In their initial bout, Allen, at 33 years old, handed Fisher his debut knockdown, but it wasn’t enough for a win in Saudi Arabia.
Tonight, however, the dynamics shifted.
Fisher had established an early advantage and likely remained ahead on the scorecards after four rounds.
Yet, Allen was simply toying with him, launching a devastating barrage of punches in the fifth round.

Will there be a trilogy battle between Johnny Fisher and Dave Allen?
Post-fight, Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed that a rematch clause is in place within the contract.
However, he remarked that a decision on the rematch will occur “down the line.”
Allen didn’t show much interest in a rematch, especially after his dominant win over Fisher.
He stated: “He’s my friend. He’s a very good friend of mine… I wouldn’t allow [a trilogy fight] to happen, as it’s not in his best interest.”
