Looking at The Ring LHW ratings, is Nathan Cleverly the best LHW! Looks that way

    The top Americans are running scared away from Clev just like they ran away from Super Joe.

    Cleverly would eat Dawson alive. It would be Calzaghe vs. Lacey part II all over again!

    Does appear that way. Nathan has a formula that seems hard to beat.
    Also you would have thought that Shumenov, would have jumped at the chance of a unification bout wherever it was held

    Well hes beaten 2 of the current top 10, who were both undefeated.
    Dawson hasnt beaten 2 of the current top 10. Hes fought 2 of the current top 10 and lost to one of them.
    also hows it Nathans fault that Shumenov and Braehmer, both current top 10 fighters backed out? Thats not Nathans fault

    That would possibly be because Nathan is young and not completely drained at the weight.
    Most of Dawsons big fights are with old fighters over a decade older than him. His big win is over a 47 year old

    Bailey, Cleverly is a talent and i think he can make some noise at LWH. But do not mention him in the same sentence with Froch, i think Froch would absolutely hammer him to submission, he's far from another Calzaghe. And Cleverly struggled with Kuziemsky until the BS stoppage, so it might tell you that this Kuziemsky might be no joke.

    Cleverly would decimate Froch, lacerate his eyes with chopping right hands all night long. Cleverly outworks Froch to a comfortable decision 10-2 or 9-3 on the cards, though there may be a stoppage as Froch was knocked down by hypejob Taylor and put on ***** street by feather fisted Dirrell.

    Imagine what Cleverly would do to the gay paddy Ward if he trapped him in the corner. #RIPWARD :rofl

    Very possible.
    I think Froch would get massively outworked.
    In the UK we have been blessed with many top SMWs, so can compare Froch to the past legends. Americans want to rate Froch as the 2nd coming to boost Ward and try and forget that Froch lost to unwell double vision suffering Kessler coming off a loss.
    Now I like and rate Froch, but do think he is a slow plodding SMW who can be easily outworked, yet saying that, he had Ward gassing at the end and was getting on top at the end of his match with Ward, making it a closer than expected fight. I thought Ward was a close winner by around 2 points.
    Froch actually exposed Ward in that fight.
    Froch wouldnt have got as far in yesterdays era, but today, hes right up there

    Theres no way Ward would accept Clevs challenge in the first place, he knows that Bika's awkward style and workrate already handed him his 2nd defeat, theres no way Ward will risk a 3rd defeat at this stage of his career when there is such a clear blueprint to beat him.

    This Nathan Cleverley is the truth that's for sure. He would expose Ward, beat down Dawson, and he would pull Carl Frocks pants down.

    Here is highlights of Nathan Cleverly going life and death with Morrade Hakkar brethren Nadjib Mohammedi.

    People considering Clev to be the best LHW just goes to show how weak this LHW era is.

    Froch lost to unwell double vision suffering Kessler coming off a loss, this is quite true. I don't know how Kessler was even allowed into the ring that night it was a disgrace, yet he sissy slapped that phoney frock, who went and fought that garbage man Bute.

    Kesslers loss to Frock and Ward are meaningless, the man was a one eyed cyclops in that ring.
