I dont think it's the worst match up in the world with Calzaghe's exposure and the Contender factor where the show was popular on both sides of the pond, i can see both men being paid well and it being a good spectacule with Calzaghe winning in 6/7 rounds.
I agree that it would be an interesting fight and a huge coup for the Contender people but I think Manfredo would be in way over his head. He would better fighting at 160 lb.

Plus I really like Manfredo and wouldn't like to see him get hurt.

I notice a slight irony here though Skel. A few weeks ago I said that Manfredo would be a good choice of opponent for Howard Eastman and you said that was a stupid idea and that Eastman was way bigger than the reality boy Manfredo. What changed?
