Fair play to Cleverly - thought he boxed, er, cleverly and used his brain to make the fight pretty easy as the rounds ticked away. Will be interesting to see where he goes next as I'm not sure how competitive the commonwealth belt is. Most of the defences seem to be against Ghanians for other weights but can't think that there are likely to be many good light heavyweights from there! Would be nice to see a few international fights for a change rather than the treadmill that Sky has served up over the last couple years.
I thought Cleverly was awful, all he wanted to do was grab all night long. Usual biased commentary from SKY also, sorry, but Cleverly aint all that. Jim Watt, I love him as a scottish fighter, but how paid off is he? Cleverly holding for dear life, & Watt screaming "lovely" he infuriates me:twisted: In a perfect world there would be a 'COMMENTARY OFF' button, cos to hardcore boxing fans the commentary is more of a distraction than a help. & sadly enough, commentary sways too many people, as this thread proves. It has a brainwashing effect on those who dont have enough confidence to call a fight as they see it.
my stream started ****ing up around round 10 at which point i thought cleverley was just edging it. i was banking on oakey taking the last few rounds
