On a huge weekend of boxing that sees two televised cards
from the Western side of the Atlantic, London hosts a big bill of it’s own on
Saturday night with world title action from Wembley Arena.
WBO light heavyweight champion Nathan Cleverley (25-0, 12 KO)
makes the fifth defence of his world crown against mandatory challenger Robin
Krasniqi (39-2, 15 KO), after originally being scheduled to fight the
German-based Serbian on Frank Warren’s ill-fated Rule Britannia show on March
16th.
In fact, the 25-year-old Welshman was first scheduled to
meet Krasniqi at the Royal Albert Hall in April of last year, before illness
sidelined the champion and sent him on a different path, to defeat American
Shawn Hawk on the Mares-Moreno undercard in Los Angeles in November.
