I know this isn't a really meaningful fight, but I still think manfredo has the ability to be a top 10 MW fighter. What are predictions for this fight?

I'm not sure how many rounds the fight is but if it's 8 or over I'm taking Manfredo.

manfredo is overrated. mora wins a lop-sided decision. then again, mora didn't really even beat ishe smith. who knows? depends on if the contender influences the judges somehow.

I don't see that Manfredo ever fought Smith. Manfredo is a decent prospect but stuggled with the format of less rounds against very aggressive fighters. Mora is much faster and more aggressive and should win a well fought but wide UD if he's trained properly. Mora is a true contender and should upgrade his comp after this and go after a title.

Go after a title? you've got to be kidding. against who? The Hopkins-Taylor winner? They'd knock him out.

Mora isn't ready for a title shot. Ishe vs. Mora 2 should happen, in a real 10-12 rounder.

I didn't say Manfredo fought Smith, I said Mora got a decision that I thought Smith won. Of course I'm just going by the highlights shown on the Contender.

I think Mora is to fast for Manfredo. Manfredo is an ok fighter but Mora is better. I think SErgio Mora will win a unanimous Decision!

=======================================

I said upgrade his comp and go after a title. He can't go after a title unless he upgrades his comp. He has more than enough talent, heart, and ability to take on any middleweight. He just needs more experience over this next year against other contenders, a Joppy, Eastwood ect. Even a Quartey bout would generate some publicty. Kelley Pavlik is struggling to upgrade his comp. That'd be a fair fight that would generate some good publicity, even for the loser.

Mora is really fast and has good skillz but could not KO a fly....he probably wins a UD unless Manfredo can land some hard shots because he clearly has more power but can't match Moras speed.Neither will ever be true contenders IMO.

Depends on how many rounds. If it's a 10 Rounder I think Manfredo squeaks out the win or even TKO's him but if it's a 7 rounder then Mora wins a UD. Ishe Smith will KO both of them.

When is this fight?

This fight is on the 15th October.

Sergio 'The Latin Snake' Mora wins this one! by UD,
hes undefeated ranked 7th by WBC & IBF and he beat Ishe Smith, Jesse Brinkley and Peter Manfredo in the first fight,

Manfredo even butted him in the first fight but Mora taunted him and played mind games with him, and beat him too.

Sergio Mora might not have that 'KNOCKOUT POWER' but he certainly has a good chin, good speed, stamina and heart. hes been in distance so much and never been knocked out in his career i watched all his fight on contender too, i see this going like the first fight = Mora by UD

Don't get me wrong Sergio was my pick to win the contender but he should not be ranked that high IMO. Yeah he beat Ishe Smith but who else? He's only had like 16 fights also.

I think The Latin Snake will win the same way he won the first fight. He will tire Peter out and just out hussle him. He tends to get careless at times and I think peter has the power to KO him but he's too fast and too slick for him.

yeah I definitely disagree that he can take on any middleweight. Wright, Hopkins, and Taylor all beat him anytime. Ishe Smith would beat him in a rematch 10 rounder or 12 rounder anytime I think. Joppy or Eastman, yeah I could see him beating them. Quartey, wouldn't be a bit surprised. Pavlik could be an interesting fight.

Mora better not even think of going to 168 though. I'm hoping Brinkley will cause I never liked him. I hope he fights one of my chin checkers b/c either of them would eat Brinkley up within 2-3 rounds easily, guaranteed.

I don't know why people are calling Mora slick he's not. His punches are like slaps, any decent top 10 middleweight is going to beat Mora rather easily, and so will Manfredo. Mora has no stamina, no power, a good chin, and decent skills, but he's not a top 10 contender yet imo. He needs a few fights to upgrade his competition then he can go from there.

According to Boxrec.com he is in the top 10, hes ranked 7th, and once he beats Manfredo again he should get an Eliminator fight.

He has stamina,chin, good hand speed and footwork, he can take a punch, he has a lot of heart. He will be the contender again

Mora has no stamina

You obviously didn't see the first fight or else you wouldn't have said that. He was fighting off the ropes for the entire fight while peter was using his weight to break him down and he failed. Sergio was still throwing combos till the end of the last round, it is peter who lacks stamina.

Mora by decision. He is a smarter fighter. None of the "contenders" have a chance against the true Contenders.

this is a pick'em kind of fight. this fight can go either way, the only thing about this time around is Manfredo is going to be coming in fresh, which is going to make for a more competitive this time around. i just hope that these guys from contender start fighting other fighters in boxing, you can't build a succesful career fighting the same corp of people. you can't learn about being a world class fighters if you keep doing that.

Yeah and peter was the one without any stamina left in the & round fight so you are just plaine wrong moron. Don't say he lacks staimina when it's the other fighter who clearly showed it. Done.

Dude did you know in the first fight the judges scored only 2 round for Peter Manfredo, and one of them scored only 1 round out of 7 round, Rest all for Mora, Sergio is gonna outbox him easily hes fast and hes got stamina, he doesnt just use power he uses his brains too, which is unlikely in Manfredos case...
