    Clev will be back. Just think how he done with no real trainer or professional set up. Hopefully he turns over a new leaf and comes back with a vengeance. Also I would very much like to see Bellew/Clev2

    He will bounce back, no doubt in my eyes.

    He said himself that he never worked on defense. To get to the level he has, without working on that department of your game is madness.

    hopefully bounces back, u have to realise that you just faced a monster, one of the hardest p4p punchers in a while its not a shameful thing to feel the full concussive effects of kovalev's punches. he didnt get completely sparked, he was staggered and beaten up but not ko'd clean. come on nathan sort it out

    Nathans a good fighter nothing wrong with losing to the best fighter in your weight class, unlike Mr Burns who stinks out the joint againts a fringe contender and moves up a class to avoid the best.

    Clev deserves plaudits for fighting Kovalev and hope he can carry on and have a food career. People forget he is very young and yet to peak.

    First thing you noticed when the Sky programme started was how much weight he's put on, especially in the face.

    Definitely has the talent to hold a world title again, just needs tweaking. Would definitely look at getting a new trainer on board.

    That beat down was psychological devastating to Cleverly.


    It's what happens when a fighter is fed a complete line of bullsh1t for years and believes it.

    The kid is feeling failure for the first time. How he reacts is down to his fundamental character. The juries out.
