Adeleye is. Frazer will try to keep it long and outbox him. Maybe he can. I'm not so sure.

[stujones]

It is as good a fight for the vacant British title as you can get with the availability of those around them. Fully expect Clarke to win, think people are forgetting fight 1 with Wardley.

[joshj909]

Hopefully Clarke wins this and puts in some worthwhile defences. He doesn't look like he's world level but there's some solid British matchups for him. Adeleye, Hughie, Okolie, Riakporhe, Joyce and Dacres are all respectable fights for him and would sell better than him against a European that likely beats him.

Yh win the Lonsdale belt outright.

Would be a decent achievement tbh.

I thought he beat Wardley. The rematch he could have been caught cold.

I think I had Wardley winning a close decision. The thing is, he's just joining what will inevitably be a long list of the many boxers who have nearly beat Wardley's but didn't. His was slightly different as it actually managed to reach scorecards. Is failing to beat Wardley on the scorecards a better show of ability than comfortably winning on the cards but getting KO'd in the late rounds?

[keithmoonhangover]

I must be old fashioned, because I don't think male boxers should have saggy breasts.

Yes, that night alone was.

Other than the elderly and Sean Brennan's ex wife, is there anyone for who saggy breasts are acceptable?

Well. Mrs keithmoonhangover has always had epic boobs and despite being 62, they are still pretty much where they're supposed to be.

cant help thinking this is an odd fight for the BBC to return with given that this might be a messy brawly affair. definately not for the purists or the squeamish

Bobby Dalton embraces BBC spotlight: ‘This feels like the start of my career’

By his own admission, Bobby Dalton knows he’s still a few wins away from being able to rely upon boxing as his sole source of income.

Opportunities like the one that awaits the unbeaten boxer this weekend can help speed up that process.

Dalton, 11-0 (2 KOs), is set to defend his English 147lbs title against fellow unbeaten welterweight Joel Kodua, 9-0 (2 KOs). Their bout serves in supporting capacity to the Frazer Clarke-Jeamie “TKV” Tshikeva heavyweight clash atop BOXXER’s BBC launch show this Saturday at Vaillant Live in Derby, UK.

“Even more people are going to see me. This feels like it’s the start of my career,” Dalton told BS. “There will be a lot more attention on my fight than any other.

“I’ve boxed on big shows but nothing as big as being on BBC. There will be a lot of eyes on this, and I’m looking forward to making many new fans after Saturday.”

It’s an important step in the blue-collar career of Dalton, a native of Redcar, UK, who works full time as an assistant structures and asset engineer while pursuing his degree in civil engineering.

A packed schedule goes into his balancing a full-time job and his boxing career. It’s a necessary sacrifice, as his list of goals gets cleared one line at a time.

“I get up, I train before work and then go to work,” noted Dalton, who is trained by his father, Bobby Dalton Snr. “Literally, from work I go straight to the gym. Then I go home to rest and sleep. Then it’s the same thing when I wake up the next day. It’s a lot of hard work, but I know it’s going to pay off one day.

“I’ve got an apprenticeship in civil engineering. I’m an assistant engineer and am going to university to get my degree. It’s hard work, but I’ve learned long ago not to put all my eggs in one basket. My ultimate goal is for boxing to be my full-time job. I believe I’m just a few fights away, and a show like this helps accelerate the pace.”

The first significant career boost came on this exact weekend one year ago.

Just 31 months and eight fights into his pro career, Dalton challenged unbeaten Jeff Saunders – 17-0 at the time – for Britain’s Northern Area welterweight title. It was his first major test, and Dalton prevailed via 10-round decision to earn his first regional belt.

A mere seven months later, Dalton was presented with a short-notice opportunity to take on the more experienced and well-regarded Ben Vaughan. Their July 26 clash came with the English title at stake, which Dalton claimed via hard-fought majority decision.

More so than the win, Dalton enjoyed his first taste of expanded media coverage. The introduction to the spotlight came courtesy of his alignment with CM Sports Agency.

“Before the Ben Vaughan fight, Colin got in touch with me to work together,” Dalton said. “He lined up all these interviews and got a lot of attention paid to my career. I never had that opportunity before then.

“Now I’m fighting on BBC.”

The current progression in Dalton’s young career comes at a time when the welterweight division is packed with name value but lacks a definitive leader.

Jaron “Boots” Ennis abdicated his lineal throne and unified titles to campaign at 154lbs. Devin Haney recently dethroned previously unbeaten WBO titlist Brian Norman Jnr, the de facto No. 1 welterweight but by no means the universal choice.

Mario Barrios, Rolando Romero and Lewis Crocker hold the WBC, WBA and IBF titles, respectively. Behind them are the division’s more notable figures in Ryan Garcia and Conor Benn, the latter who is committed to returning to the division after his two-fight set with Chris Eubank Jnr.

As it relates to Brits such as Dalton, Belfast’s Crocker and Ilford’s Benn represent the most marketable options without the need to travel the globe. For now, such boxers represent the level that Dalton one day aspires to reach.

“I’m still a few fights away from that level – I’m a realist,” admitted Dalton. “But you still have to pay attention and use that as your motivation to get where you want to in your career. I believe in myself. I wouldn’t be fighting while working a full-time job if I didn’t believe.

“I’m quite calculated in how I approach things. It’s still fight-by-fight for me. I don’t want to say, ‘I’m going to do this, do that.’ But one day, I really believe I’ll be at that level.”

A win on Saturday will mark his third against relevant competition in a span of exactly 52 weeks, this on by far his biggest stage to date.

By no means does Dalton expect to land any of the abovementioned titlists in his next fight. Rather, he references another significant welterweight fight taking place just one week later.

“Conah Walker is the current British champion; he fights Pat McCormack next,” Dalton stated, referencing the all-British clash set to take place December 6 on Matchroom’s annual show in Monte Carlo, Monaco. “We’ll see how that goes, but I really see myself fighting for that title within my next couple of fights.

“By this time next year, I really fancy myself as the British welterweight champion.”

Joel Kodua driven by Anthony Yarde, Tunde Ajayi and fighting on the BBC

Joel Kodua on Saturday challenges Bobby Dalton for the English welterweight title aware that his career can be transformed by fighting on the BBC.

Dalton-Kodua serves as the chief support to the vacant British heavyweight title fight between Frazer Clarke and Jeamie Tshikeva at Vaillant Live in Derby, England on the occasion of Boxxer’s first date of their new broadcast agreement with an influential terrestrial television platform recognised around the world.

Saturday’s date was postponed from October 25 because of an injury suffered by “TKV” Tshikeva and as a consequence the 28-year-old Kodua had continued training alongside Anthony Yarde under their trainer Babatunde Ajayi for the fight with David Benavidez that he then had to endure watching Yarde lose.

He regardless is focused on the opportunity that fighting Dalton presents to him, and determined to force himself into the same picture as Britain’s leading fighters at 147lbs.

In his previous fight, in June, Kodua was the underdog when fighting Daniel Francis for the southern area title; he proceeded to stop Francis in the 10th of 10 rounds that night at London’s York Hall, and he is motivated by the prospect of making a statement once again.

“[Fighting on the BBC is] a big dream come true,” he told BS. “I started boxing 2018, and the trajectory I’m going through is beautiful. I’m gonna fight for the English title – the best in England, as a welterweight. It’s gonna be good. It’s gonna be entertaining.

“I try not to focus on [the potential pressure]. I just try to keep my head down, stay working in the gym – working as hard as possible. But I do see a lot of people recognising me. They’ll either ask for a picture or be like ‘You’re that boxer, innit?’. It’s a mixture of both.

“I wasn’t really frustrated [when it was postponed]. It’s part of the sport. I’m always training; I’m always in the gym. When they postponed I was like, ‘Okay’, it just gives me time to get better.

“He’s a good opponent. He’s the English welterweight champion. It’ll be good to display my skills and my boxing IQ in this fight. He’s fit, and he comes for a fight, so it’s good.

“I’m sort of used to the pressure. My last fight I was main event, for the southern area, in a packed out York Hall. Boiling hot. I’m used to that pressure. I thrive around it. I enjoyed [being the underdog].”

Since Ajayi’s return to London following Benavidez-Yarde, Kodua has again become the trainer’s full focus. Kodua remained in London while Yarde and Ajayi were in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, but he believes that his preparations for Saturday have been enhanced by training alongside someone challenging for a world title at 175lbs.

“It’s beautiful,” he said. “Anthony’s a world-level fighter. Me seeing it from the beginning of my career – it shows me how hard I need to work, and keep my head down and stay focused.

“It was difficult [watching him lose], I’ll be honest with you. But he boxed extremely well, up until his nose starting bleeding. It’s unfortunate, but he’ll be back, 100 per cent. Lions in the camp.

“With us, it’s our job, so it’s just like – we just have to get on with it.

“Regardless, I’m still proud of Anthony and Tunde, ‘cause where they’ve come from. Anthony grew up in east London, in Newham. The odds for him to make it to the world stage were minute. To do that, it’s a very big accomplishment. Especially him having 12 amateur fights. It’s a massive accomplishment.”

Kodua was then asked about who he considers Britain’s leading welterweight, and he responded: “You’re gonna have to go with [Lewis] Crocker ‘cause he’s the [IBF] champion.

“[It’s] very motivating [that the domestic welterweight scene is so competitive]. I can’t take my foot off the gas. It just makes me work harder – and I enjoy the challenge.”

I have it 50:50 but there is a chance that Frazer is able to keep distance and outbox him which would probably lead to a stoppage by the midway point. If Frazer is a level above then it could be a good showcase for him. He's just a plodding average type of guy so I'm not sure he can outclass TKV like that but I don't think a TKV domination has any chance. TKVs route to winning is probably a 50:50 fight on the outside and plenty of sloppy mauling/clinching. I think Frazer can also win that fight but he also has upside to dominate if he's just the superior boxer and able to keep it long. I kind of get the feeling its trending more in that direction.

Eddie Hearn: Clashing with Ben Whittaker is ‘no good for Boxxer’

Eddie Hearn doesn’t believe that Boxxer rearranged Frazer Clarke-Jeamie Tshikeva in a deliberate attempt to clash with the fight between Ben Whittaker and Benjamin Gavazi on Saturday night.

Whittaker, previously so valuable to Boxxer, fights for the first time since signing promotional terms with Matchroom when he confronts Germany’s Gavazi at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham, England, so close to his hometown of West Bromwich.

Also on Saturday, at Vaillant Live in nearby Derby, Clarke and “TKV” Tshikeva contest the vacant British heavyweight title in the main event of Boxxer’s first date of their broadcast agreement with the BBC.

Clarke-Tshikeva had previously been scheduled for October 25, when DAZN – the broadcaster of Boxxer’s leading promotional rivals Queensberry Promotions and Matchroom – were overseeing Queensberry’s heavyweight contest between Joseph Parker and Fabio Wardley, until an injury suffered by Tshikeva forced its postponement until Saturday.

Queensberry’s allegedly had been critical of them for selecting October 25 for their launch date, and while Hearn has so far refused to be similarly critical, the promoter explained that he does not believe that Boxxer have since chosen November 29 because of how disruptive to Boxxer’s ambitions clashing with the 28-year-old Whittaker could potentially be.

“A lot of people have accused Boxxer of deliberately changing the event to this date to try and take the shine off Ben Whittaker,” Hearn told BS. “I don’t buy that. I think there was an injury – ‘TKV’ wasn’t ready – and sometimes the only date that you can do with the venue or whatever it is is a specific date. I don’t think it was done out of spite, because you just wouldn’t want to clash with Ben Whittaker anyway – it’s no good for them.

“Because it’s Whittaker, and I can’t say it’s not a clash, because obviously it is a clash, but it’s not something I’m particularly concerned about because of the audience and noise of Ben Whittaker. The plans that we’ve got for the event; the ring walk… We’re going O-T-T on the show, and I just think people are going to tune in for him.

“It’ll be to the detriment of everyone. The reality is the beauty of the BBC deal is you will get a lot more of a casual fight fan, who might not even realise who these people are, or what they’re watching, but they will tune in, because some people do sit at home and flick through BBC One and BBC Two, and these kinds of channels – especially the older generation. But fight fans will choose the best product.

“If you look at Boxxer clashing with Wardley-Parker, with all due respect to Clarke against TKV, as a fight fan you’re going to choose Wardley-Parker all day long. It’s not even my fight. But it’s the truth. Again, with the Whittaker show and the undercard and everything that comes with it, you’re going to choose that as well, so I don’t think we’re gonna lose any of our audience. Where I think they’ve been a little bit naive is they need that boxing audience as well, and obviously if it’s a free night – as in no other clashes – the boxing audience is automatically going to be available to them. Now they’re going to lose that boxing audience because they’re going to watch a better show.”

Before Whittaker’s light-heavyweight fight with the 30-year-old Gavazi, the Britons Cameron Vuong and Gavin Gwynne contest their rematch at 140lbs.

Regardless of their respective undercards, however, and partly on account of Matchroom also promoting beyond the UK, Hearn – who on January 24 in Las Vegas promotes the appealing IBF lightweight title fight between Raymond Muratalla and Andy Cruz – has become resigned to similar clashes in other territories. He also doesn’t believe, unlike Warren has previously said, that the coming clash is the fault of the BBC.

“The good thing about DAZN now, especially with Queensberry being on the same platform, is we’ll never clash with Queensberry again, and we clashed for years and years,” he said. “I can honestly say the only clash that I ever had that was even remotely tactical was [Josh] Warrington against [in 2018, Carl] Frampton, and [Derek] Chisora-[Dillian] Whyte.

“When I say it was ‘tactical’, it was never tactical, but it got to the point where that was the only date we could do, and it was like, ‘You’re up against Warrington and Frampton’. ‘No, we actually think we’ll do better, so we’ll go on that night’. But that was back when rivalry was fierce. Every other clash I’ve ever done – I never liked to do it. We get it in America a lot. The schedule – January 24 is going to be a particularly good show for us. [Manny] Pacquiao’s going the same night. Or rumoured to [be]. We’ve had that date locked in with a venue. You’ve then either gotta move it or go, ‘No, actually, it is what it is’. It’s difficult sometimes.

“[It’s] definitely not the BBC. I don’t think the BBC, with all due respect, really have an understanding or a strategy yet in boxing. They’ve been presented with an opportunity to host boxing. We all know, BBC – great platform. The problem is they’re not going to spend any money, so you’re always limited. If you look at the undercard for that fight – TKV – there isn’t really an undercard. But that’s not their fault – it’s just that the rights’ fees don’t exist, so you’re always going to be under-served in terms of the product versus the competition, but you do have good viewership.

“But the problem is you need the money to make the fights and to service your fighters, unless you’re prepared to drop down a level of quality within your product – which would still work, because the BBC haven’t been asking for deep undercards and ‘We want this and we want that’. They’re just saying ‘British heavyweight title fight? That’s perfect for us’, and it is in a way, so I think that partnership [with Boxxer] can work.”

Frazer Clarke: I'm arriving where I need to be at the right time

Five weeks after their original October 25 billing, Frazer Clarke and Jeamie TKV will finally face off for the vacant British heavyweight title in Derby this weekend.

Olympic bronze medallist Clarke (9-1-1, 7 KOs) is the overwhelming pre-fight favourite (-500) and there are multiple reasons why.

Chief among them is perhaps the mixed emotions and invaluable experience gained from his two-fight series with newly-minted WBO world heavyweight champion Fabio Wardley.

At last month's inaugural press conference, the 34-year-old didn't hesitate when reflecting on a humbling chapter in his career many contemporaries wouldn't be so keen to revisit.

"The first was a classic, second one I got chinned," he said. "You go from being on a high of potentially winning the British title to being dismantled in a round, just shows the epic swings - but it's how you pick yourself up from those lows."

Many felt Clarke had done enough to edge their thrilling first encounter, but a point deduction in round seven for repeated low blows proved costly on the scorecards.

No-one foresaw Wardley's scary first-round knockout coming, especially after the back-and-forth nature of the 12 rounds preceding it seven months earlier. Clarke's unbeaten record was spectacularly spoiled and suddenly BOXXER promoter Ben Shalom's original reticence to put him in this fight so early was more justifiable in hindsight.

British journalists in Riyadh that night frantically searched for an update on Clarke's condition as the card headlined by Artur Beterbiev-Dmitry Bivol continued, though the aftereffects could've been much worse but for fast-acting care and medical attention.

Cleared for a return to full training barely three months after surgery from a broken jaw, the slow rebuild began. How long did it take him though, to come to terms with such a vicious defeat?

"Instantly. Obviously after the initial shock wears off, you look at the mistakes made - I know what I did wrong - it's about altering them," he told The Ring.

"I went back to the gym slowly over time, then just drilling months and months of working to alter it so that doesn't happen again. That's my job as a fighter, always be learning, maintain discipline, stick to what you know but put the work in. It's time to show it."

Clarke has maintained a burning desire to stay active, for better or worse, though his one-round blowout of Ebenezer Tetteh in April on the Ben Whittaker-Liam Cameron II undercard didn't teach us anything.

Seven months later he's back, on the same night as his Olympic medallist teammate, this time headlining separate shows for different promotions. Clarke could've easily left BOXXER and Shalom, as some have recently, but the loyalty he's shown heavily-criticised trainer Angel Fernandez has extended to the man who signed him entering the paid ranks.

"I've been on the phone hurling abuse at people because I want to fight, it's my living," he says. "It's not hard going to the gym - I love it - the problem is putting in effort without light at the end of the tunnel, it's hard on the body and mind, not to mention all the sacrifices.

"Enough persistence, prodding and poking got me what I needed, and it's finally here."

He can sense the next question and pre-emptively goes to bat for his coach.

"Angel is a teacher," Clarke adds. "He's hard on me but since Richard [Riakporhe] left the gym, I've had a lot more time with him and it's like any athlete-coach relationship, he works me hard, gets a bit of a bad rap but is a very good coach, otherwise I wouldn't be with him.

"I've been around the sport long enough to know a good coach from a bad one, he has his faults - we all do - but he's learning himself, is a very knowledgeable teacher, it's not about losing and leaving your trainer. You have to look inwardly, self-critique and what happened in the second Fabio fight, that's on no-one else but me."

So what makes Fernandez so good?

"He's so good at breaking things down, teaching me new techniques, mindset is a big thing and some relationships ... people just don't understand," he says. "They don't have to, as long as I do, that's all that matters. The boxing world is a very bitchy place, a lot of people talk, but I'll just say don't worry about us - we're doing our jobs."

Speak to him away from the cameras he's jovial but Tottenham's Tshikeva (8-2, 5 KOs) has willingly played the aggressor, still seething from being deemed a stepping stone by Clarke as he watched him ringside against Jake Darnell three years ago.

Clarke has been candid previously about how his ceiling is above achieving the prestigious Lonsdale belt, otherwise he wouldn't have continued to box.

How does he compartmentalise those feelings, when he's still hanging at this level aged 34 while others - like former opponent Dave Allen - are getting world-level opportunities?

"I never thought he was [a stepping stone], just throwing shade," Clarke admits.

"I saw a quote the other day that said 'slowly is the fastest way to success' and it makes real sense, it's all part of the journey. I'm arriving where I need to be at the right time, all the trials and tribulations, this life isn't easy - there will be ups and downs - but as long as you dig deep when it gets tough, keep going along, that's all you can do."
