Boxxer announced some additional bouts for the Tyson Fury vs. Arslanbek Makhmudov undercard on Saturday, April 11th at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, live on Netflix. [Previously named as the co-feature was Conor Benn vs. ex-champ Regis Prograis]. Heavyweight roster mates Jeamie TKV and Richard Riakporhe will clash for the British heavyweight title in an encounter between the London rivals. Frazer Clarke returns to action in another heavyweight showdown as he takes on Justis Huni. Tottenham’s TKV begins his reign as British champion after defeating Clarke via split decision to capture the vacant title in a bruising twelve-round contest in Derby last November. TKV proved his pedigree in the hard-fought victory and came close to stopping Clarke in the eleventh round.

 

Riakporhe, from Walworth in South London, has looked destructive since moving up to heavyweight, having previously held the British title and challenged for world honors at cruiserweight. Fighting on the undercard of the Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn II rematch, Riakporhe made short work of Tommy Welch, showcasing his knockout power with a second-round stoppage victory.

 

Clarke suffered a split-decision defeat to TKV last time out and will be eager to get back to winning ways. The 2021 Olympic bronze medal winner faces a tough assignment against Australia’s Huni, who is also looking to get his promising career back on track following a knockout defeat to Clarke’s former rival Fabio Wardley. Huni was ahead on all three judges’ scorecards and appeared to be cruising towards a points victory when he was dramatically stopped by Wardley, the current WBO champion in the tenth round of their contest for the WBA interim title.

 

Sidcup welterweight Elliot Whale also features on the card against Tom Hill as he looks to continue his run following a TKO victory over Ashlee Eales in Leeds last December. The unbeaten Whale delivered a composed performance to secure the stoppage win. Fighting in front of a huge crowd at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and live on Netflix represents another important step in Whale’s development.
