More or less true. Winning every single round against Manfredo will likely change that though.

Beating Manfredo is barely gong to change that. He will be known some more but no where near what they are hoping. I still think that it is a little late in the ballgame for them to be trying to make Joe a name in the U.S. It should have been done 10 years ago. Dont give me this crap that none of the names wanted to fight him, there are other ways to get known besides fighting a big name (although it is the easiest and the fastest).
