Nathan Cleverly would beat Hopkins

Cleverly = Hype job = Warren

Story now over, live with it!

Every middle/light heavy in the world wants to fight Bernard, Bernard gives them purse money as well as a boxing lesson from an old man.

Bernard beat Calslappy, easy in my book.

Sit back and wait for it, what, by the way is the WBO? Would that be the Wouldabeen Boxers Organisation?

Alphabet and hype rules.

It does seem a trend for Frank Warren fighters to have a hell of an easy time to the WBO title. Anyone have some idea of how this started? I guess with the WBO being the most recent alphabet gang, it could have just been a case of the UK domestic scene being somewhat untapped at that point? It's easily the best in the world, but there have been a number of WBO champs who should really have only been fighting for the commonwealth or Lonsdale belts etc.

Its easy to work out, Warren just buys the lunch! (and optional extras).

Could be, that's what I was wondering. With the WBO being a new and fairly unreputable organization years back, was it just a of win-win cashing in on the UK domestic scene? Calling someone a world champion is fairly self-fulfilling after all, when they already have a market.
