Their first fight took place in December 2024 on the undercard of the Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury event. Fisher won that bout by split decision, but the result stirred up some controversy. Allen managed to score a knockdown in the fifth round, adding to the debate over the outcome.
Allen brings a wealth of experience to the ring. He's gone up against big names like Luis Ortiz, Dillian Whyte, Tony Yoka, and David Price. The popular British heavyweight even claimed he "boxed the head off" Anthony Joshua in sparring.
On the other side, Fisher, known as "The Romford Bull," comes in with an undefeated record of 13-0. The Essex rising star will aim to make a clear statement this time around, hoping to progress further up the heavyweight ranks.
Former two-time world champion Anthony Joshua weighed in with his prediction for the rematch. In a recent Instagram post, Joshua shared his thoughts:
"I can't wait for this one. I rate both of them. Dave is more experienced but Johnny has a heap of potential. If I had to pick a winner, I'm going with Johnny to show his potential to the world. Let's go!"
Despite Joshua's confident pick, other experts find it harder to call. Carl Froch, for instance, sees it as a tough fight to predict.
The rematch promises to be an exciting affair. Fisher will look to leave no doubt this time, while Allen aims to use his experience to turn the tables. Boxing fans can expect a thrilling contest as these two British heavyweights step into the ring once again.
