    'can't see him coming back'

    Are you mental?

    That is one loss.

    He has just had his level of opposition exposed.

    He has been fighting 3rd rate contenders and getting away with ****. Tonight he got found out.

    He should come back better from that.

    Enzo would be the wrong fight next.

    Vince is probably crying for the re-match which would be a huge mistake.

    They need to re-group.

    No chance do they want a rematch anytime in the next 36 months.

    Clev simply stepped up and it ever paid off, Dean is one of the best matchmakers in the buisness

    Massive gamble, you know fine well had clev won the fight it would be due to Kovalev being a hype job though.

    well said sikeside.I am amazed how many people think one fight is a career.We also forget in pro sport fans promoters etc will always move on to the next prospect,there is always another Clev or Price.

    They all knew what they were getting themselves in for. Kovalev was the favourite for a reason. This is hardly Price v Thompson or Khan v Prescott, which were matchmaking howlers.

    How was it horrible matchmaking??? Clev was a world champ so should face the worlds best no?? Im sure i've seen you before trolling Ricky Burns threads crying about his opponents:think

    Difference is Burns has beaten fighters of a much better level than the bums Cleverly has faced.

    He was a paper champion and we all knew it.

    A paper champion that wasnt even worth the paper it was written on.

    I understand but at least he took a shot at an enourmously dangerous opponent so no need to have a go at dan powell imo. Would you rather he fought an overweight estonian. He got beat but **** it im sure he will come again.

    If I remember khan asked for Prescott, price asked for Thompson and I'm sure in a interview today someone said Clev wanted this guy, so no excuses through time we all get beat by a better fighter on the night

    if a fighter asks for the fight he must take responsibility for his actions

    yeah i dont see why frank, vince or dean powell should get the blame, clev was talking about the hopkins fight this was the route to it, it didnt come off
