    Hmmm, that's one way to read it.

    Or you could read it in the way it's intended, which is that with the style he's employed to date (hanging his chin out at all times and not having a defence) makes him vulnerable against big punchers.

    As he's not fought anyone who can punch yet, I'd say the jury is still out on his chin...

    Shumenov vs Braehmer WBA/WBO unification in December has been aproved. The winner must fight Cleverly within 120days according to the scene.

    Who has he avoided exactly? :huh

    How can a youngster (20-0) be top 10 ranked and yet have no defence AND no chin at the same time?
    With his defence, he would have been beaten long before now if he couldn't take a decent hit.

    Vegas never put Cleverly down, where did that myth come from?

    Clev v the winner of Braemer & Shumenov for the WBO & WBA belts would be quality

    I'm not saying he has NO chin. I'm saying that he is yet to fight a genuine puncher. My point is that i would fear for him if he employed the same tactics he did in his last two fights against a genuine concusive puncher, like Braehmer.

    I'm not a Clev hater. But can you give me an example of a fight in which he's employed quality defensive skills?

    I just think he stands a high chance of getting ko'd if he uses such crude tactics against a genuine puncher, which Braehmer definitely is.
