What was Cleverly's game plan?

[PACnPBFsuck]

I don't get it, WTF?

Obviously the dude has KO power, if the plan was to whether the storm, then he never had a chance.

What are your thoughts?

He seemed to believe he could weather the early assault and take over afterwards. He was wrong.

Frank Warren didn't even seem to know in his post fight interview from what I could hear. Didn't seem to impressed.

Clev fell into believing his own hype and thinking his chin was granite and he got blasted. Thank God!

cover up, slip punches and hope he gasses.

Survive.......

[Clark81]

Any game plan he would've got knocked out, fact is, he's in Kov's league

[-PBP-]

He underestimated his power.

[Russian Crushin]

Everybody knew this plan, it just turns out a granite chin against soft punchers turns into glass against hard punchers

[EvilGenius]

yh I agree.... he really underestimated his power... Plus over believed in himself or in his chin shall I say

[TRTboy]

To weather the early storm and turn up the pace later on. Too bad he couldn't weather the storm lol. kovalev is a beast.
