Cleverly vs Makabu

[bigcursedawg]

Boxrec has Junior Makabu vs Nathan Cleverly on Feb 1st 2014 as the co main event for Golovkin vs Adama. I don't know how many of you have seen Makabu but I have a feeling he's going to pummel Cleverly. Makabu might be small for cruiser but he's a devastating puncher and I don't think Nathan is going to fair any better against bigger men.

What do think about this move from Cleverly?

Not a wise move by Nathan, if true.

Edit: I thought Cleverly was co-headlining a Frank Warren event on 15 Feb?

It's gotta be a mistake, they also have him fighting 2 weeks later. Makabu is a ******ed fight for him, but then so was Kovalev

It might not be official, but it's listed on boxrec. Makabu was supposed to fight some polish guy for some interm wba strap, but I noticed a few days ago his opponent was tba. So checked today and this bout was on there.

One of the fights is probably going to get canceled I guess.

What?
For the interim WBA belt too?
What a freaking joke... this card is a WBA circus.
Anyway...not good for Cleverly

That is great news. No doubt the biased British will not of heard of Makabu and think hes a bum beater with a padded record and will lump on Cleverly.

Makabu will end Cleverlys career.

Easy money!

I'd love to see your boy Chakhkiev and Makabu face each other somewhere down the line. It would be a explosive battle at cruiser
