Unlike Lacy, Peter has a little defense. He can roll and counter and he will have a game plan. That will allow him to survive for while.

Manfredo looks better at SMW than he ever has. He's improved drastically in every area. He's come along way since the TV show.
I hope so cuz if he hasnt then this fight will be a farce with Peter getting blown away in no time. Manfredos defence is a big concern in this fight . No doubt he is game enough and will come to fight but that style palys right into Joes hands .

After winning every fight since turning pro it would be a massive shock if Joe lost to a guy like Peter after the guys he's beaten . I cant see Peter winning by lucky punch or points but this is boxing and anything can happen .
I just think it's interesting that Calzaghe fans are so quick to dismiss this Manfredo fight as a farce, when most of Joe's title defenses have come against fighters pretty much on Peter's level. If this fight is a farce, so are 90% of Calzaghe's fights. I don't know how many times I can repeat myself, that I'm not predicting a Manfredo victory. I'm not. Joe is clearly better and he should win easily, as is the case with almost every fight he takes. This fight is par for the course for Calzaghe.

I know what your saying and I'll give you a

He defended his world title against Tocker Podwill for fucks sake, compared to that Manfredo is a step up.
Thx. CC back. I'm going to take a few sadclicks when UK boys wake up tomorrow
Calzaghe is Welsh mate, most of the UK couldn't give two F***'s
Maybe, but the UK boys on this forum seem to stick together on issues regarding Hatton and Calzaghe, except perhaps the Scots, cuz they ridicule everyone :P
