    Your the guys with the using the logic that one loss = bum.
    Exposed for how good he is, doesn't mean he's a bum. He's got a lot of hype and expectations that he can't meet.

      all i see is people writing him off saying he is going to be exposed.

        I just don't see anything from Cleverly that makes me think he'll do well. His style relies on a great chin and good power, chin looks ok so far but power isn't really great.

        I know it's ' coming along ' but all he needs to do is flurry a few times and the fight is stopped.



        I like when he sets up his attacks with his jab and boxes. I think he'll be a decent world operator, someone like Clinton Woods.

          seems to be the way with a lot of British boxers lol.

          the division isn't strong at all. he will old onto his belt for a number of years if warren acts like he usually does with his boxers. cleverly could make a fair whack defending the world title.

            He will be exposed soon. He is agressive, not a puncher, no defense, one dimensional, nothing to write home about.

                Cleverly is nowhere near the level of Froch.

                  Nice guy has good potential but he needs to change his style and tighten up the defence. He leaves his chin hanging out too much if he does that at world class level he gets KO'D. Offensively he's pretty good I just wish he would work behind his jab and stop this macho man stuff.

                    He's good entertainment but a stoppage waiting to happen. He might not be the top man in his division but he is a decent test for most. Tune in and watch him, i doubt he will bore you in a snoozefest

                      He could go quite far if he tightened up his defence and used his jab a lot more to set up attacks, he is probably the most exciting light heavyweight to watch to be honest, he has very quick hands and if he gets hit he loves to just let his hands go which is obviously a weakness but it is good for us fans to watch.... Bellew has got a punchers chance against him but i think Nathan might box cleverly ( pun intended ) and show us all the boxing skills he really has....
