Frazer Clarke can face Fabio Wardley this year, but only on his terms - Ben Shalom

Posted : 12 May 2023
Promoter Ben Shalom believes that the Frazer Clarke vs. Fabio Wardley match can yet happen.
 
The bronze medalist in the super heavyweight division at the Olympics, Clarke, may go up British champion Fabio Wardley later this year. Ben Shalom, the promoter for BOXXER says that Clarke need to engage in a 10-round fight first.
 
In order for the title fight to take place on that schedule, Clarke's management withdrew from the purse bidding for the Wardley fight.
 
"The reason why we pulled him out the bid is he's fought [scheduled] six-rounders up until now. His last fight went two rounds. We're not going to sling him in. [If it went to purse bids] you'd have to be taking a 12-rounder potentially in three weeks' time, with no preparation," Shalom said.
 
"It's not that he won't beat Fabio Wardley, he'd beat Fabio Wardley on his first fight. But he's not going to be fighting a 12-rounder in three weeks' time. So that's why we've made the offer. He will be doing a 10-rounder first and we've made an offer to Fabio to take the fight [after].
 
"It's best for him to have a 10-rounder before he fights his first 12-rounder. Everyone that's ever put on a pair of gloves, or ever trained a fighter will tell you, you don't go from a six-rounder to a 12-rounder overnight, regardless of the quality of opponent."
