The first to land a half decent combination will win this going by who the ref is.

I was making a point that if Cleverly wins in a legit manner I would give him the respect he would deserve, IE he will have proved himself. I'd like to think Cleverly's fans would do the same post-fight should Kovalev win.

And why are you so offended anyway?
It's taking the moral high ground because of the comments you've already made, and the assumption that that they will drone on hurling vitriolic, self satisfied abuse as you put it whilst you will 'say NOTHING'. Go back and read your comments in this thread and the other, you've hardly been gracious in your predictions.

I'm not offended in the slightest, why would I be?
There is plenty of evidence to suggest they would do that. Read some of the comments from the Welsh people. It's not assuming.

Why have I not been gracious in my prediction? I put forward an argument for why I think Kovalev will win early. What else did I do that wasn't gracious?
It's the very definition of assuming unless you can somehow show me how you know what they will post if Cleverly wins at the weekend? No? Didn't think so.

There's a reason Nate has been protected so far and Frank is now throwing him to the wolves, or 'rolling the dice' as he put it. Still not entirely sure what these skills are that Cleverly supposedly owns

Hardly gracious predictions.

And then everyone says here here. Sorry if that's not enough evidence for you.

That was ungracious and I felt bad about it, but there's nothing wrong with the first thing you quoted.

You seem to be right about Lianalew's comment, I hadn't seen it. You were still trying to take the moral high ground. If you thnk saying It's going to be embarrassing is gracious then we'll just have to disagree.

OK my tone at times has bordered on belligerent, rambunctious, cantankerous, but my style is inpenetrable, my approach impetuous. Lennox Lewis I'm gonna eat your children!

Sorry, got a bit carried away there.

Anyway, let's end this unfortunate chapter with May the Best Man Win and regards to my friends in the Western UK! (I take the moral high ground, they're stuck in the Valleys)

Just kidding

Can't wait for the fight. In this forum, it seems to be a 50/50 fight with Clev favored (at least per the poll thread) in this section and Kovalev favored in the Current Scene.
