    indeed

    however looking at his last couple of fights which they had time to arrange he not fighting top level fighters

    i dont think its cleverly as i think he would happily fight whoever, just FW calls the shots obv he be happy getting paid,but expect he wants much more in terms of opposition

    serious question, George Groves fought Francissco Sierra in his last american fight, obviously Frank had nothing to do with that and he has with Cleverley's opponent who's opponent was better and more 'testing'

    Yes but by then he will be the unified L/Heavyweight champ of the world then going up to capture a version of the heavyweight championship if you are suggesting he is walking the same walk as Calzaghe .

    They've had since February to find him a decent opponent after Karpency. How difficult can it be to line up a decent opponent to fight for a world title?

    The names that have been put forward have been progressively worse. Now we get this Shawn Shark guy :-(

    But what should we expect at short notice, right?

    Oh and it's ok because he's lining up a big unification fight for next year. Yeah, whatever.

    I expect Frank to get a decent opponent at 8 weeks notice.

    We've been waiting a lot longer than 1 week for Clev to fight somebody decent.

    oh dear... at least he's only on the undercard and not headlining somewhere, I suppose this fight is for exposure to the US

    Can't blame Cleverly over this. This has all the hallmarks of Warrren.

    Typical Fwank/Dean Powell shite.

    This guy was deemed safe enough for an 8-0 prospect and now he's in a world title fight :patsch
