Clev isnt world level for me. I think hes gone cruiserweight as its an easier division. Same as Bellew.
I honestly think Kovalev has broken Clev mentally.

No shame in losing to Kovalev. He'll be at the very elite level until hes finished.
Regarding Clev being broken mentally - guess we'll find out if that's true over the next 7 months.

Absolutely. Didnt say there was any shame in it, I just think he has broken him.
Clev has not impressed for over 3 years if you are totally honest.
He struggled against Bellew, then went out to the states trying to get with Golden Boy and that didnt work out for him, he lost to Kovalev and I think it could have been the straw that broke the camels back.
Hes not like most boxers, he is a very intelligent boy and doesnt NEED boxing, like some fighters whereby boxing is the only way they can put food on the table.
For me, and I could be wrong, his appetite for the sport isnt as it should be, he seems to be doubting himself which is a massive hurdle to overcome in a sport like boxing.
I hope I am proved wrong because he comes across a nice guy.

He was down after the Kov loss. No doubt about it. He felt he let people down.
One thing that i will say though is he's buzzing to have gotten everything behind the scenes sorted and can now solely concentrate on fighting. It may not come across strongly in interviews because hes a very laid back person anyway but his appetite is back. The break has done him good.
Hope the CCFC fans will get behind him as they always do.

The plan is to fight on May 17th, then again August-ish time and then Bellew in Liverpool in November. This SHOULD ultimately be in some kind of an eliminator and then winner will fight for a world title in 2015.

Yeah. Its all gone a bit unnecessarily public to be honest but Darren Wilson has been chosen as Clevs trainer. Nath feels comfortable with him and we're all looking forward to May 17th

Clev has now signed with Matchroom and as such will be back fighting on Sky Sports starting with the show at Cardiffs Motorpoint Arena on Sat 17th May.
Clevs opponent for his first fight at Cruiserweight will be announced soon and the bill features a host of local talent inc Selby in an eliminator, Rees vs Buckland 2, Callum Smith vs Tobias Webb etc
Tickets priced at £30, £40, £60 and £120 for VIP Ringside will be with us soon and so if anyone fancies it then drop me a message. No booking fees as always...simply the face value of the ticket.

Any ideas if Cardiffs unbeaten Cruiser-weight Craig 'the kid' Kennedy is on the bill?

Yes mate.......Craig needs a break out fight and Miles would've been perfect! Pulled out of a scheduled meeting with a back problem......Same as Brooks did also previously.

I must admit I don't know much about craig unlike miles, miles have had some seriously bad luck and hard fights over the years, hopefully this does happen though
