The 36-year-old, nicknamed the “Nigerian Pitbull,” boasts an impressive record of 12 wins, 12 knockouts, and two losses.
Known for his aggressive fighting style, the 36-year-old had been vocal about his desire for a title shot, recently calling out the WBA to give him a chance to prove himself as the most dangerous boxer in the cruiserweight division.
“They see me, they run,” he confidently declared in a social media post last month, and now he has gotten his request.
Clarke, on the other hand, comes into the fight undefeated with a 9-0 record, including seven knockouts.
The British boxer, dubbed “C4,” is seen as a rising star in the division and will be looking to make a statement against the Nigerian.
