Who is Cleverly facing? isn`t the title vacant now?

Maybe Frank is very confident in Cleverly. He does allow his guys to travel if he favours them heavilly ... especially if they aren`t big ticket sellers like Cleverly.

cleverly is an ambitious kid and he won't be held back like most of wazza's fighters. suprised wazza didnt get it for december 5th on khan vs salita undercard. don't be suprised if you see cleverly leaving allegedly in a couple of year's like all warren's top fighters do :lol:

I’d heard he wasn’t much of a ticket seller. How many is `a good little Welsh following`?

Calzaghe also struggled to sell tickets for the best part of his career - I’d heard Nathan was the same?

Not the Polish Adamek the Italian beat. I think he could sell tickets in Wales but he not got the chance!

This guys last fight was a first round loss for the European title. Surely he can't be challenging for it again? :witzend: :oo

Another shambles if this guy gets a title shot. I'm sure it's getting worse! He's lost to anyone that he's faced who is half decent and got stopped in the first round last time out.

It would be good for Cleverly to travel, to help prepare him for if he has to do so on a bigger occasion in the future.

indeed we dont want him to stay at home for most of his career and go on away turf as he's winding down it would be good for him to break germany or america

Warren must have confidence in Clev sending him out to Italy.

I see Clev winning outboxing him and stopping him in the middle rounds Cleverly seems to be getting better with every fight and his power is coming along nicely
