On various occasions but only by average punchers

He takes time establishing himself early doors and is prone to taking a few lumps especially in the 1st 2-3rounds. But once he does establish his rhythym he is just about the most exciting light heavy we have produced in a good while.

Would be stunned if cleverly doesnt go on to win various titles at world level
That's quite a statement considering he has fought no one even remotely close to world class, the best fighter he has fought was a past his best Tony Oakey, Cleverly showed in the Fry fight he has alot to do and needs some sterner tests before thinking about world level and I would be suprised if he won one world title never mind various one's.

I think Tony Bellew would give him all he could handle.

courtney fry came to fight that night and for all his technical lacking is more than a decent enough opponent for cleverly at this stage of his career.

You can only beat whats infront of you and while i do accept he has to up his defence by the time the bigger guys come a calling, the technical aspects are all in place for him to acheive big things

Rate cleverly over brook as our best prospect right now
