Big Fraze calls out Wardley with sights set on ‘epic’ British bout

Big Fraze

Frazer Clarke has called out Fabio Wardley for the British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles.

The Burton-born boxer, 32, was ringside to watch Wardley retain his British heavyweight title against David Adeleye in Saudi Arabia.

Clarke was keen to let the champion know his thoughts on a potential showdown.

Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: “He’s a great troll, one of the best in fact. When I get in there I will literally seek and destroy.

“I hope the business doesn’t get in the way this time. I’m used to amateur boxing, where the best fight the best.

“That’s all I want. I want to progress my career and fight the best people and I think Fabio is there, he’s proven he’s there and I look forward to doing that.”

The Olympic bronze medallist had been ordered to challenge Wardley, 28, earlier this year but was pulled out by his promotional company BOXXER for more experience.

Since then, Clarke has managed victories over Mariusz Wach and David Allen.

After his seventh-round TKO victory, Wardley embraced the challenge and was eager at the prospect of facing Clarke.

He told Sky Sports: “I’m always 100 per cent confident in retaining my belts. I’ve put them on the line before and I’ll happily do it again.

“There’s no point going into all the fuss and faff of what happened before and worry about the fight that was meant to be that never was.

“Everyone clearly knew from that that I was ready to take the fight there and then. So nothing’s changed, nothing’s different. I’m happy to get it on whenever.”
