I think Manfredo is a great fighter, he has the boxing skills to out box Pavlik, easily!
He's been trained by Roach and Leonard and has learned a lot. I think could be a major player in the SMW division with his combinations and jab.
JUST KIDDING.......

He is definitely a great fighter.
Calzaghe - Manfredo was like the modern version of Robinson - LaMotta, Calzaghe hit him with devastating combinations but Manfredo ate all of it.
The referee was finally forced to stop the fight because Manfredo just would not go down.
Man that third round was brutal! Calzaghe literally landed 20 straight winded up left hands and Manfredo didn't go down. That is the epitome of a true warrior.

Did you at least laugh at the staredown?
It looked like Manfredo won a prize in a cereal box to fight for the undisputed supermiddleweight championship of the world.
yea, what was more funny is how he came out to the contender song to the fight. how am i supposed to get hyped off a reality show theme.
That joke of a fight made me dislike calzhage to the point of no return.

He is a club fighter... the only reason why you are pimping him is to give props to given props to Joe. LOL... the circle jerk reasoning of Joe fans....

war·ri·or
–noun
a person who shows or has shown great vigor, courage, or aggressiveness, as in politics or athletics.
I say yes...
Notice I said not that offensive. Similar to aggressive that. He's neither. Sorry dude. Most boxers fight for ages and are willing to take some batterings, but their not all warriors. Taking a repeated beating, looking phased by it, not responding much, not fighting back all that hard does not equal warrior - any more than any other guy in and around his division towards the top.
Erm, yes there is. That guy is not a warrior, LMAO.
He can't switch his game up, keeps coming forwards and getting busted up, with a face to prove it. That does not = warrior, it equals not that offensive and stupid.Erm, yes there is. That guy is not a warrior, LMAO.

Manfredo was beaten by ALFONSO GOMEZ!
enough said....
I actually laughed out loud!
haha, thank you sir. i like calzaghe, but the rhetoric trying to spin wins over mediocre competition into masterpieces is a little silly... i like mayweather but i don't go around trying to sell baldomir as the next Duran...
yea, hes an all time great. so is lacy, sakio bika, evans ashira, mario veit, kabary salem, mger mkrtchian, byron mitchell, tocker pudwill and the rest of the HOFers Calzaghe has dethroned.
My ratings are like this
1) Calzaghe
2) Manfredo
3) Sugar Ray Robinson
4) Mikkel Kessler
5) Ali
6) Byron Mitchell
7) Willie Pep, etc
