Cleverly v a bird of prey.
Our man Nathan has his new opponent, so it seems.
American Shawn Hawk has stepped into the breach following the withdrawal of Clev's last opponent.
I don't know anything about this Hawk chap but I can only imagine the stick coming Nathan's way now.
Is it wise to keep ticking over or is this just another phony fight for Cleverly? How many more chances does he get before he fights someone we all know?
Thoughts? Or any amusing bird puns will do.

Re: Cleverly v a bird of prey.
Tino, I was too lazy to start a new thread so updated the previously. Comment below to save jumping between the two.
So apparently it's Shawn Hawk from the US for a title fight. I thought the bloke had to be in the top 15 for a title fight, but isn't in the list provided by Union. Another fast one from Warren or a real challenge? I have no idea, but with history on my side I lean to the former. Anybody got any more information on him beyond him being ranked 10th light heavy in the US?

Bad opponent, but Clevs management team had to wing it at such short notice.
High five? Anyone?

No criticism intended. It's much better to have this as a new thread, so more a comment on me being lazy!!

High ten. Good start.
I hope Cleverly has his wits about him. Wouldn't want him to be buzzard by a good punch.

Hopefully a win here will set up a clash with Hopkins, Cloud, Dawson etc etc etc...

Ever the optimist Union. I reckon it will set up lots of monologing about wanting to fight the best and how everyone is ducking him .....

Re: Cleverly v a bird of prey.
Tbh he is fighting on Saturday, so no-one expected it to be a named opponent did they
Warren is the one making these fights so I guess Cleverly will just have to wing it for the time being

Re: Cleverly v a bird of prey.
It may have the excuse of being short notice but it does also continue a theme. I can't imagine Clev is building the sort of name that he originally wanted for himself and I just hope that, when he looks back on his career, there will be no 'egret.

It is a waste of talon't for Clev to carrion this way.

An impressive performance from Clev will no doubt be met with raptorous acclaim.
I'm out.

I might go to this fight actually.
You will know it is me, I will be the one with a Go.S.Hawk banner.
Sorry.

Re: Cleverly v a bird of prey.
Joke fight. Just another bum opponent for Clev so that Warren can feather his nest.
If Hawk turns out to be any good I guess I'll be pheasantly surprised.

I can't believe that this has taken flight.
I think someone will certainly be left with egg on their face.

Re: Cleverly v a bird of prey.
I'd say the talons will be out for Clev if he fails to soar like an eagle in his performance.
Of course he can always say that it was a good egg-sperience. (too far?)

Re: Cleverly v a bird of prey.
Clev and his a management team have made themselves look a right bunch of bluetits this time round... I fancy Clev to get the bum out of their early with a swooping right hand... Maybe a punch to the solar pecks?

Just wren is Cleverly going to step up.
I hope Ian John Lewis isn't a judge. I've heard he can be a robin b@stard to visiting fighters.

Re: Cleverly v a bird of prey.
I feared Clev will be pigeon holed fighting bums for the rest of his career. But this Hawk feller seems a real contender... 6 foot with a decent wingspan.
If Clev gets passed him, I can see him flying the nest.

I don't think the feather-fisted Cleverly can become Warren's golden goose if this kind of nonsense carries on.

Imagine if Clev lost. Rich would be those who betted on that.

Clevery better keep focused or he will end up doing the chicken dance!
