what if carl froch loses to arthur abraham blames it on cutting weight moving up to light heavy and having a monster british blockbuster with the unstopable nathan cleverly WHO WINS?
Last weekend was a good win for the welshman, but #1 at 175? Barely a top 5 guy. I like him to dethrone braehmer to become a legit title holder when they meet, but he'd lose to pascal, cloud, dawson, hopkins and maybe even johnson at this point. Karo is a german clubfighter and nothing more. The only thing about the win that was impressive is that he finshed murat inside the distance. If nathan was to be world class he was SUPPOSED to beat the iraqi. IMO clev doesn't have to power to be elite at '75.
these are the next 3 fights id like to see him have before the top flight of the division but would love to see him smash the cobra for running his mouth about super joe calzaghe 1. Gabriel Campillo 2. Jurgen Braehmer ( 3. Behbut Shumenov (WBA)WBO)
because of the manner he won in he was awsome from start to finish 2 more years and he will be the king of the division
Yeah, hats off to him going head first into a peek-a-boo fighter's punches. He'll go far with that gameplan.
Well who is there so good Cleverly could not beat them? Chad Dawson was getting his ass kicked by Jean Pascal who is b-c level Fighter.
Cleverly has just beaten Murat who holds a win over Campillo and is now in line for Braehmer the WBO champ, so you may get that wish. Shumenov seemed lucky against Campillo and lost to him previously, so id say Nathan has a good chance against all those guys, and I think he would beat them all above, and would have beaten Dawson pre Pascal with his fighting style he used against Murat
I've been saying Nathan will be world champ for the last two years - BUT... Lets be honest here, he's done enough so far to be the number 6 LHW and I'm sure he is quiet content with his progress. I think in the goodness of time he will beat any of the fighters above him to become the Undisputed king of the LHWs and a real pound 4 pound contender. Dan Rafeal only has him as No10 on his rankings - having beaten Murat who was 10 and because he hates ALL british fighters.
