          I don't think Cleverly will be able to keep Kovalev off him.

            Well, Cleverly does have the home advantage so him getting the close nod definitely wouldn't be surprising. Both guys are thinking KO though, and that'll favor the fighter with more power. If Cleverly comes out with a high work-rate, I think he'll get hurt in an exchange and stopped soon after. If he employs a stick-and-spoil strategy, I think he'll make it to the end. But, I'm not sure if he's capable of fighting like that.
            I agree, either that or he'll play durex and do a Joe Calzaghe and get a nice home decision by jabbing and running (Not that there is anything wrong with it, you fight to win not to please). But if he trades... Kovalev will end the night very quickly, he is VERY VERY heavy handed, just underestimated in power on the forum.

              Cleverly via SD in a hard fought battle, but he WILL be victorious. Hell, he may even UD him. Trust me.
              Cleverly is fast, has decent skills and workrate, but I think he is very limited. There's something about him that I think he just isn't special, or at least yet.

              I haven't even seen Kovalev fight tbh, I have seen some rounds in a few fights and he looks to me quite slow on his feet, even if others say otherwise. He has power which is a game changer because some people have power that a human just can not take.

                Cleverly doesn't have Calzaghe's hand speed

                  He's not fast on his feet, but he's very light on his feet, for LHW especially. And he gets a lot of power for not being flat footed

                    50/50 fight IMO.
                    I wouldn't be surprised if either guy got the win.

                      I wouldn't be shocked. Clev seems like he got a pretty decent chin if he can drag Kovalev into the later rounds he can get a decision, especially at home, but he needs to keep Kovalev off him and slow down his output somehow.
