Alen Babic, sans the ‘Savage’ tag, is set to rumble with Steve Robinson, while the emerging Callum Simpson throws his hat in the ring again, all setting the stage for the gritty clash between undefeated heavyweights Fabio Wardley and Frazer Clarke. This brawl, dubbed ‘Bad Blood,’ is slated for a Sunday showdown on March 31st at The O2 in London. Fans can catch the action live, courtesy of Sky Sports for the UK and Ireland audience, and Peacock across the pond in the USA.
Babic, with a record that speaks volumes (11-1, 10 KOs), makes a comeback to The O2, a venue where he’s previously left his mark by defeating the likes of Morgan Dessaux, Eric Molina, and Adam Balski. The Croatian heavyweight, a fan favorite in the UK, aims to bounce back from a setback in Poland last April, where his undefeated streak was halted. Now, he’s gearing up for a tussle with Newcastle’s own Steve Robinson (6-2, 4 KOs) in what promises to be a cracking night of fights in London.
Meanwhile, Simpson (13-0, 9 KOs), fresh from his ringside stint at Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena, is itching to get back in the ring. After witnessing Zak Chelli snatch the British Super Middleweight Title from Jack Cullen, Simpson is eager to maintain his flawless record before he takes a swing at the British Title. His last outing saw him clinch a unanimous victory over Jose de Jesus Macias at York Hall.
The heavyweight duel between Wardley and Clarke is the cherry on top, with the British and Commonwealth Titles up for grabs. This ‘Bad Blood’ bout is not just a fight; it’s a declaration of war, set against the iconic backdrop of The O2 in London.
Adding spice to the mix, Florian Marku and Chris Kongo are poised to bury their welterweight feud, a grudge that’s been simmering since their explosive press conference clash last year.
