        At last, Clev's reign as 'Champion' could prove useful and vaguely meaningful; only if it means Miranda finally realizes his ambition of holding a piece of the world title, which I'd really love to see (even if he'd almost certainly lose it immediately thereafter).

            I missed his bout on the Froch undercard, though.
            He looked good IMO. He boxed well, his punches looked crisp and fluid, his defense was alright and his power looks tremendous.

                Miranda looked decent he still seems to get stunned whenever he catches clean shots but he's much too dangerous for Clev doubt his ppl have interest in this match-up.

                Yusaf Mack,Chris Henry or Diaconau any of those guys wouldn't be bad fights like too see him this year on FNF.

                  Agree, he looked pretty nice, and certainly nice enough that he could pose a significant threat to a guy like Cleverly still. But, while I'm hopeful, as it'd be a great opportunity for Miranda, I'd be surprised if they dared to fight him.

                  Besides that, it was sweet to see him putting on such a rounded display, even allowing for the level of opponent (shame the official's dismal conduct in the 5th wasn't so pleasing).

                    I have yet to see Mirandas last fight, i only saw the last round. Cleverly vs. Miranda would be interesting. Miranda by KO or Clevery by points. In England Miranda has to win by KO anyway. Cleverly is not verry proven yet so you have to give Miranda at least a good punchers chance.

                      Seems like a good fight for the fans. Opinions are all over the place as to how this could end up. The mere fact that Miranda has a big name and fanbase in England should be enough for Cleverly to want this fight to happen. He could prove a lot by winning and may then get the bigger fights. A win against anyone else I see will not help him take the leap to the next level.
