Cleverly vs Fonfara 2015/10/16

Post by geronimo »

Very good fight in the light-heavyweight division. Cleverly will face an hard puncher like Fonfara. But, to me, the welsh man got more technical skills, and a superior hand speed. Anyway the favourite is the polsih man. I'd say 60% Fonfara and 40% Cleverly.

Have to favour Fonfara here but I think Cleverly will give him a good go. Cleverly has good skills but neglects them and prefers the more macho approach!

If Clev loses there's nowhere to go. If he wins then he's a player again. Would love to see him get a shot at Stevenson. He was unfortunate to come up against a special fighter in Kovalev, but seeing how good he has turned out to be Clev shouldn't be too hard on himself over it.

Personally think Clev is wasting his time being trained by his mate but hope he can do the business out there

Stevenson would ko him easier than he did Bellew.

Possibly, but only because Cleverly wouldn't run like Bellew did.

What airline are you flying Chicago to NY? I'm in NY for GGG and thinking about going to this. Tickets are really cheap ($50 for tiered seats right alongside the ring) on ticketmaster.com so I'm tempted...

Cleverly is done! Kovalev destroyed him mentally, he will never be the same. Not that he was that good anyway?
