Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitrii Bivol Undercard

Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitrii Bivol Fight

  • Division/Weight: light heavy
  • Artur Beterbiev record: 20-0
  • Dmitrii Bivol record: 23-0
  • Belts at stake: Undisputed Light Heavyweight Title

Artur Beterbiev and Dmitrii Bivol are facing off for the Undisputed Light Heavyweight Title.

Artur Beterbiev has been a professional since 2013, boasting an all-KO record with 20 wins. He last defeated Callum Smith, who had a solid track record of 29 wins. Given his streak and experience against strong opponents like Smith, Beterbiev brings formidable power to challenge Bivol's defense in the light heavyweight class.

Dmitrii Bivol turned pro in 2014 and also holds an undefeated record of 23 wins, less dominated by KOs. His recent victory was over Malik Zinad who held an impressive record himself but fewer KOs. This shows that while Bivol is consistent, his lesser knockout power compared to Beterbiev might affect his control in their upcoming title fight.

Chris Eubank Jr vs Kamil Szeremeta Fight

  • Division/Weight: middle
  • Chris Eubank Jr record: 33-3
  • Kamil Szeremeta record: 25-2
  • Belts at stake: N/A

Chris Eubank Jr faces Kamil Szeremeta in a middleweight clash without any belts on the line.

Chris Eubank Jr turned pro in 2011 and has a fight record of 33 wins, 3 losses, with 24 KOs. He last won against Liam Smith by TKO, showcasing his power and resilience, especially since Smith also had a strong record with 60% KOs. Given this experience and his relatively higher KO rate compared to Szeremeta, Eubank Jr might have the upper hand in striking power.

Kamil Szeremeta turned professional in 2012 and possesses a record of 25 wins, 2 losses, and 2 draws. His last bout was a draw against Abel Mina, who had fewer total fights but a decent punching ability (53% KOs). While Szeremeta hasn’t knocked out as many opponents proportionally as Eubank Jr, his recent encounters suggest he's durable and could challenge Eubank Jr by taking the fight to the later rounds where stamina plays a crucial role.

Fabio Wardley vs Frazer Clarke Fight

  • Division/Weight: heavy
  • Fabio Wardley record: 17-0
  • Frazer Clarke record: 8-0
  • Belts at stake: British Heavyweight Title

Fabio Wardley and Frazer Clarke are set to clash for the British Heavyweight Title.

Fabio Wardley, hailing from Ipswich, turned professional in 2017. With an undefeated record of 17 wins, zero losses, and one draw, Wardley has proved his strength, demonstrated by a 95% knockout rate. His last bout ended in a split decision draw against Frazer Clarke, showcasing his resilience against a strong opponent but suggesting a pressing need for strategy revision facing Clarke’s aggressive style again.

Frazer Clarke from Burton-on-Trent began his professional journey in 2022. Maintaining an unbeaten streak with eight wins and one draw, Clarke carries a solid KO rate of 75%. His recent draw with Fabio Wardley showed he could stand ground against experienced fighters while hinting that enhanced tactical execution might bring him victory in their rematch due to his powerful punches and shorter yet substantial pro fighting term compared to Wardley’s more extensive experience.

Jai Opetaia vs Jack Massey Fight

  • Division/Weight: cruiser
  • Jai Opetaia record: 25-0
  • Jack Massey record: 22-2
  • Belts at stake: IBF World Cruiserweight Title

Jai Opetaia faces Jack Massey for the IBF World Cruiserweight Title.

Jai Opetaia, with a flawless record of 25 wins, zero losses, and 19 knockouts since turning pro in 2015, currently holds the IBF World Cruiserweight Title. His last victory was a unanimous decision against Mairis Briedis, who had much experience and a strong record. Given Briedis’s performance and high knockout rate, Opetaia's win positions him strongly against Massey, who has suffered defeats despite facing less formidable opponents.

Jack Massey comes into this fight with a professional record of 22 wins and two losses, having 12 wins by knockout since his debut in 2013. Massey’s recent win over Isaac Chamberlain via unanimous decision highlights his capability to handle strong competitors. However, considering Chamberlain’s good but not spectacular track record compared to Opetaia’s high-level opposition success, Massey may find this upcoming match a steeper challenge.

Ben Whittaker vs Liam Cameron Fight

  • Division/Weight: light heavy
  • Ben Whittaker record: 8-0
  • Liam Cameron record: 23-6
  • Belts at stake: N/A

Ben Whittaker faces Liam Cameron in a light heavyweight clash with no titles on the line.

Ben Whittaker, at age 27, turned pro in 2022 and showcases an undefeated record of 8 wins, zero losses, with 5 knockouts. He recently defeated Eworitse Ezra Arenyeka, who held a near-perfect record. Whittaker's win against a strong opponent underlines his readiness for more experienced fighters like Cameron.

Liam Cameron, age 33, has a longer career beginning in 2009; his record stands at 23 wins and 6 losses with 10 knockouts. His last fight resulted in a split decision loss to Lyndon Arthur who has a high knockout rate. This defeat could highlight vulnerabilities that Whittaker might exploit given his string of victories against tough competitors.

Skye Nicolson vs Raven Chapman Fight

  • Division/Weight: feather
  • Skye Nicolson record: 11-0
  • Raven Chapman record: 9-0
  • Belts at stake: WBC World Female Featherweight Title

Skye Nicolson will take on Raven Chapman for the WBC World Female Featherweight Title.

Skye Nicolson began her professional career in March 2022, amassing a perfect record of 11 wins with one knockout. She holds the WBC World Feather Title and recently defeated a skilled opponent, Dyana Vargas, by unanimous decision. Facing Vargas, who had stronger knockout power but still secured a win without complications, suggests Nicolson could handle Chapman’s similar style effectively due to her technical prowess.

Raven Chapman also boasts an undefeated record with 9 wins and 2 knockouts since turning pro in September 2021. Her last win came against Yohana Sarabia, who posed less of a threat than Chapmand’s earlier opponents. Chapman will face a significant step-up in competition against Nicolson; however, her consistent performance across previous bouts indicates readiness for this challenge. Both fighters share an orthodox stance, potentially making the fight competitive due to similar styles.

Mohammed Alakel vs Jesus Gonzalez Fight

  • Division/Weight: bantam
  • Mohammed Alakel record: 0-0
  • Jesus Gonzalez record: 3-2
  • Belts at stake: N/A

Mohammed Alakel faces Jesus Gonzalez in a bantamweight clash with no titles on the line.

Jesus Gonzalez started his professional career in 2023, currently holding a modest record of 3 wins and 2 losses without any knockouts. Recently, he faced defeat against Ibraheem Sulaimaan by TKO.
