He was Welsh ABA champ think he was about 17 or 18, he beat a lad from my sons old club, in the first
round, in the semi finals, then went on to be the Welsh Champion, if I recall it was at about 56 kg.
I can't recall his amateur record, but there was a lot of talk about him at the time, the lad he beat
from my sons old club was very good, but Cleverly just hit him smack bang on the nose and that
was the end of that.
He was sparing regularly with Calzaghe, remember Enzo and Joe rated him very highly, he was levels
above his opponents, sorry I can not recall any more information.
