Nathan Cleverly to unify with Beibut Shumenov

[FinitoElDinamita]

I dont think Cleverly is all that but i wouldnt go far as to call him a bum.. Falsely advertised? yea..

He's a decent fighter, but i dont see him elevating his game much more than what he has right now.

I think Allan Green could go 12 rounds with him..

[Dropanuke]

Well if he is only worthy of the wbo and mandatory fights then he won't amount to much more.
If id had that belt I'd be straight towards Dawson and Hopkins etc to make an impact in victory or defeat.
If your a real world champion why not show it to those guys

If you had that belt, Dawson or Hopkins Brain's in the bucket my
man. Go for glory fuck the career then.
I would say stick to watching Rocky Movie's

[Dropanuke]

Yep I would have something to prove unlike chris eubank junior who is a British legend not world!!
In this day and age in boxing having one belt means shit especially wbo, I'd rather have wbf now!
To be rated or known you gotta unify!!

Wouldn't mind seeing this fight. I think I'd favour Shumenov but Cleverly can fight & I think it would be close on the cards

Interesting on your view on title's, it seem's you don't like the WBO?
Can I just say boxing is not all about title's,my man and you like the
blood and glory bit.?
Cleverly is a champ, is he not you don't have to hold all the title's at
once,as for Eubank Jr he is just starting out on his pro career.
May I ask were are you getting the legend bit from.?
Brain's in the bucket, my man you must have lost both so if you
need a hand to find them just ask.?

[Dropanuke]

I mean eubank senior.
My point is british fighters seem to hover around the wbo, in my eyes there are 2 belts WBC and WBA and WBC to me is more quality, I don't even class ibf as a real title but that's my opinion.
And it's not about blood and guts either nor glory as you elequently put it, it's about winning and proving yourself.
Why do I rate Carl froch? Because he has purposely gone out and Fought them all!
Cleverly could do the same but like I said he would rather be a mandatory man (protected)

The thing is Cleverly, is at the begin of his rein as a champion,age and time is on his side,
it's not about fighting the very best, at this stage in his career.?
As for belt's WBC or WBA,being of more quality it's not the belt it's the man that wear's it.?
Froch doe's not have time on his side age, and he take's far to many punch's.
Remember this game is about money, and there can be lot's of it my man so just think about
it.?

[Dropanuke]

But he could earn bigger money earlier by going to the top!

[Dia bando]

You can not have hard fight's, week in week out
the great's never did it.? And your body can not,
take it you will have a short career?
Yes fight the best when you are ready,but not
after20 odd fight's

[Dropanuke]

Ok what do you reckon a fight against pascal would be like?

[Dia bando]

I feel Cleverly could out box him, and it would
be a good fight 12 round war.
And one fight I would like to see

[Rantcatrat]

It's a great fight for Cleverly. Shumenov isn't as bad as Finita makes him out to be. He's the epitome of a decent boxer. Nothing special, nothing flashy, but he trains hard and comes to fight. It's a good gauge for where Cleverly's at. I don't believe Cleverly is ready for Tavoris Cloud, Bernard Hopkins, Chad Dawson, or Jean Pascal. He's ready for the level below those guys and this is right about there.
