Originally posted by kiaba360 View PostWell, 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.

Cleverly via SD in a hard fought battle, but he WILL be victorious. Hell, he may even UD him. Trust me.
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.

Originally posted by Badzi1987 View PostI 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.
