Has Manfredo's showing and seemingly new hunger changed any minds?

[Lance Uppercut]

Manfredo is just not that talented. A hard worker though.

Although his fight with Lacy was close, he could have easily been declared the winner.

[Bomp]

Manfredo has his level, if he fights a class above he loses, a class below he'll look good. He doesn't seem to have the hunger and drive to overcome the guys a little above him at the moment which is what he should strive to do.

I must admit that when I saw the word hunger in the title I assumed he'd leapt to Light Haevyweight.

Peter should operate at 154.
A fight with Duddy would be good for both.

In all fairness to Manfredo, he was not even given a chase to warm up against Calzlappy. I think the ref knew Calzlappy injured his hand. I will even go as far as to say that this was already planned just in case.
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.

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

He does stay busy and looked the sharpest I'd seen him since his fight with Spina.

[The Fightfan]

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.

[Violent Demise]

Has Manfredo's showing and seemingly new hunger changed any minds?

No. He's still crap

[TitoFan]

No...... his showing against Calzaghe made a lifelong impression upon me.

[El Kabong]

No...... his showing against Calzaghe made a lifelong impression upon me.

The fight vs Lacy did even more to leave a bad impression

[DaxxKahn]

Manfredo is a local feel good fighter...He will get on the undercard of big events and headline some small shows but nothing more.....He is the guy that everyone from his hometown can say they know or they have met and it is a name most who are fans of the sport have heard of and those who aren't are impressed by the whold TV show thing.......

Peter is a nice kid with limited skills and will never be world champion but is also they guy you would like to see make it happen....makes it fun to root for him
