That is a poor opponent but I can see why they are sticking him in there with him to compare with Murat. Can I ask what you're source is?
This fight has complacency written all over it for Nathan. First thing despite having a poor record he's got good punching power and alot to prove having given Murat a good fight. I smell an upset.
To be fair I can see why they choose him, it's purely done to compare the performances of Cleverly with Murat and as well as that he is also durable having never been stopped so it is another chance to gaige just how good Clev's power is now. Not the greatest or most exciting of opponents but it is a logical one.
