Calzaghe would clearly have taken the fight, but Manfredo deserved the opportunity to see if he could give anything to the fight....

Still, you are right at least we have no broken hands!!
What's done is done.....am I disappointed? sure...but I come to expect that with fights that happen overseas....right now Joe C needs to step up and cement his claim on the SMW division and fight Kessler...if this doesn't go down by the end of the year I will boycott any Joe C fight and become a Kessler fan!!! Not to the extreme of some people on this board(or formerly on it ) but you get my drift.....
Agreed completely. Even hardened Calzaghe fans like me have been asking many questions about the way his career has been handled recently. At 35 and with 4 fights left at the max he needs only fights that matter.

No excuses. Just get the fights. Warren needs to be less controlling because he has made more than enough money off of Calzaghe's name over the years. Give the fans the twilight fights that they bloody well deserve!!!
