    Fair play, dude. Depending on where the fight is held (if it goes ahead), work rate could prove crucial. I don't think it's a walk in the park btw.

    I just think Hopkins would be too smart for him and make him look silly, and fair enough me neither for Hopkins just think he'd win

    Cool, I'd love to see the fight, I think it's another fight away though.

    They'd taken the Cleverly - Hopkins off the upcoming fights listing on the boxnation trail on the main show tonight since this morning also - maybe it was meant to be a secret.

    Frank ****** stated in the ring post-fight that he was set to announce a big fight for Cleverly in the upcoming future. Expect this to come through gents.

    I just cant see wisdom of Cleverly-Hopkins. What crowd would it realistically get? Not enough to give Hopkins the payday he'd want surely. And worth the risk for Frank? Shumenov in Vegas seems a better bet.

    Well with the Calzaghe-Hopkins connection it would definitely interest a good bit of the public. Not Hatton-Tszyu or Calzaghe-Kessler style, but still a good solid gate I'd expect.

    6 sausages and 8 pieces of toast?????? In one breakfast??? I'm no professional athlete or as big as him but I'd struggle to eat a quarter of that!
