Can The Contender Become The Upset Kid?

[The Final Word]

Wait there dude u cant even spell calzaghe nor manfredo

What time is the weigh in does anyone know?

Gee...could it possibly be intentional? Nahhhhhh!

I've been hesitant to criticize this fight. Manfredo being in it is likely to drive ratings up and make HBO more secure in spending money on a real fight (i.e. Kessler). If they're smart, they'll have Kessler comment at some point via sattelite.

how about no he can't

manfredo is bull****

A walk in the park for Calzaghe..
I would bet all my points, even give odds 1:3, in favour of Calzaghe

That would be hella cool if they did that...

It's a smart play. He's statside for ESPN tonight, already an internet darling, and it would show some real forward thinking (like back when Lewis just happened to be nearby on camera after Bowe-Holyfield...even though that example is a jinx).

As to the fight tomorrow, a realistic prediction is probably a mid-to late stoppage for Joe but I could see a distance fight.

He's in the US right now. He's to appear in ESPN "Friday Night Fights" tonight. In fact he's having dinner with the HBO sport president Saturday...
That would be a laugh wouldn’t it?

Peder:
I've been on the phone with people in his camp and am aware of that. In fact, I will probably speak with him Sunday or Monday and get back to all of you.

The fact that you'd give Manfredo a 1:3 odds shows that you think Joe is complete garbage.

I give Manfredo 1:100 odds packing a pistol.

The odds are currently 10:1. I would take that. Your 100,000 Against my 10,000.
