Fabio Wardley has long been mooted as a potential world title challenger, but there have been questions regarding his credentials with the fighter having taken an uncustomary route to the summit of British boxing.
The hard-hitting Ipswich man rose to prominence having fought on the white collar circuit, before turning his hand to professional fighting.
He has made a mockery of those who played down his hopes on the professional scene, and knows that victory over fierce rival Frazer Clarke in Saudi Arabia would significantly enhance his credentials as he looks towards a potential world title opportunity in the next couple of years.

Big things have been touted for 'Big Fraze' since the heavyweight star burst onto the scene by capturing a Bronze medal in 2020 Olympic Games.
It's not all been plain sailing for the Burton star however, having laboured to a coupe of uninspiring victories during the opening months of his professional career.
However, he served a timely reminder of his qualities with a destructive stoppage of Dave Allen last year, on the back of a decent showing against former world title challenger Mariusz Wach.
It was against Wardley that Clarke really came of age though, showing his qualities, class and courage to climb off the canvas and seemingly, for many, do enough to win what was a true fight of the year contender.
An absolutely stacked undercard has been officially announced for Artur Beterbiev v Dmitry Bivol featuring some of the biggest names in British boxing, including both Fabio Wardley and Frazer Clarke.
