Justis Huni has recruited Josh Arnold to train him for his fight on April 11 with Frazer Clarke.
The Australian’s first contest since his first defeat – via knockout, by Fabio Wardley in June 2025 – will be at London’s Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on the undercard of Tyson Fury-Arslanbek Makhmudov.
He had been scheduled to fight the New Zealander Kiki Toa Leutele in a rematch on the undercard of Jai Opetaia-Huseyin Cinkara on December 6, but the sudden, unexpected death of Keri Fiu – who he promoted to the position of trainer in the aftermath of the defeat by Wardley – contributed to their date getting cancelled.
Wardley’s former rival and fellow Englishman Clarke – who is working under Joe Gallagher for the first time, having separated from Angel Fernandez – will instead be his opponent for what represents a high-risk fight for both.
Arnold is respected in Australian boxing circles for his work with, among others, the junior middleweight Ben Mahoney and the middleweight Michael Zerafa. Huni – at 26 years old, eight years younger than Clarke – continues to be considered one of Australia’s most promising fighters and, to that end, as a late-notice replacement opponent was convincingly leading Wardley on the scorecards until he was dramatically stopped in the 10th round.
