Preview Will there be a trilogy fight between Johnny Fisher and Dave Allen?

Dave Allen achieved a stunning knockout victory against Johnny Fisher at the Copper Box Arena.

Known as the `Doncaster De La Hoya`, Allen delivered a fierce barrage of punches late in the fifth round. This win served as revenge for his surprising defeat to Fisher, the `Romford Bull`, in their initial match last December.

The pair are now 1-1 after their first fight ended in controversy

In their first bout, the 33-year-old Allen knocked down Fisher for the first time in his career. However, this wasn`t sufficient to secure the win in Saudi Arabia.

But in the recent rematch, the outcome was dramatically different.

Fisher initially built an early advantage and likely held a lead on the judges` scorecards through the first four rounds.

However, Allen appeared to be strategically controlling the fight and unleashed a truly devastating sequence of punches in the fifth round.

Allen delivered a series of powerful blows leading to a potential knockout of the year. The towel came in from Fisher`s corner right before he was knocked down, ending the fight.

With the series now tied at 1-1, will they meet again for a third fight?

Will There Be a Trilogy Fight?

Following the fight, Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed in the ring that the contract indeed contains a rematch clause.

However, Hearn stated that a decision regarding a third fight would be made “down the line.”

Dave Allen himself seemed hesitant about a potential third fight, particularly given the decisive nature of his victory.

He commented: “He`s my friend. A very good friend… I wouldn`t let [a trilogy fight] happen because it wouldn`t be in his best interest.”
