Nathan Cleverly’s rematch with Tony Bellew sold out in just 48 hours.

The Cefn Fforest boxer will fight Bellew at Liverpool’s Echo Arena on November 22, three years after beating him by a points decision.

The original bout was at light-heavyweight but both boxers have moved up to cruiserweight since, with Cleverly eyeing up a world title fight.

The fierce rivalry and long awaited rematch has already sparked controversy after insults were shared at a press conference on October 2.

Cleverly responded robustly to Bellew’s claims that he “couldn’t sell out a phonebox”.

He said: “When I splatter you for the second time in Liverpool, I’ll be fighting for my world title in the Millennium Stadium and all the fans are going to be behind me.

“The only time the Liverpool Arena sold out is when I’m in town.

“He’s still fat and he’s getting put out. Two-nil, in his home town again.”
