In an eagerly anticipated domestic dust-up at London's O2 Arena, Fabio Wardley defends the British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles against Frazer Clarke on March 31. 

Wardley (17-0) turned pro in 2017 and won English gold in 2020. Managed by Dillian Whyte, he beat Nathan Gorman in 2022 to win the British belt and stopped David Adeleye in impressive fashion to lift the Commonwealth belt. 

Clarke (8-0) won bronze in the 2020 Olympics. The Burton-born fighter turned pro in 2022 and has won three straight against Bogdan Dinu, Mariusz Wach, and David Allen. 

The two were supposed to fight last year before plans got nixed. Since then, they have engaged in a war of words on social media.

“I would say a rivalry is the right word. I wouldn’t say it’s a grudge because I have got no issue with Fabio,” Clarke told the PA Media. “We’ve had a bit of back and forth, but that’s just the nature of the beast. It is all part and parcel of the game. The rivalry is definitely there. I would say it is a competitive rivalry rather than anything else.”

Rising contenders look to move up in the rankings, while a young showboater is ready to impress boxing fans on the Wardley vs. Clarke undercard. Here’s a breakdown of the entire bill.
