Nathan Cleverly. Being screwed by the WBO.
Have a look at this link.
BBC Sport - WBO refuse Nathan Cleverly v Robin Krasniqi bout
The WBO are screwing someone over again. Poor Cleverly and Warren are trying to fight an amasing contender in Krasniqi. Who has defeated such boxers as Hakim Zoulikha and Abdelkahim Derghal who you probably havent heard of but with names like theres they must be really good.
Krasniqi is undefeated in 24 fights. The last five fighters have a combined record of 70 wins and 50 losses so they have won way more than they have lost.
In my opinion such a guy is worthy of a WBO title. Why wont they santion it and do there job.
Warren was hopeing this fight would take place to line up a super fight with the winner of Hopkins Dawson. If Cleverly beats this guy he deffinately deserves a shot against one of those two.
Poor Cleverly and Warren. What is the world of boxing coming to.
Re: Nathan Cleverly. Being screwed by the WBO.
Warren doesn't seem too keen on matching Cleverly against Sukhotsky.

Yes he probably is , but as you indicate the WBO isnt a world title , its a fucking joke.
Cleverly isnt a real world champion , just like Steve Robinson wasnt.
How long is Cleverly going to fight british and euro standard fighters ? in so called world title fights.
Cleverly is mouthing off to much and doing nothing.

This time the WBO are actually trying to get Cleverly to fight someone of reasonable note. The guy the WBO want Clev to fight is Dmitry Sukhotsky ranked ninth in the world. Not great but a reasonably good record.
The guy Clev and Warren want to fight is Krasniqi, a serbian with a record of 37 wins and 2 losses, which sounds good but when you look at his list of opponents you will be ashamed of the sport of boxing.
Here are the records of the last 6 fighters he has fought:
1. 16 wins and 2 losses (not terrible)
2. 14 wins and 11 losses (not good)
3. 9 wins and 4 losses
4. 17 wins and 12 losses
5. 14 wins and 21 losses (Why bother)
6. 1 win and 11 losses.
The last 6 opponents he has fought have a collective record of 71 wins to 61 losses. He has made a career of beating on journeymen. So his recoerd looks good but is really a big pile of sh*t.
For some reason Warren thinks beating this guy will line Cleverly up for a super fight with either Hopkins or Dawson. What a joke. If this happens I am going to lose what little respect I have left for the sport of boxing.
Warren and Clev need to stop being pussies and fight real fighters. Not glorified punching bags.

I think the fighter makes the belt rather than the other way around these days.
For example Chavez jr is the WBC "world" champ but everybody in boxing knows that he is avoiding Martinez and the WBC are playing along with it.
To say Robinson was not a world champion is unfair.He won the belt on 2 days notice but I know it was vacant and not against a highly world rated fighter.But in his 7 title defences Robinson beat good world rated featherweights like Hodgkinson,McMillan and Mckensie who I know was coming up in weight. Robinso was also unlucky that he was forced to fight Naz who at the time could beat any feather weight in the world.

I agree with you the fighter not the belt, Robinson was a good world champ I feel and much underrated. In boxing most fighter's shoot the shit Froch is one and many others, remember
Froch down fall was his promoter he will never be a house hold name regardless who he fights.
Lots of people hate the fact Calzaghe, was a fighter the general public new not just boxing fans,
as for Chavez Jr is he a mediocre champion with a prestiges belt, Cleverly a good champion with
crap belt. Is that piece of plastic that important, or is it the man that holds it.;)

He didnt want calzaghes wbo he wanted his WBC!! The wbo would have come with it which he would have dropped that belt cos the guys that have it always seem to be mediocre
Froch is a hippocratic says one thing does another, as most fighters do as I said full of shit and he comes across as a cock. With his endearing personality you may think he's the dog's bollocks I just
think he's full of bollocks.;)

My point is that he wanted the fighter, not the belt ;)
If he just wanted the belt he'd fight Cleverly right now and be a two weight title holder. But he wants to fight the best, calzaghe was the best... Cleverly is not ;)
