    Cleverly has never been the same since he got Krushed. The Krusher stole his soul and destroyed his self-confidence. To my surprise, he did manage to regain some of it against Fonfara and he fought very gallantly and displayed incredible heart. However, he also fought like a damn fool. He let his machismo override his brains and he ended up taking a horrible amount of punishment and losing a fight he clearly could've won IMO had he fought a bit smarter. I favour Jack in this one.

    Jack UD.... 116-112 117-111 type of decision... Clev won't be completely outclassed, but he'll lose decisively.

    Cleverly will slap box his way to a UD.

    Jack decision, Clev has no power and will come forward to him, perfect style for Jack.

    I never rated clev like so many did from early on.

    Everyone was clinching at hopes he was the next Joe, but he never was going to be.

    And i say that as a fellow countryman. Sad, but true...

    Jack stops clev in good fashion!

    Jack will be very strong at LHW too strong for nat.stoppage in about 8 or 9 rnds.

    Cleverly will dominate Jack to a wide UD, face the reality Jack's last 3 fights were basically draws against a guy that got brutally KO'd by Eleider Alvarez, went life and death with Porky Medina and 2 time KO victim Groves. Cleverly's chin is too good, he is too big and his work rate too high, he will be too much for Jack in his debut at LHW.

    Where would you get that idea? He wasn't particularly strong at SMW which is a shithole of a division, the monsters at LHW will violently devour him.

    Agreed. Clev gets busted up instead of moving. He stands toe 2 toe instead of boxing too much
