I still think it would be a very hard fight for Cleverly who you could argue has not really fought a truly world class opponent yet.

However it was more clear than ever that Hopkins cant fight at any sort of pace these days and has to slow the fight down by holding through out the fight which he never seems to lose points for I got to add.

Cleverly's main asset is him amazing work rate which could give Hopkins problems if he was alowd to work.

Also is this fight more lightly to happen now after Hopkins loss as he has no title now and less options.
