British boxers caught up in London terror attack all fine and ready to fight on Friday

Anthony Joshua's sparring partner Frazer Clarke was one of the British Lionhearts team caught up in Wednesday's terror attack in London.

The group of fighters and coaching staff, which also included Rio Olympians Muhammad Ali and Pat McCormack, were in Westminster attending a community event at the Houses of Parliament.

The Lionhearts were in the capital ahead of their World Series of Boxing match against Italia Thunder at York Hall on Thursday night, a fixture which will go ahead as scheduled.

Clarke wrote on Instagram: "Yesterday a sad, sad day for everyone involved. My thoughts to everyone involved and their loved ones.

"A long day for me and the team but we are still here and will return to our loved ones. Others won't. I appreciate the messages of concern but I'm fine and focused on tonight and getting my job done.

"We are well looked after. I (have) seen it first hand, still the greatest city in the world and we should be proud of it. #londonGB #sticktogether."

A GB Boxing statement read: "No members of the British Lionhearts team or coaching staff were harmed in the incident and all of the boxers and staff are safe and well.

"The boxers and staff have spoken to the police and security forces and are assisting them with their enquiries into the incident. The boxers are due to compete in the World Series of Boxing against Italia Thunder and are very keen to fulfil this despite (Wednesday's) events.

"The team is completely focused on preparing for the fixture and will not be making any further comment until after the match is over.

"The boxers, coaches and everyone connected with GB Boxing and the British Lionhearts would like to express their sympathies to everyone that was hurt in (Wednesday's) incident and their sincere condolences to all of the families that have lost loved ones."
