    I don't think there is a huge dislike for Clev. Its more that he's a bit boring. Even his mouthing off is boring and predictable. I don't dislike him, I just don't follow him, he doesn't really interest me anymore. I have watched 4 of his fights and he didn't entertain in any of them. He's like a more polished Bradley Skeete.

    Bellew on the other hand is a complete bellend with his public persona. He might be a nice down to earth guy in private, but stick a camera in front of him and he turns into a d1ck. Bellew I dislike.

    Perversely I do watch Bellew's fights for the same reason I watch Mayweather's, I'd love to see someone KTFO him and you know the smack talk will be bullsh1t but entertaining.

    I'm not watching Clev fight Bellew though, not even after the event. This sh1t isn't even close to PPV and the ******s that are buying it are jeopardising the availability of future domestic matches being available free to air. This direction reduces fan viewing potential for up and coming boxers by 80%+

    There isn't any 'dislike' for Clev that I can see.

    Seem's to have his head screwed on, is mature, isn't annoying and seem's like a genuinely nice guy.

    I can't fault the lad to be honest.

    I have a slight dislike for him.. because he was being hyped as the new Calzaghe.. and I personally hated Calzaghe., maybe that's the same reason others dislike him as it's clear Calzagheisn't very well thought of on here. Plus Cleverly is supposed to be this clever Maths graduate.. but he comes across as very dull and not the brightest spark if I'm honest.

    Isn't being dull in line with having a degree in maths,though?
