[MC Paul Barman]

Very impressed with kovalev, you get a whopper with your spoils?

If you would have been up in Milwaukee we could have gone halfsies on it.

 

[MC Paul Barman]

That left hook to the body that dropped Campillo the 2nd time was painful to watch.

 

[MC Paul Barman]

Makes you wonder when Cleverly is going to develop the nuts to fight a live opponent.

 

[Sunfish]

He is in danger of having the "fight somebody already" thread named after him.

 

[XCuTioNeR]

Bellew scared the pissed out of him, that's why wanted a big name in Hopkins.

 

[MC Paul Barman]

I wonder what he thinks about his opponent selection.

Is Warren to blame for it?

Couple of years ago I liked Clev and could have cared less for Bellew.
But now Bellew is at least fighting actual threats (Chilemba).

 

[XCuTioNeR]

I think they both know how limited he is.
Gotta blame both.

 

[Sunfish]

I like Bellew after that fight and the decisions he has taken since then. Cleverly is in limbo.

Most likely its on Warren. Look at the opponents Calzaghe, Hatton and the like faced when under him compared to the opponents they faced once they left. Hell, look at Burns' 130lbs title defences.

I like Cleverly and more then that his style means he's going to put on exciting fights with the vast majority of 175lbs fighters out there. The problem is he's regressing as a boxer and has lost the momentum that his run to the title gave him. I think he's ripe for the plucking when a live opponent steps in to face him.
