Frazer Clarke returns Nov 29 after a broken jaw and a controversial stoppage — his power keeps him an attractive favorite, but durability concerns could widen odds. Punters might back Clarke to win inside the distance at short odds, or seek value by betting on Jeamie TKV for an upset if bookmakers shorten Clarke’s price; consider smaller stakes until Clarke proves full recovery in the ring.
Frazer Clarke eyes British heavyweight title on historic BBC bill
From ringside security to Olympic super-heavyweight
Frazer Clarke, 34, has travelled a remarkable path from working ringside security to becoming one of Britain’s best-known heavyweights. The Staffordshire fighter, nicknamed The Eraser or Big Fraze, took up boxing at 19 and built a decorated amateur résumé, claiming silver at the 2017 European Championships and gold at the 2018 Commonwealth Games before representing Team GB at super-heavyweight in Tokyo in 2021.
Turning professional and early momentum
Clarke turned professional in December 2021 and made a striking debut in February 2022 with a first-round knockout of Jake Darnell. His pro record now stands at nine wins, one draw and one loss, giving him an 81% win rate. That form marked him out as a heavyweight to watch in the paid ranks.
The Wardley saga and injury questions
A two-fight saga with Fabio Wardley has defined much of Clarke’s recent narrative. The first meeting finished as a draw; the October 2024 rematch ended with Clarke being knocked out and suffering a broken jaw. He returned in April 2025 with a controversial first-round stoppage of Ebenezer Tetteh, leaving questions over ring rust and whether his chin and confidence have fully recovered.
November 29 showdown and historic broadcast
Clarke is scheduled to box Jeamie TKV on November 29, 2025 — part of the first boxing event broadcast by the BBC in 21 years. The bout offers Clarke a clear route back into title contention but also a test of how well he has healed and adapted since the Wardley loss.
Betting implications and form pointers for punters
Clarke’s genuine power makes him an appealing favorite for many punters, particularly for an inside-the-distance selection. However, the broken jaw and the mixed form since the Wardley rematch mean bookmakers may offer more cautious prices. Savvy bettors should weigh Clarke’s stoppage potential against durability concerns and the controversial nature of his comeback win; smaller stakes on Clarke to win with alternatives like value bets on TKV can balance risk.
What to watch on fight night
Watch Clarke’s punch output and willingness to engage early — indicators of fitness and confidence after injury. TKV’s ability to exploit any hesitation or defensive lapses will be crucial. The contest will not only determine Clarke’s immediate standing in British heavyweight rankings but also offer a clear signal on whether he can rebuild toward title contention.
