Welsh star Nathan Cleverly is flattered by all the sudden attention shown to him by American rival Tavoris Cloud.
The unbeaten Welshman is currently in training for his WBO Interim World Light-Heavyweight title fight against Alejandro Lakatus on December 11 in Liverpool, but IBF champ Cloud has already threatened to KO Cleverly in Wales.
Cleverly said, "I don't know how Cloud developed this infatuation with me, but I'm flattered by all this attention, although his head seems to be in the clouds about fighting me!"
"He's saying that he'll shorten my career, we'll I'm telling him that I'll put an end to his when the time is good and ready,"
"The wins over Glen Johnson and Clinton Woods were impressive, but I'm a fresh young fighter and will only get better as I mature,"
"That's all I'm saying about Cloud for now, I'm focusing on my fight against Lakatus and I wish Cloud all the best against Flugencio Zuniga a week after me."
