    That silly boy Lee McCallister was talking about fighting Morales at Pittodrie on Thursday before he got brought down to Earth with a thud last night.
    Cleverly is probably less appealing to Bernard than LM was/is to Morales.Unless Bernard falls hopelessly in love with the idea of becoming WBO Champion,I think it's tomato cans for Nate.
    I'm developing a strong dislike for Clev.And his promoter who gets blown by Buncey needs to stop conning people.How the **** did he deserve a "less taxing" fight?:huh
    It's HIS fault that he couldn't do a job on Bellew,not our's!:fire

    Irrelevant. Quality of opposition is all that matters. And for that he deserves criticism. But bear in mind he did sign contracts to fight Dean Francis and Juergen Braehmer, so it's not entirely his fault that he's got a ropey resume.

    It's annoying because Cleverly would beat much better opponent's than he's beat so far, I don't think he's elite by any means though.

    Do people not think he gives Hopkin's trouble with his youth and work rate though?

    Been saying from day one Cleverly is just not that good of a fighter, I can't stand him hunching over like that to fight a midget.

    It is odd that he goes out of his way not too use his natural advantages.
