Nathan Cleverley - Fighting for a world title....Really ??

Nov 2014..............Tony Bellew................. Lost
May 2015..............Tomas Man 13-11-1...... Won
Oct 2015...............Andrz Fonfara...............Lost.....

Shouldn't just pick on Nathan plenty of others including Bute !!!.... If anyone was offered a title shot for decent money they'd take it..

One stiff in two years with two losses and you're in the WBA top 10.....

No wonder Boxing is dying on its arse....

Who is he fighting?

Braehmer for the WBA......

No surprises that Braehmer is milking......

Give Cleverley a chance......But it's a poor title match..

Joke! Modern boxing though!

I'm genuinely more surprised that anyone even feigns outrage at this type of affair anymore.

Anyone who follows the sport knows that this title is meaningless. Kovalev is the WBA title-holder. This is the Quigg WBA title - means little.

If you're surprised at this sort of match, you'll be surprised a lot.

Cleverly isn't even top-ten ranked (in any sensible set of rankings).

Take away the title and it's a fairly decent fight but can't stomach the idea of Cleverley being World Champion and having to hear about "redemption" and all that bollox. He was damn near ruined by Kovalev and should have stayed that way

It's an Ok fight. In old money it would have been a solid-enough European title match.

I'm outraged and really surprised..

No harm to Nathan. If he was fighting in my garden, I would shut the blinds and call the police, to have him removed.

Nothing against him, but his career has went as far as it's going to go. I will not even bother watching this fight.

Fixed that for ya, Adam.

Least I didn't buy the Clev v Bellew fight...Two fighters who became slower as they moved up in weight..Even though that doesn't happen these days apparently. .

The worst PPV in history. The whole card was rubbish, especially the headline. Would rather watch Matt Skelton try and nutt Danny Williams.

Did 200,000 buys..

Not to mention fonfara got sparked in one round recently

But it should be a good fight

Forget about titles and worry about matchups
