Nathan Cleverly vs. Tony Bellew & James DeGale vs. Piotr Wilczewski RBR

Had it 6-6. Did think a couple rounds I gave Bellew could have gone the other way or been even. That was a great fight and a rematch or two is necessary. Cleverly showed he isn't ready for Dawson/Hopkins/Cloud. Shumenov might be a stretch at this point too. I'd set him up with Diaconu or maybe Pascal, then the Bellew rematch, then a unification.

 

youre gonna fit right in around here.

 

113-115 to clevs.

 

Pascal and Diaconu beat Cleverly easily.

 

Cleverly would beat the **** out of Diaconu.

Anyway, people get too hung up over skills. Who cares what skills a guy has? That fight was nothing to do with showing off their ability, it was a pure war. If Cleverly wanted to show off his skills, he'd have boxed at range but he didn't, he wanted it to be a rough fight to prove his 'machismo'. He wanted to prove he had a great chin and allowed Bellew free shots. Bellew could have stuck with his jab but wanted to hurt and stop Cleverly, so he chose to fight.

Criticize guys after a poor performance, yes, but to criticize two warriors after that kind of fight proves nothing about the fighters but instead, says something about the "fan" criticizing.

 

Degale Won 116-112

Cleverly won 115-113

In my opinion

 

Just watched tonight's fight. Cleverly would be finished by these two.
