Clarke’s decorated amateur career, which saw him claim a gold medal at the Commonwealth Games in 2018, culminated in captaining Team GB at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and securing a super heavyweight Olympic bronze medal, following defeat to Bakhodir Jalolov in the semi-final.

The GB boxing team collected six medals including two golds and ‘The Eraser’, who has fought the likes of Joe Joyce and Joseph Parker in the amateurs says his time with the squad has changed his life.
“All my teammates did fantastic,” Clarke told Pro Boxing Fans last month.
“The coaching, the set-up in Sheffield and that’s not just the coaches, that’s the backroom staff, the people that do the nitty gritty work that you don’t see, I owe them so much, they’ve changed my life.”
The Burton native has not yet confirmed a trainer or a promoter at this stage.
