CALZAGHE v MANFREDO -It's official- 3/03/07 Millenium Stadium-Wales

[AdamGB]

I'm with Smash here.

Only way Kessler beats Calzaghe is if Joe is starting to get drained at the weight. I don't really see him as having much more class than Froch, just a different style... Froch has the chin and pop to beat Kessler from what I have seen... especially if he KEEPS HIS HANDS UP!!!

After seeing the way (from ringside) that Frochy hammered Magee down in brutal fashion i say he will win a world title within 18 months
The Boy can still pull out the power in the 11th round of a gruelling fight.
Froch is going places and fast

Damn you guys are funny.

Froch will be exposed before you know it (to a large extend he already has - looks crap).
Having believed in him is gonna be a bit of an embarrasment for you lot in the future.

i really hope manfredo jr beats da shhit out of calzaghe for being a punk little bitch and taking an easy pay day. but that dosent make much sense cause the big pay day is with kessler.so what,is calzaghe afraid of kess?i think hes fukin shittin bricks! otherwise why wouldnt he take the fight a prove to the world that hes the best SMW out there?....Ill tell you why...because kessler is gonna whoop his a$$ bigtime.

.....manfredo dosent even deserve a title shot being ranked at 8th and even that rankings bullshite,how da fuk did he get in the top 10? but still i hope he fuks calzaghe up for being a dog!but it probably wont happen.

..........FUK, ALL THESE ABC TITLES ARE MAKING ME SICK! WHY CANT WE HAVE JUST ONE CHAMP INSTEAD OF 3 ,LIKE THE GOOD OL DAYS......THERES NO POINT OF HAVING 3 TITLES CAUSE IT TAKES 10 FUKIN YEARS TO UNIFY THEM...IF THERE GOING TO HAVE ALL THESE SHITE TITLES, THEN IT SHOULD BE MANDATORY THAT THEY UNIFY ASAP AND NOT LET THEM GO OFF AND FIGHT SOME 8TH RANKED PEICE OF SHITE!

.....NOT HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly
Froch has won every fight and mostly in an Entertaining fashion.
He really has won me over in the last 12 months
Fair play Carlos Frochio i say


Calzaghe Knockers are about

[Memphis]

If Froch was top drawer he would have hammered Magee in good style. A shot Robin Reid beat Magee throwing about 3 punches per round as well as a few tantrums.

Carls got the tools to give anyone a good arguement. But Kessler would one two him to a lopsided decision IMO.

[smashup]

Fact
The fight is a done deal so......
Let's get behind our man

Froch takes kessler

[Scrap]

As somebody has already said I think the promotion will flop big time, hope theres a fantastic under card if not it will die a death. doubt theyll get 12,000 in

Simply because Joe took this fight instead of fighting Kessler - I hope Manfredo batters him... not that it will happen... but it's what he deserves. I stuck up for him for fighting Bika to stay active because their wasn't an opponent ready... but loads of guys are free for thisdate... why manfredo?

I'm with you on this Adam. Never thought I'd say this about my former favourite fighter but he's proven that us Brits are well and truly gutless.

I know the yanks on here often bash our fighters but to be honest you can understand why.

I thought Hattons conquering of America was bad but Calzahe clearly intends to conquer America without leaving fucking Wales!

From being a hero at the start of the year he's amazingly managed to go into 2007 with his Sven Otkke never fight anybody decent, lets pad my record with bums reputation firmly reinstated.

I hope Manfredo stuns the world and beats him.

Long live Carl Froch.

[Kev]

One more thing I should add is some credit should go to Manfredo for taking this fight.

He's proven by going on the Contender, then moving upto 168 and now leaving Rhode Island to go and fight the champ at 168 that he's got the heart and determination to be a champ.

He may not be in Calzaghe's leauge in terms of skill or speed but he's showing that he wants to fight the best and really test himself.

I didn't like his arrogant showing against Joey Spina but I'll be rooting for him when he fights Joe because unlike the man for Wales he's interested in actually making a name for himself and trying his best.

Joe is clearly interested in making easy money. Not that there is anything wrong with that but don't expect your fans to think your great if you dodge all the top fighters your entire career.
