Justis Huni outpointed Frazer Clarke in a heavyweight clash that almost collapsed at the eleventh hour.The issue arose on fight week when Eddie Hearn‘s Matchroom Boxing sent a legal letter to Gold Star Promotions – promoters of Saturday’s ‘Clash of the Giants’ card – and Tasman Fighters – Huni’s representatives – claiming the Australian was still under contract with the British promoter.GettyHuni outworked Clarke for a tight win on the scorecards[/caption]According to esteemed boxing journalist Dan Rafael, Matchroom is claiming that after Huni’s last outing – a last-gasp KO loss to Fabio Wardley – it elected to continue working with Huni and that his bout against Clarke was his fifth fight of a six-fight deal.As a result, Matchroom alleges that Huni fought in breach of his contract, which would open Netflix up to liability for putting him on the Tyson Fury vs Arslanbek Makhmudov undercard. Matchroom says it drafted an amendment outlining certain conditions that must be met for Huni to box on the bill, but that it had not heard back from the promoters.Goldstar chief Spencer Brown later told Rafael that that the situation “is very silly, very petty and it will be sorted out.”In the end, the bout went ahead as Huni blocked out the noise to beat Clarke via majority decision.One judge scored the bout 95-95 even, while the other two sided with Huni by a margins of 96-94 and 96-94. Clarke look much improved under new trainer Joe Gallagher.But ultimately, Huni’s superior speed and output was too much for the Olympic bronze medallist.Clarke’s career is now in a precarious position after securing one win in his last five outings.‘Big Fraze’ held Fabio Wardley to draw in an ethralling clash in March 2024 before he was brutally knocked out by his compatriot in a rematch seven months later.Clarke rebounded to blow away Ebenezer Tetteh in one round early last year before dropping a split decision to Jeamie TKV at the back of 2025 for the British heavyweight title.Huni then handed him his second loss on the bounce on Saturday night as the Burton boxer fell to 9-3-1 as a pro.Huni improves to 13-1 overall in his first outing without long-time trainer Keri Fui, who tragically passed away in November.The Aussie invested to the body early against Clarke, which paid dividens in the later rounds as the Brit’s output lowered.Huni made good use of a sweeping left to the body and some sharp right uppercuts in the clinch.MORE TO FOLLOW…
