    Not here, I don't mind Clev. He's a cocky kid who believes in his ability with speed. I just think he's bitten off way more than he can chew and has never faced a power combination puncher like Kovalev...who believes in his ability just as much. I also named my dog Nigel
    ive just watched a fair bhit of him on youtube and i agree he looks good

    he doesnt really seem to have faced anyone but clevs competition hasnt been any better really apart from perhaps bellew and morat?

    What gets me you can only win, which Cleverly has done but for some of you it's not enough
    I expect Cleverly to outbox Kovalev, if he has to go toe to toe he will as what I've seen he has
    a very good chin. Remember you knock Burns and Cleverly, they win what's wrong maybe
    some of you can't pick a winner, or better still just carry on picking your nose.

    Its def a good match bud. Both have quality assets the other must negate. He's not your sterotypical 'big puncher', has good movement but as cliche as it sounds he can be hit with jabs, even in the White fight he had a second where White was able to triple it up right before the roof fell in on him. Good style clash, fans win.

    Nathan could batter this guy from pillar to post if he actually chose to do it. The trouble with Clev is that he wants to please the crowd at home to much and fill the shoes of Calzaghe and that could be his downfall in this fight. He’s facing another supposedly unstoppable juggernaut whose average fight lasts around three rounds and he never had to make the fight. I wonder if anyone else in the division would have taken this risk. Nathan has a world class chin and above average skill and he’s going against a guy who from what I’ve seen is a bull in a china shop that could not move above the waist with a swivel implant. If Clev is swayed by the drunks and decides to stand in the pocket and trade well it may not end well. If he decides to pick his spots and box he could make it real easy on himself.
