    most stevenson haters are unrealistic that stevenson is more than average in the ring though.

    you probably yourself are realistic.

    high 5!

    It was close, but pretty clear to me. I had Cleverly up 5-4 heading to the 10th. Fonfara swept the last 3. Cleverly fought tough and fought his fight, snd made Fonfara fight his fight early. A lil too much pitter patter from Cleverly for me, but you gotta play to your strengths. Cleverly showed good cheen. Too bad he lacks pop, he'd do some real damage at LHW.

    Andre Ward embarrasses Stevenson quite badly too. Would be an interesting fight to see him in there with Pascal too, but would expect Stevenson to win.

    George has suffered from hand problems quite a lot I think.

    Cleverly's name is a misnomer, because he's really not that smart in the ring. He just stands in the pocket for no reason, eating shots, giving away rounds - when he could just move away behind a jab. He doesn't clinch, doesn't use his legs, doesn't finish rounds strong. It's like he has no understanding of ring tactics. He doesn't hit hard enough to succeed with this style at the higher level of competition.

    Watch the 10th round again. That's not a swept kind of round.

    And, I think with the number of close rounds in the fight (and close rounds that you noted on the card) that a two round swing is hardly out of the realm of possibility.

    People should really calm the hell down and understand the concept of "swing rounds".

    Someone tell this Donovan fella that this is the main event and people actually paid to watch this fight.
