nathan cleverly to fight for wbo interim title.

[arzilo2]

i read in the allegedly column in the sun today and he wrote cleverly is to fight fr the wbo light heavyweight interim title. but he didnt say when.

Interesting, but an obvious move by allegedly. That "title" is presently vacant. Here's the latest WBO rankings. I wonder who he would fight for it. Isaac Chilemba perhaps?

Champ JUERGEN BRAEHMER GER
Interim - vacant
1 Bernard Hopkins USA
2 Karo Murat (Int-Cont) GER
3 Nathan Cleverly GB
4 Vyacheslav Uzelkov UKR
5 Isaac Chilemba MAL
6 Mariano Nicolas Plotinsky ARG
7 Gabriel Campillo SPN
8 Alejandro Lakatus (WBO Europe) SPN
9 Chris Henry USA
10 Soulan Pownceby (Asia-Pacific) USA
11 Vikapita Meroro (WBO Africa) NAM
12 Aleksy Kuziemski POL
13 Dmitry Sukhotsky RUS
14 Tim Bell (Oriental) AUST
15 Vitaliy Rusal UKR

How come Erdei isn't ranked?

[bfchunk]

Rankings hardly ever make complete sense.

The other advantage of this move is if Braehmer does get sent down then the Interim Champ would step in.

Pie in the sky stuff but logic would suggest Cleverly would fight the #1, who is Hopkins. Rumours of discontent between Hopkins and Golden Boy according to fightnews.

Hopkins could be available. Warren could try to set up a fight with a big name, who looked bloody awful last time out.

theres no way cleverly would fight hopkins

theres no way cleverly would fight hopkins

more chance of rocking horse 5hit

[Coco]

FW let Khan fight MAB, timing is everything!!

[Autobarn]

don't think hopkins would be interested.

Vyacheslav Uzelkov is fighting WBA champ shumenov, so that would rule him out.

That was one funny thread

[stujones]

So a vacant WBO interim title fight.

Here is a question.

Is Cleverly the only British fighter to go the "traditional route" to achieve a world title - winning the major stepping stone belts and actually never WIN the title of a champion. Surely the answer is yes to that.

Sad thing is, he is actually good - but it is like no one has faith in him.

Frank, instead of Cleverly fighting for paper interim titles. Make the fight the UK public want's to see. Nathan Cleverly vs Tony Bellew.

For The British, European, Commewealth and make it a WBO Title Elimantor. Plus both have unbeaten records and both have bad blood. So there's a lot to fight for.

Get it on...........

Never gonna happen! Bellew looks good but he is a couple levels below Cleverley at the moment.

There was. I saw one guy getting battered. Security turned up and they just threw out the guy who got beaten up, got a cleaner to wipe up the blood and let the attacker sit back down with his group of thug mates. Seemed to me like the security guys knew the attacker and were scared of him.

Yeah there doesn't appear to be bad blood at all, just a friendly but competitive rivalry.

Definite respect!! I just wanna bely him on the chin that's all...

[Autobarn]

isn't this how it works:

cleverly moves up, and bellew can fight for the british and european titles when he has the ranking/if the right offer is made?

i don't think it would be seen as good business matching two on the way up, from the same stable.

clev is a level or two above bomber, bellew hasn't fought anybody really and clev cleaned up domestically and got a ebu title, no doubt bomber will be fighting for clev's vacant european title...wazza will make sure of that

[BigEars]

I'm guessing it will end up being Isaac Chilemba, he looks like an opponent that would satisfy Warren.

[taffytoon]

Rumour is the fight will take place at the end of May or Early June in Cardiff.
