If you hurt your hand, let me know, then swarm and smoother Manfredo with a bunch of smoke and mirrors and do the angry penguin slap on his azz and I will stop the fight.
Not to mention that Freddie CockRoach just left Peter hanging, on the biggest night of his life.
I was ringside for this and Manfredo lookewd really scared before and during.

Agreed but if he wants to fight anywhere near the top tier(which he has not earned and may never earn) he'll need to get over this. I'll give him one more high profile fight and then chalk him up as a choke artist.
He needs to show the public he WANTS to be there.

Pride I hate to become repetitive, but as we've agreed before if he wants to fight at the top tier he can only do so at 154.

Seems like that's never gonna happen due to lazyness so I guess it's kind of a moot point.

Very True.
Peter is actually displaying a lot of heart, strength and fortitude campaigning where he's at.
He's naturally only got the make up of a Light middle, so to see him hang in there with Lacy does stand testament to him in some respects.
Re: Has Manfredo's showing and seemingly new hunger changed any minds?
I gotta agree with Lefty here, when he needs to pull the trigger in the spotlight he doesn't. On smaller fights he lets it all go, but he needs Yoel Judah in his corner, to get a little more BAM BAM BAMBAM.
I am impressed with how busy he's keeping himself.

Yoel Judah is rediculous;D
He does stay busy and looked the sharpest I'd seen him since his fight with Spina.
Re: Has Manfredo's showing and seemingly new hunger changed any minds?
He really didn't impress me too much.I would like to see what he can do next though. I think a Bika fight would be great at this point.
Re: Has Manfredo's showing and seemingly new hunger changed any minds?
Manfredo-Duddy would be GREAT to see....if Pete's fat ass could make 160 again.
Hell even Manfredo-Lee would be a decent fight to make soon (once Lee gets his shit together)
I'd like to see him fight Allan Green or Andre Ward to be honest
Re: Has Manfredo's showing and seemingly new hunger changed any minds?
Has Manfredo's showing and seemingly new hunger changed any minds?
No. He's still crap
Re: Has Manfredo's showing and seemingly new hunger changed any minds?
No...... his showing against Calzaghe made a lifelong impression upon me.
:puke:

He went 10 with Lacy, but got blown out in 3 by Calzaghe.
Re: Has Manfredo's showing and seemingly new hunger changed any minds?
Manfredo could have beaten Lacy but once Lacy started throwing power punches Manfredo was shitting himself.
