    The mighty Thomas Mann who is coming off some impressive wins in his five fight series against Roman 'Panicy' Vanicky, not least to mention winning the Slovakian super middleweight eight man tournament which saw Mann face off against his his nemesis Vanicky and win. (Which makes it four out of five which saw Mann against the same man)
    This mann could cause some serious problems for Cleverly and test that chin like Kovalov did.

    Or this will last two rounds with Clev blowing him out and then calling out Bellew proclaiming his power is back at light heavyweight.

    :think:deal

    <p>Iv heard from a reliable source that Clev is really up for this! Hes been in training camp for a solid 8 days and on a high protein diet of tins of beans and ravioli.</p>

    Clev stands no chance against this monster of an opponent. 11 successive wins, and he's the Czech super middleweight champion which is quite an amazing achievement.

    Joke of a fight... But he's just trying to stay busy I suppose. I think he's going to be in for a rude awakening when he faces Brahmer, who's extremely underrated.

    Considering in his last fight Clev suddenly turned into a punchbag, Mann is probably in with a chance to make history against someone other than Vanicky.

    Yeah, it's not as if Brahmer ducked Clev before is it? Oh, wait a second...

    Good point. People seem to think that Cleverly is a shot fighter, based on how he fought at cruiserweight. He was a great fighter at light heavyweight, and only got beat by the best light heavyweight going. I think if Cleverly can rediscover his old form at this weight, then he should be able to take Brahmer.

    I think Cleverly is underrated right now, but he shouldn't bother with punchbags like this guy. Stay busy ok, but this is bottom of the barrell kinda stuff.

    There has been a lot worse on these shores. Cleverly needs a tune up, and this on paper, looks the ideal opponent.

    Speedy - what kind of a nickname is that?

    Well he's a really week opponent by the looks of things which probably implies Clevs confidence is rock bottom. Get this fella out of the way and then fight someone like ****son or maybe even Big Mac (probably friends so maybe not) but if he beats a decent 'home' fighter then he might be able to hang with some decent fighters again. For me if his confidence is shot to sh** and his hearts not in it. He should call it a day. Fight Man>****enson> then look for a name maybe Dawson - lost to Carpency??? But would be a name and a boost maybe?

    Just a tick over fight. I see nothing too controversial.

    The only benefit of the quality of opposition here is that Cleverly will probably be in and out within a round or two. Totally pointless, would have been better adding him to the card at the York Hall tonight rather than ruin a rather competitive card.
