An enormous press convention will happen on the finish of the month and we are going to know much more then; resembling who AJ will face within the headline act (with Daniel Dubois, Joseph Parker and Zhilei Zhang all within the body).
However already, there was some discuss of 1 attainable supporting characteristic of a combat and this one can be a heavyweight combat. The rematch between Fabio Wardley and Frazer Clarke, who battled to an exciting, bloody draw again in March at The O2, may happen at Wembley. Clarke spoke with Sky Sports activities and he mentioned there are “deep conversations happening” relating to the opportunity of the rematch happening at Wembley on September twenty first.
As nice as the primary combat was, and as so completely shut because it was ultimately – a draw in fact being as shut as any combat can probably be – a return makes a lot sense. And as an under-card combat, Clarke-Wardley II would add nice worth for cash for followers.
“I can’t inform you an excessive amount of, however what I can inform you now’s there are deep conversations happening and it’s simply the little nitty-gritty bit now,” Clarke mentioned. “It shouldn’t be too lengthy and I feel we’re about there, and hopefully we’ll have excellent news for British combat followers. The final sense is everybody loved it [the first fight], so hopefully we can provide these guys leisure once more. It’s positively a attainable choice [to have the rematch go ahead on the AJ card], however I feel we each did ourselves a favour within the efficiency final time the place we each have choices.”
As Clarke mentioned, the primary combat proved such successful with followers {that a} rematch might be a giant headlining act at one other huge venue, or it might be a giant supporting combat on the Wembley invoice. As is often the case, cash will discuss. However each Wardley and Clarke need to combat a second time, to show who’s the higher fighter. Wardley, 17-0-1(16) was badly busted up within the combat that noticed him retain his British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles, whereas Clarke, 8-0-1(6) proved within the combat that he can battle arduous for all 12 rounds. In reality each males confirmed a lot within the March combat, and once more, we followers need to see the sequel.
If issues work out proper, this combat will go forward on the AJ card and, seeing how stacked the large Saudi-backed playing cards have been these days, there might be one other three or 4 wonderful match ups on the night time.
Who wins if/when Wardley and Clarke rumble once more?
