David Adeleye vs Jeamie TKV: Start time, live stream, TV channel & undercard for heavyweight grudge match
DAVID ADELEYE is set to take on Jeamie TKV THIS WEEKEND on the undercard of a stacked Queensberry fight card.
They’ll both be eyeing the chance to claim the vacant British heavyweight title with a win on Saturday night.
The heavyweight will be a top supporting act for Joe Joyce‘s clash with Filip Hrgovic – who was a late replacement after Dillian Whyte withdrew because of a nasty finger injury.
David “Big D” Adeleye is an exciting British heavyweight who is known for his heavy hands and devastating finishes.
He has 12 KOs from his 13 wins but last year suffered the first defeat – and KO – of his career in a high-profile bout with Fabio Wardley.
Adeleye, 28, bounced back spectacularly with a huge KO win over Solomon Dacres in December to claim the English title.
The KO was one of the best of the year as he managed to finish his opponent after just 80 seconds with a devastating left hook.
He now looks to bring that momentum with him into 2025 where he is set to clash Jeamie “TKV” Tshikeva.
Highly-rated TKV, 31, most recently fought in February this year, where he claimed the vacant IBO international heavyweight title after beating Michael Webster by TKO.
He’ll be hoping to make it four wins in a row with a victory on Saturday night.
The two fighters are former sparring partners and enter the ring with plenty of beef after they almost came to blows after a radio interview on TalkSPORT earlier this week.
Earlier, Adeleye had said live on air: “I’m gonna break this guy’s skull, I’m telling you. I’m gonna really hurt him. Trust me.”
TKV later responded: “You’re just trying to be a bully. Really and truly, you’re just pretending.”
