British cruiserweights Jack Massey and Cheavon Clarke will meet in a 10-rounder on June 6 at Bournemouth International Centre in Bournemouth, England. The contest will serve as the co-feature to the previously announced Zuffa Boxing 07 main event between Chris Billam-Smith and Ryan Rozicki. It will be broadcast live by Paramount+ and, in the UK, by Sky Sports.
Massey, 23-3 (13 KOs), is a former Commonwealth and European champion who was outclassed when stepping up to challenge IBF champion, Jai Opetaia in October 2024. Since then, his only action saw him halt the overmatched Ivan Gabriel Garcia last November.
Clarke, 11-2 (8 KOs), is a former member of Team GB who won silver at the 2017 European Games and a bronze at the 2018 Commonwealth Games. He turned pro in 2022 after competing at the Tokyo Olympics and won the British title in his ninth pro bout. The 35-year-old has been outpointed, over 12 rounds, by Leonardo Mosquea and Viddal Riley though he did return to winning ways when he dominated huge underdog Anthony Hollaway at the end of 2025.
“Chev Clarke is a fight that really excites me,” Massey said per the Zuffa Boxing press release. “Everyone loves a domestic clash, and this bout, live on Sky Sports, will propel me right back in the mix for another shot at the world title. Zuffa has a great plan for me, and it all starts here.”
Clarke said, again according to marketing material: “Thank you to my team and Zuffa for getting this over the line. This is a new chapter, and I’m ready to show the best of myself on Sky Sports."
