Comments Thread For: Cleverly: There is Unfinished Business With Braehmer

CHAMPION Nathan Cleverly’s preparations for the defence of his world title against Robin Krasniqi have been upset by a stomach bug. The WBO light-heavyweight king, undefeated in 25 fights, lost almost a stone in weight after he was struck down with a virus. It is the second time Cleverly has been laid low by illness, having pulled out of last February’s scheduled fight at the Royal Albert Hall against German-based Kosovan Krasniqi. But the Welshman is now back in training and “feeling good” as he aims to finally secure a date with former world champion Juergen Braehmer. The 26-year-old faces Krasniqi at Wembley Arena in two weeks time. Click Here To Read More]

I agree with whats been said, he cares about Braehmer. He didn't look great in last fight and as the commentary team said, if they were Cleverley, they wouldn't be overly concerned by him. Cleverley needs to get his ass in gear with some of these fights. Hes lost all momentum to the point Bellew is ahead of him at Boxrec and hasnt had a competitive fight since Bellew. A fight against Yusef Mack in USA next to up his American Profile before a showdown with Cloud. Cloud = Jeff Lacy. Agree with everything except the bold. Cloud has already been exposed by Campillo. Calzaghe did the exposing against Lacy. Not a fair comparison.

Ah, these so-called mandatories... If Cleverly wants a unification bout, the sanctioning bodies aren't going to stop him; if anything, they'd likely encourage it.

Seriously, who cares about Braehmer? He's a bum. I think he's scheduled to fight Bellew anyway. Cleverly is a champion and should fight the best. In this case, the best does not include quitter Jürgen.
