Thread: PrideofBoston...Manfredo-Bika

Haha that was a funny fight.

Manfredo got what he deserved for trying to fight at 168. Even those of us who like him know that he's no SMW. When the announcer said that it looks like the two are in different weight classes, he was pointing out the obvious. Time to hang 'em Peter. You were a decent prospect at 154, but you are just too small for 168, and if you are too lazy to make your proper weight, especially this, young, it's time to get a day job.

I was talking about this with PoB in a different thread. I still think Manfredo could be decent at 154, but like you say he's too lazy to even make 160. I saw an interview with him where he said something to the effect of "I could probably still make 154, but I like eating pasta too much..." or something equally ridiculous.

Did OK?!... What fight were you watching Lyle...

He seemed to have no Gameplan or purpose behind what he was doing, there was no lateral movement, he stood flat footed right infront of Bika who was obviously the stronger man...

Didn't use any one of his assests to advantage against the bigger man, what a Joke... don't know where his head was at.

I remember reading something like that, too. I can't really blame him. There are a bunch of great Italian restaurants in Providence.

Manfredo does not belong at 168, he should have learnt his lesson against JC.

Bika looked really sloppy at times, strong but really sloppy.

Manfredo has not been the same for a long long time

Hahaha!!

First time Ive seen the fight. Manfredo was pretty shocking. I definitely agree that he shouldnt be at 168. He should be at 154, and there is no reason why he couldnt make it with a little self discipline. He certainly doesnt have the skills to make up for it at 168 anyway.

Should probably quit otherwise, there is nothing for him at 168 at any rate.
