Nathan cleverly v Dmitry suhotsky for the WBO light heavyweigh of World
The WBO has approved Dmitry Suhotsky (18-1, 13KOs) for a mandatory shot at the full light heavyweight championNathan Cleverly (23-0, 11KOs). No orders were given regarding a negotiations period or a purse bid date, but the fight is being pushed by Suhotsky's side for the first quarter of 2012. Suhotsky captured the vacant WBO Intercontinental light heavyweight title in October 2010 and made two defenses of the title.

Well, he's beaten Kuziemski and Mohammedi, two of the guys who have recently fought Cleverly themselves, so I can see why he's been given a mandatory, but personally I'd prefer to see some form of unification bout, and especially with the WBO's history with not being that strict on enforcing mandatories, if a unification came along I'm sure it'd get priority.
Only previous loss to Juergen Braehmer, so on paper he looks like a decent challenger, but need to spend some time and find a video of the guy to make a judgement on him.

I don't remember if he went to prison or not? Maybe he's in the kind of scene that has Morgan Freeman giving it a voiceover:
"I wish I could say that Juergen fought the good fight. I wish I could say that..."

Enzo will lend his best to Cleverly and this will be an easy win for cleverly.
