British Heavyweight Championship Bout
On Saturday, November 29, 2025, Frazer Clarke will put the British heavyweight title on the line against Jeamie Tshikeva at the Vaillant Live Arena in Derby. Clarke opened as a heavy favorite at -650 ($650 to win $100), with Tshikeva the underdog at +450 ($100 to win $450.)
The bad blood dates back to 2022. After Tshikeva knocked out Jake Darnell in two rounds – the same opponent Clarke had previously outpointed – Clarke went on Sky Sports and dismissed Tshikeva, saying he wasn’t impressed and would use him as a “tune-up” once he returned from injury. Tshikeva has never forgotten the slight and has been calling for this fight ever since.
Frazer Clarke
Frazer Clarke, age 27, hails from Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, England.
Career record: 9-1-1 with 7 knockouts.
Height: 6ft 5½in, orthodox stance.
Clarke is coming off a destructive 1st-round TKO over Ghana’s Ebenezer Tetteh in April 2025. That victory came six months after his brutal 1st-round KO loss to Fabio Wardley in their rematch in October 2024.
Clarke drew with Wardley over 12 rounds in a 2024 classic (March 2024), stopped David Allen in six, outpointed Mariusz Wach, and forced Bogdan Dinu to retire in two.
Clarke talking about the fight said to the media on the buildup and his mindset: “It’s amazing to be headlining on the BBC. Jeamie is a solid all-round fighter, but I know the level I’m at and the work I’ve been putting in at the gym. He won’t hear the final bell. I’m a more complete fighter now than I’ve ever been, and with that comes knockouts. My mindset is simple: go in there, get the win, and make a statement. I’m not looking past Jeamie, but I will go straight through him.”
Jeamie Tshikeva
Jeamie Tshikeva, age 32, was born in London, England.
Career record: 8-2 with 5 knockouts.
Height: 6ft 2in, orthodox stance.
Tshikeva is coming off a 6th-round TKO defeat to David Adeleye in April 2025.
Before that setback he had won four of five, including a 9th-round retirement win over Michael Webster (Feb 2025), a 6th-round TKO of Franklin Ignatius, and a points victory over Kostiantyn Dovbyshchenko. His other loss came via 6th-round TKO to Igor Macedo in September 2023.
Tshikeva said to the media about his unique skills and the platform: “I’m excited to get the opportunity to showcase my skills in front of millions on primetime television. People are going to see things from me they haven’t seen before. I’ve got certain skills that are rare for a heavyweight, and I’m capable of bringing something different every fight. I’ve been slept on before, but they shouldn’t sleep on me in this one. Me and Frazer have been going back and forth for years, and now’s the right time. We finally get to settle it for the British title... Frazer’s a good fighter, and I expect the best version of him to turn up, but I’m bringing the heat and the fire.”
Frazer Clarke vs. Jeamie Tshikeva Best Bets
Clarke has the clear advantages in size, power-punching, experience at the higher domestic level, and recent activity against better opposition. The Wardley fights showed he can be hurt and stopped, but Tshikeva has never demonstrated the one-punch power or combination punching to repeat that feat.
The price on Clarke is big, but it’s justified. Tshikeva will bring fire and intent, yet Clarke’s superior jab, body work, and heavier hands should break him down over the championship rounds.
Main Pick: Frazer Clarke
Over/Under Pick: Fight to go Under the Total Rounds
Player Prop Picks: Clarke to win by KO/TKO
