Braehmer vs. Cleverley & undercard. RBR

[Stuarty]

Pleased for Cleverly but I think this WBA 'regular' title just about sums him up. I can't see him mixing with the top guys at LHW. The weakest proper champ is Stevenson and I'd strongly fancy Stevenson to stop Nathan. He's just so easy to hit. Good night tonight but a rematch and/or some soft defences is about as good as it'll get for him.

[lefty]

I wonder if Sauerland fancy offering big bucks for a rematch in Germany. I'd guess not given how this fight looked like it was panning out. Especially given you'd expect Clev to get a bit better at 29 and Braehmer quite a bit worse at 40.

Wouldn't they likely have a rematch clause in the contract? Cleverly was a voluntary wasn't he?

[handsofstone]

Jim Watt would be having a field day with all Cleverly's arm punches

[rossij8]

Delighted Cleverly won after getting royally effed about from Braehmer 5 years ago but gutted it finished like that because it was a good little fight,i had Braehmer ahead by a point but i expected Nathan to have more success down the stretch,his workrate is phenomanal but a lot of pitty patty punches,Juergan's landed the more quality shots but it was intriguing

Rematch hopefully

This

Braehmer is a strange type of boxer not massive but good defence, decent chin (not sure he's been in with a top banger) and he's very punch accurate

[peter barlow]

I'm happy for Nathan but he was very lucky there, Braehmer was winning rounds there although it was close. The 5th was difficult to call.

A rematch is surely the best option for all concerned. Bit disappointing really was just getting going

[Keko]

I must say that Cleve surprised me positivelly, it was a quite good match. It's a shame because of the injury.

[shambles80]

I worry for Clev, he looks like a walking KO waiting to happen...

[handsofstone]

4th and 5th rounds couldve both been even for different reasons,4th both gave and took as good as they got,5th both lande next to nowt

Also i seen Cleverly in tears,has Eddie not told him this is only the Regular strap

[lefty]

Apparantly Braehmer has a dislocated elbow.

[ladnarf]

What were the judges scores I wonder.

[rossij8]

Did JB retire because he knows a big rematch PPV in UK?

Just putting it out there - its boxing

[Boxerbeetle]

I feel a bit sorry for Braehmer - I usually can't stand watching him, but the one time he puts on a positive performance in an entertaining fight and he gets injured.

[BillyTKid]

Pleased for Clev but annoyed as it scuppered my bet. Had Clev to win on points at 10/3. I thought that was looking good.

They tell themselves they're world champions.
Whatever keeps him happy

haha literally just said the same.maybe not quite ppv itself but it fills one of Eddie's shit o2 cards

[Horse]

Cleverly vs Hopkins?

[crusader]

Ya, it's a secondary strap, but after some rough moments in his career I can see why Clev is so happy. He's not on the same plane as Kov, Ward, or Stevenson, but this win puts him right back in the mix at the next level.

I think he was starting to break Jurgen's spirit in there and would've finished the stronger of the two had it continued. I also urge people to rewatch the 6th without commentary, as I thought it was clear that Braehmer was starting to wilt.

[Tanzio]

Cleverly vs Hopkins?

I'd watch.

Cleverly vs Hopkins?

I'd watch.

Horrible, no interest at this point

[crusader]

Home defense vs Erik Skoglund? I think he's with Sauerland too...

[Horse]

Horrible, no interest at this point

Why not?

It would be a huge win for Cleverly. Hopkins is a legend.

Don't you reckon Braehmer is gonna have a rematch clause in the contract? Obviously he might not fancy a rematch though.

[crusader]

He may well. If they do it again I hope Clev gets it in the UK....

Hopkins doesn't float my boat for obvious reasons, but I respect him

Hasn't he retired, when is his next fight?

[crusader]

Happy Clev, sad Jurg. Right back in the mix now
