    Now why would he do that when he can study for his Masters and carry on with boxing part-time as an hobby?

    I'd favour the Top 6 to beat him. Diaconu as well probably.

    Perhaps he's not good enough to do an MA. He could end up getting a 2:2 or something. Plus, he could do that part time, and be a full time boxer. I don't really see why he'd want to do it the other way around.

    I've not seen much of Vyacheslav Uzelkov so cant comment.

    Of the rest, he beats none of them.

    Yet...

    why would you keep him away from Cloud?

    To me cloud is nothing but a crude banger, he is Jeff Lacy 2. Clev has the perfect style for him.

    Why ain't Campillo in there?!?!?!?!?

    Maybe Diaconu, who is as bog-standard aggressive as they come.

    Cloud is fairly fast though, and do you really thibk Clev can do better than Woods, who was fair more experienced and proven?

    I don't think he can, he's also far too hittable himself, and Woods was equipped with an ATG British chin, something we don't know whether Clev posseses yet.

    Nah, he's better than just a 'crude banger' IMO - he has a decent jab and has a very high workrate (I think he threw over 1,000 punches against Woods).

    Cleverly is just not ready for him yet, or any of the other elite light-heavies IMO.

    Dont rate Dianconu one bit.....I think Clev can handle him as well as Pascal did as long as he doesnt get caught trading with him....his boxing ability would take him to a decision in that fight....

    Murat would be a hard fight for him....50-50 that one.

    No idea who the Ukrainian is but I feel the rest beat him at this stage.....Cleverly is still 18 months away from a world title shot IMO

    I missed the Clev fight (was doing Godfather duties).

    I take it he looked good, what with the proliferation of spastic threads on the subject (not this one btw).
