Will there be a trilogy fight between Johnny Fisher and Dave Allen?
DAVE ALLEN secured an incredible knockout win of Johnny Fisher in the Copper Box!
The Doncaster De La Hoya unleashed a BRUTAL flurry late on the fifth round to exact revenge on the Romford Bull after he suffered a shock loss during their first encounter last December.
In that first fight Allen, 33, handed Fisher his first-ever career knockdown, but it wasn’t enough to seal the win in Saudi.
But tonight, the tables turned.
Fisher opened up an early lead and was probably ahead on the scorecards after four rounds.
But Allen was toying with him and in the fifth unveiled a truly devastating series of blows.
Fisher secured a knockout of the year contender with a sensational left hook that saw the towel come in from the corner before Fisher was felled.
With the series now at 1-1, will they meet again?

Speaking in the ring after the fight, Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed there IS a rematch clause in the contract.
However, Hearn then said that a decision on it will be made “down the line.”
Allen didn’t sound like he wanted the fight either, especially with the way that he beat Fisher.
He said: “He’s my friend. He’s a very good friend of mine… I wouldn’t allow [a trilogy fight] to happen, because it’s not in his best interests.”
