The British heavyweight title fight between Frazer Clarke and Jeamie ‘TKV’ Tshikeva has been moved to 29 November after TKV suffered an injury in training.
It had originally been scheduled for 25 October at Derby’s Vaillant Arena and will stay at the same venue, as well as be live on BBC Two and iPlayer.
The rearranged card will still mark the first event in a new partnership between BBC Sport and Boxxer.
“Jeamie suffered an injury in training and the medical advice was he can’t compete,” said Boxxer promoter Ben Shalom.
“There’s an extra edge to the fight. Frazer feels he’s ready to win right now and is frustrated at having to completely change his training plan.
“Jeamie will be desperate to prove he’s fighting fit and capable of beating Frazer.
“They have been quite respectful of each other up to now, but it feels like that’s changing as emotions are running high on both sides.”

Clarke, 34, will be bidding to win the British title for the first time, having drawn and then lost in two attempts against Fabio Wardley earlier this year.
The Burton-upon-Trent fighter – who won bronze at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics – has nine wins from 11 professional bouts.
Tottenham’s 31-year-old TKV, whose real name is Tshikeva, is also seeking redemption after his own controversial defeat to David Adeleye for the belt.
Novak Djokovic wants to follow sporting greats such as LeBron James, Cristiano Ronaldo and Tom Brady by playing in his 40s and help shape the future of tennis.
The 24-time Grand Slam champion, 38, reached the semi-finals of all four major tournaments this year.
Djokovic has been chasing one more to move clear of Australian Margaret Court for the most Grand Slam singles titles in history.
However, his last came at the 2023 US Open when he was 36 – the same age his great rivals Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal also won their final majors.
Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner won two each this year, with Djokovic losing to Sinner in the last four at Wimbledon and the French Open, and Spaniard Alcaraz at the US Open.
Every tournament exit has led to questions about his future, but Djokovic said he had no plans to retire and took inspiration from stars in other sports who have defied age to play at the top.
He told Riyadh Season: “Longevity is one of my biggest motivations.
“I really want to see how far I can go. If you see across all the global sports, Lebron James he is still going strong, he is 40, Cristiano Ronaldo, Tom Brady played until he was 40-something years old, it is unbelievable.
“They are inspiring me.
“In the next couple of years tennis is a sport that can be greatly transformed and I want to be part of that change.
“I want to be playing when we rejuvenate our sport and set the new platform that is going to go on for decades to come.”
Leading players are pushing the Grand Slams for a greater share of revenue, while the Professional Tennis Players Association – co-founded by Djokovic – launched lawsuits against tennis’ governing bodies earlier this year in an effort to force through changes.
Djokovic was speaking in Saudi Arabia for the Six Kings Slam exhibition tournament, where he and six-time major champion Alcaraz have been given byes to the semi-finals.
There is a reported $4.5m (£3.4m) in prize money on offer, with some players also likely to have been paid seven-figure sums to appear.
Reports say the winner could take home up to $6m (£4.5m).

Another shopper gushes: “This product has saved my extremely dry skin and lips. I love it.”
And a third chimes in: “My skin gets so dry, particularly in the winter. I love the versatility of this product. It makes skin glow and hydrates immediately. I use it on my face, hands, chest, and elbows.”

Though it’s worth noting a couple of buyers have commented on the cream’s fragrance, with one writing: “I was really impressed with the effectiveness of the Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant, especially during harsh cold weather. My lips were extremely chapped, and after applying it before bed, I noticed a significant improvement overnight—they felt soothed and much more hydrated by morning. The texture is smooth and comforting, providing an immediate sense of relief. While the scent wasn’t my favourite, it’s a minor drawback compared to how well it works. The packaging is also a plus—sleek, practical, and easy to carry around. Definitely a must-have for winter skincare!”
Chris Weidman and Anderson Silva will fight in a six-round heavyweight bout on the undercard of Jake Paul’s exhibition bout against Gervonta Davis on 14 November in Miami, Most Valuable Promotions has announced.
Weidman, 41 and Silva, 50, fought in the UFC, with Weidman winning both their back-to-back encounters in 2013.
American fighter Weidman ended Silva’s seven-year reign as UFC middleweight champion with his first win and both men have since retired from MMA.
Silva has competed in five boxing matches, losing two of those bouts.
The Brazilian, widely considered one of the greatest MMA fighters of all time, last boxed in 2022 when he was beaten by Paul.
Weidman retired from the UFC in January, finishing his MMA career with 16 wins and eight losses, and will be competing in his first boxing fight.
Paul’s exhibition bout with lightweight world champion Davis will be held at the Kaseya Center in Miami.
There are three world titles on the undercard, including Alycia Baumgardner’s defence of her featherweght titles against Leila Beaudoin.

The United States Grand Prix is the second race in succession to be declared a “heat hazard” under Formula 1’s rules.
Temperatures at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, are forecast to be more than 31C during both the sprint race on Saturday and the grand prix on Sunday.
This triggers a heat index which governing body the FIA uses to define potentially dangerous conditions for drivers.
The temperatures are out of the ordinary for the US Grand Prix – Texas is going through a mid-October heatwave that is making conditions more akin to summer than autumn.

For this season, the cooling vests are optional, and some drivers, such as four-time world champion Max Verstappen, do not like them because they consider them uncomfortable and flawed.
Williams driver Alex Albon said it was a “polarising subject”, between “the old-school and new-school mentality”, but that the cooling vest was “a good thing”.
Referencing the Singapore Grand Prix on 5 October, he added: “As a team we’ve done a really good job with the cooling system. It works well on our car, it’s comfortable. The first 20 laps of the race I was actually cold rather than hot, which was definitely a new thing for me.
“In a weird way I think we see it as an advantage as a team because if we’ve got drivers that are fresher at the end of the race then surely that’s performance.
“It’s not actually driver fitness-related when you’re talking about heat hazards. There’s a lot of science behind it. It’s generally just a risk, the heat that we’re getting subjected to.”
But Albon said he did not know whether the system would be necessary in Austin this weekend.
“Humidity is always a struggling factor,” Albon said. “Getting your skin to breathe with all the fireproofs that we have on our car and all these kind of things.
“When it’s dry heat, and this doesn’t feel that humid out there at the moment, it’s relatively comfortable for us.”
Mercedes driver George Russell wore the vest when he won in Singapore in hot and humid conditions on 5 October.
If the driver chooses not to wear the vest, his car must carry 500 grams of ballast to compensate for the weight of the system so he does not gain a competitive advantage.
The system, which teams can make to their individual designs, typically features a liquid such as glycol pumped through a tank of dry ice and through the driver’s fireproof top.

How to get Victoria Beckham’s signature smoky eye with pencil she uses daily(Image: Getty)
Beauty queen Victoria Beckham has garnered heaps of praise for her best-selling eyeliner range at Victoria Beckham Beauty, with makeup enthusiasts and celebs alike raving about its pigment, blendability and staying power.
This eye makeup staple has been receiving rave reviews from shoppers and remains a bestseller. However, it’s not just the public who are fans, as numerous celebrities have also expressed their affection for this eyeliner.
Claudia Winkleman is one known fan of the Satin Kajal Liner, swearing by Victoria Beckham’s eyeliner to create her signature eye look. Courtney Cox is the latest star to join the list of those singing the praises of this liner. But Victoria herself is arguably the biggest fan of her hit eyeliner, wearing it on a regular basis to create her signature smoky eye look.

Victoria Beckham herself comments on the liner, writing: “I love to experiment with colour. You see it in my fashion line, where I play with colour-blocking and balance modern brights with nuanced neutrals. I look at Satin Kajal Liner through the same lens. And there are endless ways to use these—along your lashline, in your waterline, create a wing or smudge it out. They’re highly pigmented and so soft and creamy.”
The Victoria Beckham Beauty Satin Kajal Eyeliner is available in a total of 21 other shades, including navy, bronze, burgundy, and more unusual hues like mint green. Shoppers can choose from matte, shimmer, and jewel finishes, and each liner costs £32, either directly from her website or at Selfridges.
The VB eyeliner is ideal for achieving Posh Spice’s signature smudged effect, which channels the 90s smoky eye Victoria has sported since her girl band days. It features a silky texture that glides on effortlessly without any tugging or dragging. You can use it to craft a precise, defined line or blend and blur it out to achieve a more effortless appearance.
According to Victoria Beckham Beauty’s website, you can create a sensual eye by: “Gliding the Satin Kajal Liner along the lash line and waterline. Use the smudger for a lived-in effect on both the top and bottom lids. Don’t be afraid to go for bold and experiment with unexpected colours”. To create a sharper, more defined look, “Maintain a fine point for precise application. We recommend the Victoria Beckham Beauty luxury sharpener, which you can add complimentary to your order. Gently press the pencil tip up against the blade as you twist the pencil to sharpen.”
It’s also infused with nourishing ingredients which suit all skin types, and the liner is entirely smudge-resistant and waterproof, so once you’ve perfected your look, it’ll remain flawless all day. The eyeliner has also been formulated to be vegan and completely cruelty-free.
The premium eyeliner guarantees “low maintenance glamour” with just one sweep across the eyelid, whilst also providing versatility and adaptability that means your new eyeliner can effortlessly complement any eye look you desire. And with grunge makeup staging a comeback, these gems are ideal for that dishevelled, blurred style that won’t shift for the remainder of the day.
And it’s not just celebrities who adore this award-winning eyeliner from Posh Spice’s brand, as the 5-star reviews keep rolling in. One thrilled customer gushes: “Absolutely in love with the Kajal liner. Glides on like velvet.”
Another chimes in: “This eyeliner goes on smooth and smudges great. Once it sets, it stays in place all day. The colour is really pretty also.”
A third satisfied shopper beams: “This is the best eyeliner I have ever used. It’s easy to put on and lasts all day. The sharpener is a great tool too.”
A fourth beauty enthusiast writes: “Beautiful colour and probably the best liner I have ever bought. Stays without smudge all day.”
Yet another reviewer added: “I’ve been using this soft, long-lasting eyeliner for a while now, and I’m absolutely hooked! The formula is smooth and glides on effortlessly, making it super easy to create a variety of looks. It stays put all day without smudging or fading, even during those long days. The colour payoff is fantastic, and it’s really easy to build up the intensity. And let’s not forget about the packaging! It’s sleek and stylish, making it a pleasure to use.”

However, one gave a three-star rating, commenting: “The eyeliner goes on like a dream but you have to be careful not to get it into your waterline otherwise it transfers under the eyes. I end up with blue/purple looking panda eyes after a few hours. To prevent this I have to apply very carefully and it blunts the pencil quickly. I never got this with my No7 kohl liner.”
