    Yeah I knew the KD would help Lacy pull it out. He still has power put he could not put his punches together for ****. To his credit though he's almost had about 2 years of down time. But I'ma have to rewatch it. I was just so pissed how bad it was. So this time I'll be paying more attention.

      I was hoping for a Lacy KO and im a supposrter of his, but as bad and ***** as Manfedo fought, Lacy fought even worse he only won rounds 4 and 8 clearly i could give Manfredo up to 8 rounds: 1,2,3,5,6,7,9 and 10....while i could only consider giving Lacy 4,5,6,7 and 10.....so IMO you had to give Lacy every close round to have him winning by a point....

        i mean honestly i was ****ing wondering what tthe **** was up with peter, he couldva taken that fight easy, but the guy allowed people to question the way he fought, therefore people stopped watching that he was outboxing and outlanding lacy both inside and out.....

          I had it even, with Lacy taking it because of the knockdown, but it could have gone either way. Crappy performance by both fighters and Manfredo could have easily won it if he had shown any heart. Much too big of a ring, though.

            3 factors:
            The Calzaghe bout has softened him
            The duration of inactivity
            Terrible style match-up
            His shoulder is absolutely beyond repair too I believe. His left hook ******.

              Manfredo had his moments but Lacy won the fight. The standard was far from world class though.

                i honestly still cant see how people think Lacy won clearly, even i, a big fan of his, could see manfredo landing pitter patter all night, but Lacy wasnt landing ANYTHING......

                  ****ty fight but I gave it to Lacy by a wide margin against the woeful Manfredo. But then I watched it at 4am and absolutely despise Manfredo. My judgement might be clouded.

                    in a battle of losers, you at least expect them to slug it out. from what I saw of it (very little), it looked like Manfredo thought he could outbox Lacy, which was not only a ****** notion (not that Lacy is hard to box or anything but Manfredo isn't exactly a good boxer) but a dumb move considering nobody is going to want to watch either of them fight now

                      What an awful awful fight. Lacy was slow, predictable and where was that famous LEFT HOOK? and the power?...Lacy had no snap in his punches. He still won the fight though IMO, but Lacy should be thankful that he was up against Manfredo who looked scared of him and didn't do that much. I think the main reason why Lacy looked the way he did is because of that injury that almost had him retired from boxing after the Vitali Tsypko fight last year. He has a lot to work on if he wants to get back to the top again.
