When even was the last time he fought?

Didn't he fight some American no-hoper in Feb/March 2012?

EDIT: He fought Shawn Hawk (ranked no.52 in the World) in the US in Nov. 2012.

This managed to completely escape my attention.

Frank Warren has lost the plot it seems.

Cleverly's time will come and when it does people will be quick to jump on that bandwagon.
