    kuziemski wasnt complaining beacuse he aint a complainer, besides that he was just shocked. The fight was competetive up to that point, in fact you could argue kuziemski was winning on points, giving him also the first round. It was highly likely that cleverly would eventually win, but if thats the reason to stop the fights before they really begin, then why even bother making fights with big favourites?

    the nationality of the ref is irrelevant. american refs are as crooked as other countries'. what matters is whether the promoters have paid for a little exta security for their fighter. you don't have to be from someone's home country to get paid off. i didn't see this fight and have no idea whether homecooking played a part, but to say there was none because there was an 'american' ref defies logic

    Dear oh dear. It was an early stoppage but there was only gonna be one winner. We have had a problem with refs jumping in over cuts too soon recently, but to say that was even remotely within touching distance of ottke-reid is one of the most ridiculous things ive ever read on this forum. And that's saying something!!

    Exactly. The idiot who started this thread is an established anti-Cleverly troll. He's been at it for a while now. Is strange how people build up a hatred for certain fighters

    that was one of the worst stoppages I have ever seen. At first I thought there was going to be some kind of warning for heads clashing or something, but when they stopped it I nearly spit out my beer.

    :lol: That's the most idiotic post I've read this weekend so far (no guarantee it's gonna stay that way). Why would I hate Clev? Because when judges helped him get past Mohammedi I predicted that Brahmer is gonna knock him out? I just think that way mate, and after watching Kuziemski almost pulling it off I don't think it was far off reality. Or is pointing out one of the worst ref stoppages ever on a Frank Warren card where it is a regularity, is that the hate you're talking about?

    I acutally love watching Clev because he's exciting, and I'm kinda glad the criminal pulled out and didn't get the KO because the Welsh is good sport. I hope he'll have a fine title reign but I'm also keeping it real and expect a short one. I know, what a hater.

    Pascal should try get a fight with Cleverly. I think he beats Clev easily. Probably stops him too. Cleverly is a very entretaining fighter to watch, but his defense is horrendous at world level. And freakin' 6'2" footer fighting on the inside against shorter opposition. Use your height man.

    Cleverly is not world class. Diaconu would get him out of there fast!

    I'v formed my opinion of him and agree 100% any legit top 10 LHW would spark him out. British fraud.

    Not a fraud, but very much a work in progress. With such an open defence and such questionable in-ring decision-making, he's not ready for the experienced B level guys yet.
