Nathan Cleverly...Was there ever an explanation for his one-armed bandit routine?

Fixed! Looking for a 3rd fight IMO but it was that ****! Nobody wants to see it! Terrible fight! Terrible fighters!

Clev is marginally better but still useless.

 

a farce

 

Nath has been exposed, and should now stick to winning a euro or welsh belt.

 

Some fighters have more pride than to make excuses after a loss.

Nathan is a good guy, sadly, now nearing his 30's, he's struggling to make LHW, but is just way too small for CW, he's got about 2 years to do something again at 175', after that, it will be damaging torture on the body.

 

Massive difference between L/Heavy and Cruiser in all honesty Clev had no business fighting Bellew @ Cruiser other than a massive PPV wind fall so i can understand why he did it . i agree with Fnatic two more years @175lbs then retire as its obvious he ain't elite @ that weight either .

 

Such a strange fight. He looked comfortable with the jab alone in the begining and then just started leaning against the ropes doing nothing, Bellew stilled struggled really hard to land anything but Cleverly just did so little, so little heart and fight in him during that fight was hard to watch.

 

Id like to see cleverly do well but his head seems to be all pver the place

 

I guess Jim that's what putting on 20 odd pounds does for a bloke, to say he looked sluggishly slow would be a compliment i swear to god that's the last time i PPV either him or Bellew . ripped off badly there and i was at a party and watched it in he bar which made it worse FFS.

 

You paid for it AND went to a bar to watch it ?!?! did u draw up cleverly's gameplan for the Bellew fight by any chance atsch

 

Yea i'm one of these fans who watch the under card fights as well , no biggy i enjoyed that when i got home . BTW what's this Clev game plan business ???? first i hear he had one .

 

Correct the Kovalev beat down mashed his head up and after that i reckon he went into money making mode if he had lost to Krusher on points he would have stayed @175lbs and shrugged it off but the manner in which he lost v kovalev probably made him think " who the hell needs this ****ola i'm of to Cruiser to face Bellew as i know he can't hurt me and we can rake it in PPV " and the fight we saw proved Bellew couldn't hurt him imo , it's easy to say in retrospect it was a ****e fight but before hand all i was hearing was how much fans were looking forwards to it , also in retrospect the under card was pony as well but we got to see a few prospects have a run out so all in all i got to see half a dozen fights for what £25 ( i can't remember the exact figure ) .

 

I couldn't really say to tell the truth but the hiding he took wasn't a prolonged shellacking ( that type of fight ruins careers ) it was more of an "oh i just got my **** handed to me by a beast" sort of fight , mentally yea you are probably correct though . as for not being a cruiser that's spot on what's the weight difference 25 lbs ? too much to gain and obviously he had F ark all pop there .
