Frazer Clarke vs. Jeamie TKV – results and post-fight report
Jeamie TKV caused an upset at Vaillant Live in Derby, winning the vacant British heavyweight title with a split decision victory over Frazer Clark.
The two were supposed to meet at the end of October, but TKV suffered an injury and the fight with Clarke was postponed.
Clarke (9-2-1, KO7) returned to action in February after a one-round loss to Fabio Wardley in the rematch and stopped Ebenezer Tetteh in the Birmingham round.
TKV (9-2, KO5) suffered a controversial defeat in April in the fight for the same belt against David Adeleye.
The beginning was difficult, with a lot of clinching in the first set, and although Clarke did some good body work in the second, TKV was successful, landing cleanly on the host’s head.
After having a point deducted for low punches, TKV began to raise his effectiveness and slowly climbed to the top, with an overhand right hook and a left hook that connected.
TKV were brutalizing Clarke and it looked like the Derby player was fading, only to find a second wind in the eighth, connecting head and body.
The tenth period saw the pair go back and forth, with TKV landing some vicious punches towards the end of the round, with him finishing much stronger, and the referee taking a strenuous look at Clarke as he stumbled across the ring at the end of the penultimate frame.
Clarke was at the end of his rope, but somehow he managed to survive and see the fight go down on the cards.
Clarke’s 115-112 score was eclipsed by TKV’s scores of 115-113 and 115-112, who was crowned the fresh champion.

In tiny, the English welterweight title was won by Joel Kodua (10-0, KO2), defeating Bobby Dalton (11-2, KO2) on points.

Jack Massey (23-3, KO13) returned from losing his IBF cruiserweight title fight to Jai Opetaia last October and had to leave the ring in the first round before scoring in the fourth round against Ivan Gabriel Garcia (10-5-1, KO10).
The only fighter who went eight rounds competed in the middleweight division, where Bradley Goldsmith (14-1, KO9) clearly won on points against Jordan Dujon (10-6, KO0).

Dave Allen was unable to achieve the impossible at home against Doncaster Rovers FC when Filip Hrgovic delivered a one-sided beating to him in third-round stoppage time to claim the vacant IBF Intercontinental heavyweight title.
Allen was definitely the weaker fighter against Hrgovic.
Fan favorite Allen (25-9-2, KO20) rarely gets into a uninteresting fight, and after stopping Johnny Fisher last May, he was overtaken by Arslanbek Makhmudov before returning to winning ways in a modest comeback in February.
Hrgovic (20-1, KO15) is two wins since losing to Daniel Dubois in 2024, with his last points victory coming against David Adeleye last August.
Hrgovic started in a measured fashion, hitting Allen with constant 1-2s, and Allen struggled with timing in the first round.
Hrgovic kept the pressure going by toying with Allen he landed heavy blows in the second and holding it at the end of challenging right hands.
Allen simply couldn’t avoid the punches that were coming his way, and after the Croatian landed a punch to the body and head, Allen saw enough of the corner and threw in the towel to save his man.
Michael Gomez Jr. fight with Lee McGregor
Michael Gomez Jr (23-2, KO8) won the lightweight clash, defeating former European champion Lee McGregor (16-3-1, KO11) in the sixth round of a scheduled 10-round fight.
McGregor was dropped in the fourth, and after suffering solemn injuries, the Scot threw in the towel from a corner midway through the sixth.
Remaining fights
Louie O’Doherty (12-0, KO3) added the vacant Commonwealth lightweight title to his British crown by defeating Ahmed Hatim (12-1, KO3) during their meeting.
O’Doherty edged the winner by two scores of 118-110 and third by a score of 119-109.
The only fighter to go eight rounds was a super welterweight, with Carl Fail (12-0, KO4) defeating Luis Enrique Montelongo Morales (18-18, KO4).
Congratulations Filip

Paddy Donovan secured another world title shot by winning his IBF welterweight title final eliminator by majority decision over Karen Chukhadzhian on Friday in Mannheim, Germany.
Donovan (15-2, 11 KO) defeated Chukhadzhian (26-4, 14 KO) in the sixth and eighth rounds and emerged victorious by the score of 115-113, 114-112, surpassing the drawn score of 113-113.
Donovan, after two defeats in a row to Lewis Crocker, decided to box the back of the foot from the beginning and fired several correct body shots in the first round.
Chukhadzhian is undefeated in two matches since his second defeat Jaron Ennis– he responded with several difficult shots in the second, and the left hand caught Donovan’s attention.
“The Real Deal” pushed the Ukrainian away with his left hand at the end of the third period, but the 30-year-old responded in the fourth round and continued to march forward, and at the end of the round with his right hand, which was his best achievement.
Donovan found his breakthrough in the sixth round, countering his opponent with a sturdy left hand.
Chukhadzhian stood up, looking more frustrated than hurt.
The Ukrainian fell again and scored eight, this time with a right hand, although he protested that it was due to a push.
The pair continued their wild ninth rally, with the Irishman landing a precise uppercut that earned Chukhadzhian’s approval.
Chukhadzhian traded with Donovan at close quarters over the final three rounds, with both men landing some solid combinations.
With Donovan fading and forced to fight back, the Ukrainian put his best foot forward in a compelling final round.
The first scorecard was 115-113 in Donovan’s favor and was met with a scorecard of 113-113.
The third score of 114-112 gave the Irishman the victory to leave Germany and sparked wild celebrations in the ring, including from the promoter Eddie Hearn.
Donovan, who was defeated by Crocker in September, called the Belfast fighter for a post-fight trilogy.
Crocker makes his first title defense against Liam Paro on June 24 in Australia.
Webb with Odiase KO
Emanuel Odiase won the vacant IBF European heavyweight title with a second-round knockout of Nick Webb.
After a close first round, Odiase (11-0, 9 KO) hit Webb (19-4, 15 KO), and the attack with two punches knocked him to the deck, and the Briton failed to defeat the count.
Kadiru dismisses Gashi
In a tender heavyweight fight, Peter Kadiru defeated veteran Senad Gashi (34-5, 32 KO).
The scores of 96-94, 98-92 and 97-93 ensured the victory for Kadir (23-1, 13 KO).
Undercard remaining
Cameroonian heavyweight Nelvie Tiafack (4-0, 3 KO) remained undefeated, going the distance for the first time in his career with a unanimous decision over Mateus Munhoz Da Penha (7-3-2, 3 KO).
Elsewhere in the heavyweight division, Viktor Jurk (14-0, 12 KO) knocked out Edwin Castillo (13-3, 8 KO) in the first few seconds of the fight.
Alexander Okafor (4-0, 2 KO) defeated Elija Uelkueseven (8-1, 6 KO) and thanks to a split decision won the fight for the title of the German BDB cruiserweight champion.
WAS THIS THE FASTEST Knockout In The World?!?!
