    Ehhh... He's moving at an okay pace right now and I don't think Warren is quite as protective over boxers not named Hatton or Khan.

    3 or 4 more fights and he'll be right up there as long as he keeps winning. Warren can't really hold him back too much at this point although I don't doubt he'll take the easiest possible route to the top.

        I'll be amazed if Nathan Cleverly doesnt become a world champion.

        The first time I seen him fight, I knew he was special. I honestly believe that if he's brought along correctly he will give Chad Dawson a good fight (in the future of course)

            The best thing about Cleverly is that he isn't in the spotlight that often. Just look at Khan. British media have followed him around from pro fight number 1, criticising every move.

            Without too much exposure, Nathan will get pushed along just right, and will hopefully be ready for a title shot within 5 fights. He always impresses me.

              Brilliant performance. Dawson is the only light heavy that beats him imo. Cloud wouldnt present him with too many problems. I would like to see him fight Glenn Johnson,perfect fight to really guage where he is at,but he is on a very steep improvement curve and just seems to get better and better with every fight.

                He's about four fights away from a title shot. He has some very good offensive skills, but his defense is poor. He needs a new trainer and needs a new boxing style, he's very vulnerable to straight punches.

                Cleverly is still progressing and I didn't see any improvements compared to his last fight, needs a new trainer badly.

                  His defence is poor. He doesn't have enough in the way of movement, both feet and upperbody. good puncher though.
