    Corbin is an old man. Was never good at light heavy either has beaten nobody and has lost to bums like gettin blasted out by Murat thats sums it up perfectly

    Clev is a fraud

    Clev does not seem to have the desire anymore, in a recent interview i saw he looked like someone who did not really have the heart for it anymore.

    He may get through this fight but if his heart isn't in it we will find out very quickly the moment he steps up. Personally I thought when he decided not to stay with booth who could have really improved him that showed he just wants to make a few more quid then retire, I can't even remember the name of the fella whose training him now.

    **** fight. It's clear they do not what to expect from Cleverly post Kovalev and are playing it safe not wanting to jeopardise the bellew rematch.

    Clev should stop this guy.

    I make you spot on. Clev doesn't want it anymore - he just wants a cash out versus Bellew at the end of the year then he will get out with his brain intact which is extremely sensible.

    Sean Corbin? He'd be better off fighting James Corden.

    Guess they want to ease him into his new weight relatively easily, Plus I think Corbin has some kind of wbc title? And Bellew has a wbc ranking so maybe Eddie is trying to manufacture some kind of eliminator for later in the year.

    Cleverly just doesn't look like he wants it, he just wants that Bellew payday.
