The upcoming bout between Frazer Clarke and Dave Allen is set to take place at the Manchester Arena in London, England. The fight will be available on Sky Sports pay-per-view and is expected to attract the attention of hardcore boxing fans in the UK.

Frazer Clarke, also known as 'Big Fraze,' is the favorite heading into the fight. He holds an unbeaten record of 7-0 with 5 knockouts since turning professional in February 2022. Clarke, a former Olympic bronze medalist, has been regarded as a promising heavyweight prospect. His most notable win came against Polish veteran Mariusz Wach.

Dave Allen, also known as the 'White Rhino,' is considered Clarke's toughest opponent to date. Allen's career had a slow start due to not  initially taking boxing seriously. He has faced established names in the heavyweight division, including Dillian Whyte, Luis Ortiz, and David Price, and secured wins against Lucas Browne and Nick Webb. However, Allen's recent opponents have all had losing records, raising questions about his preparedness for a skilled boxer like Clarke.

Allen's confidence remains high, and he sees the fight as an opportunity to boost his prospects in the heavyweight division. This fight could be a pivotal moment for Allen, who is not signed to a major promotional outfit at present.

In contrast, the fight is somewhat of a challenge for Clarke. Despite his unbeaten record, some have criticized his ability to score impressive knockouts. Allen's resilience and durability in the ring are well-known, and he aims to prove his worth against Clarke.

The prediction for the fight leans toward Frazer Clarke's favor. Clarke's extensive amateur background is expected to give him an advantage, allowing him to secure a 10-round unanimous decision. Allen's best chance of victory lies in the early rounds, as he is known for his knockout power, especially before round five. However, Allen has never won on points in contests with ten rounds or more.

Clarke's height advantage and boxing skills are likely to come into play during the fight. He is expected to utilize his jab and body punches against Allen, who tends to come in close. Clarke's recent bout with Wach showed a potential for him to slow down in the later stages, but it might not matter if he has outperformed Allen in terms of effective punches landed.

In summary, the Clarke vs. Allen fight might not be a barnstormer but is anticipated to be at the very least intriguing.
