nobody has given Manfredo any credit......Spina might not be the best out there but this was a much bigger fighter and Manfredo beat him down.....easily....and after Lacy and Calzaghe's last fights why not? they didn't have the best outings......

Ahh come on starr, in any situation, if you win a fight your the man ring or no ring. Tonight he's the man. Fans will be fans

Kessler might not be good enough to beat Spina......still not sold on him yet......

All I can say is Peter did what he had to do and what was expected of him. We all knew Spina was on a lower level. I am not going to knock Peter. Too bad he could not destroy Sergio this way eh Manfredo fans. Sergio has a tougher chin than people give him credit for. Also Peter is a lot better in the 168. Still needs work but improving. I enjoyed the fight never the less. I hope there is no more bad blood between Spina and Manfredo but it looks like they did not bury the hatchet Spina was exposed

I think fighting at the lighter weight hurt Manfredo....It looks like 168 is really his natural weight and his power seems to have increased tremendously.....thought he beat Mora in the last fight.....

I like Manfredo Jr.

I still think he is going to get KO'd everytime he steps in the ring though. I can't shake the feeling that he is an overhyped bum.

I'm just a doubting thomas.

One things for sure, the second he fights anyone in the top 10 hes loosing.

I'm completely with you there. When I downloaded the fight and saw it was only 300 mb all I could think was aww god Manfredo is getting sparked out.

But he kicked Spina's ass. Got to feel sorry for Spina but as I've said many times calling him a bum is an offense to my rear end. :P

Serious? Kessler would annihalate Spina, I would put everything I owned on a bet on that. I mean there's no such thing as an absolute sure thing in boxing...no that's actually pretty much a sure thing. Wouldn't last more than five rounds. At most.

Just watched the fight. Strange but I definitely think the move up in weight has helped Manfredo, yeah he hasn't really fought anybody at the weight but his punches do look like they have a lot more snap on them, even quicker maybe. Maybe he was just too big for 154. Plus Roach has helped out.

Not gonna go nuts, Pemberton was shot to pieces and Spina is big and strong but has absolutely zero boxing skill. And Manfredo's legs looked a bit shaky going back to the corner after round 1. But he's fairly quick for a 168 pounder, and his right hand is pretty straight and quick. Still not sure about his defense, but he may be better than I originally thought, of course I originally didn't think much at all.

Starr is still saw over picking pemberton to KO Manfredo... :P

We had a whole thread trying to make her say 'I was wrong' but she never did...

Manfredo looked better than he ever has. I was surprised by the amount of power he had, I expected him to box Spina but he just took it to him and beat him good. IMO it looked like Spina was about gassed after the 1st round, like he had a huge adrenaline rush walking up to the ring and in the 1st round but then it drained everything out of him when it left him, or Peter's punches had that much affect on him. Either way Manfredo knocked him loopy, Spina looked like he wasnt sure he knew who he was after that last right. Still dont think that Manfredo is top10 at 168 but top15. I was impressed with him, Roach has done a terrific job with him. To me he looks like a new fighter.

I think I remember that, she went back through all 13600 or so her posts and found two occasions when she got a prediction right and trumpeted them as if she was some kind of top tipster.

2 out 13600 at my estimation is a 1 in 6800 success rate. Possibly the worst record of all time
