Kovalev vs Cleverly predictions august 17th

[Silkeyjoe]

I only just realised that generally the members on this forum hate and detest "feather fisted" none punchers. Iv seen it mentioned alot.

Cleverly is seen as a none puncher but he will beat Kovalev. It takes more than just power. Kovalev will be outworked and look very basic and over rated.

This will be a minor Calzaghe v Lacy where everyone got excited about the "new Tyson" facing the over rated, protected, none puncher Calzaghe.

Yeap, the people on this site hate none punchers.

Give or take a few posters.

Its an absolutely stupid statement for a true boxing fan to make. I much prefer watching a non puncher fight 12 rounds of action then a puncher come in a blast a guy out within 30 seconds. Pure and simple

Sounds strange given who you love

GGG is technically very good too. But you only like "American" fighters so it doesn't matter to you if he's good or not.

[Rantcatrat]

Guys, don't steal the thread to argue the merit of GGG's praise. He's got his own thread.

This is about Kovalev and Cleverly, which is a damn good match-up. Is it Cleverly's coming out party? Is Kovalev the beast that his last few fights have made him out to be? There are enough good story lines to keep boxing fans on this thread busy.

Boxing News | Cleverly trainer says Kovalev will be knocked-out

[Spicoli]

He sounds like way too much of the father and not the trainer talking there. Guarantee a KO...the pressure of Lateef f'n Kayode and guys like Chisora lead to that conclusion That's just goofy. I really think they might be focussing too much on what they think will be basic raw power and lose the fact Kovalev has boxing skill and killer set up.

[Fenster]

Any decent fighter Cleverly has ever faced, he's been quickly drawn into a punch-up. He's never used his size or range to his advantage.

Bloody good fight though. Either Cleverly gets exposed as the phoney champ or he gets a good win over a respected opponent (albeit one that's never fought for a "world" title like all Clev's other victims).

[Beanz]

Decent fight for the quiet summer months. If Nathan uses his speed and movement he can win clearly on points. "The Saddo Radio Show" that sounds like fun. Was it any good? Link?

Saddo has a radio show? tell me about it

[Fenster]

The radio show was back in 2005/6, can't remember how long it lasted, but the guy that ran it was from the USA called Danny something, and forum members would contribute (someone else must remember this?)

Quite ironic that these days every man and his dog does a boxing podcast.
