Cleverly-Braehmer OFF/My bet for sky box office this saturday

[Fenster]

Braehmer has pulled out numerous fights. He's worse than Tyson and Calzaghe. Should of seen it coming.

Clevery is the NEW WBO champ. Braehmer stripped. So Sky will still have a "world" title fight should a replacement be found

It's has to be confirmed by the WBO if his fight will be a for a world title. I'm sure Frank will be able to persuade them though.

Exactly. This is the Alex Arthur/Enzo Macc route to a WBO title all over again.

If Cleverly is matched they will still have a "world" title fight so will keep it PPV. Like you said, dealing with Warren is different to Golden BOy.

bring tony bellew in

hes training for a fight after all

[erics44]

I think DeGale will most likely stop Groves. Although it's not the mismatch most seem to think. Groves looks a fairly heavy puncher and showed some serious heart in that Anderson fight. Although the form of that Anderson fight should mean DeGale is too good for him. Haven't decided a bet for this yet.

no i think it will be close

degale really struggled with that french dude in his last fight mind, looked pretty bad

and by the sounds of it from his post fight interview he was putting the effort in

in any case i think anderson is a good fighter and i dont think that was such a bad performance

He is a stone overweight.

He says he could lose that if a silly offer came in but can't see it happen. I expect an unheard of European to be drafted in, instead.

[Cressa121]

They said they'er looking at someone ranked by the WBO. These are the WBO rankings (excluding Braehmer and Cleverly)

1 Dmitry Sukhotsky (Int-Cont) RUS
2 Braimah Kamoho (WBO Africa) GHA
3 Soulan Pownceby (Asia-Pacific) USA
4 Eduard Gutknecht GER
5 Marcus Vinicius de Oliveira (Latino) BRA
6 Tomas Kovacs (WBO Europe) SOL
7 Zsolt Erdei HUN
8 Kariz Kariuki (Oriental) KEN
9 Chad Dawson NZ
10 Karo Murat GER
11 Aleksy Kuziemski POL
12 Isaac Chilemba MAL
13 Denis Simcic SLO
14 Tony Bellew GB
15 Viacheslav Uzelkov UKR

If this ends up as a world title fight then it'll still be Box Office.

Dobson or Dodson?

[Fenster]

McIntosh is not allowed to fight even if he wanted to. He got duffed up just a couple of weeks ago. That would be shit anyway.

Any exposed British guy like Dodson would be utter shit.

Looking at those WBO ratings it looks shit. Even if they are decent it's a bit short notice. This is shit. Fact.

dunno

but to get any interest in the fight the need someone that at least the boxing public know or are aware of

theres no time now to build up another foreigner who noone in britain has ever seen fight

[armyash]

I'm going on saturday night this has took a bit of excitement away as i thought it was going to be a tough fight for Cleverly will be keeping my eyes open to see who they bring in.

I'm sure his last opponent was a late replacement and gave him all the trouble he could handle i'll be happy to see a tough close fight who ever it turns out to be and not an early round easy blowout.

[GuyIncognito76]

Oh dear.

As much as I want to see Groves and DeGale I don't think I can justify paying £15 for that alone.

No, Cleverly fight that they can announce now will be worthy of a world title fight; and the WBO isn't a worthy organisation anyway.

[J_C]

Im pretty sure it will still be PPV. The description for the box office show on sky says something like

DeGale vs Groves for the Brit/Commonwealth titles. Nathan Cleverly will also be stepping into the ring.

So its been updated since the Brahmer pullout

[JazMerkin]

Apparently he's got an 'eye injury' which hasn't healed properly. Talk of Bellew or Gutknecht replacing him. Thank god that neither DeGale or Groves will pull this kind of shit.

I believe he did, part of why I've got little time for him. It's odd because he's an amateur world champ with good punch power, but hasn't transitioned to being as good a pro as that promises imo. I firmly believe that someone around him has bottled it here.
