Frazer Clarke has spoken after his destructive loss to Fabio Wardly in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and insisted he will be back.
The 33 year old, who is 8-1-1 (6 KOs), thanked his team and sponsors and made it clear that the loss he suffered in 2.28 of round one was merely a setback.
“So, guys, this is just a quick one, really, this will not be the end of me,” the heavyweight said. “This will actually be the making of me. I put so much work into that camp – so much work into that fight – I was heavily invested, but that’s heavyweight boxing for you.
“A loss of concentration for one second and that’s what happens. A massive well done to Fabio Wardley and the whole of Team Wardley.
“I also want to give a massive thank you to Saudi Arabia for having me, to Turki Alalshikh, and all the staff at the boxing; the ringside medical team, the hospital in Riyadh and all the staff there. My face will heal; my pride is dented for the minute.
“It’s going to take a little bit of time, but after speaking to so many good people – having so many good connects – it’s been a blessing, really.
“I’m still gutted, but this week we’re gonna try and pick ourselves up and just know that going forward we’re moving on to bigger and better things.”
