The look on Frank Warrens face was priceless.....That should be a new credit card commercial

no, but it sounds like he was trying not to piss off the british people, maybe cuz he is more over there, as i have heard the contender is actually watched in the uk

We all knew this was a joke long long ago. Its no surprise that it ended in farce.

All it would have taken was a quick word with the referee "Did you tell him to fight back or be stopped?" And the debate is over with.

Good fight for Calzaghe really ...easy payday and all the US dreamers saw their pumped up loser given a lesson...shouldn,t have been stopped so early but just smacks of a fiddle.....Calzaghe got a wide US audience but probably wasnt to pleased with the early stoppage as he had'nt even warmed up....my Gran would have out a better performance up than Manfredo and she's been dead for 3 years ;D ;D ;D ;D

Hand Picked, cherry picked whatever you want to call it. Manfredo managed to crack the top 10 when he took this fight. Along with the paycheck, an unearned ranking must have been part of his consolation package.

Plus they had to bump him to make this fight appear somewhat legitimate, even though anyone with a brain could tell he was way out of his league to begin with. HBO called Manfredo "a hot newcomer." They aren't fooling nobody with their nonsense.

Watch the replay..Most of the shot's missed and not once was Peter hurt in that flurry...



I believe he called Calzaghes punches Pitty Pat

actually, nobody in the us really gives a fuck about manfredo, i would think he is more popular over there, the contender does bad here, and i would assume 99% of the people supporting him tonight just wanted to see calzaghe lose

Bad stoppage but wouldn't of made no difference Calzaghe would of stopped him anyway.

OK on reflection this fight was as one sidded missmatch as most predicted....

step up Joe next time as the loyalest of fans wont stand for much more of this ;)

i counted...

3 landed, and one to the back of the head, and when the ref stepped in the punches werent even hitting manfredos arms, he was dodging at that point

Wonder if Jeff Lacy thinks that?

Tc

i would assume everone agrees this official should be added to the blacklist?

Right whats next for Joe Kessler or if Joe got fight with Jermain Taylor would you rather see that ??
