      If you were in the jungle and you got bitten by a cobra, would you ask if it was his fangs or his tail that were the fastest?

      No, all you'd realise is that the cobra struck with lightning speed. That's why Joe Calzaghe never goes to Africa on his holidays.

        If your corner told you before the 12th round that you were down 11 rounds to 0 and needed a knockout, what you would say back to them?
        DWiens, I appreciate your question, but there's really no fighter on this planet that could win even a single round against the Cobra, let alone 11 in a row. There really isn't.

        When I fought Jermain Taylor a couple of the judges had him up, but any real boxing fan knows that I was up by at least 15 points at that stage.

        Joe Calzaghe still wakes up in a cold sweat thinking about me after that night.

          I respect those two as fellow warriors like myself, who are prepared to engage like a man. But if I used my full boxing skills you'd look at me as a cross between Willie Pep and Ray Robinson... except maybe slightly better.

          Why do you think Joe Calzaghe never faced me?

            At best, the time of this stoppage is debatable(.....) But seriously what was your scorecard prior to the refs meddling?

                  I guess in that case I'd have to say Calzaghe had won at least a round, but I'm certain the judges would have given at least one, maybe two, rounds to Manfredo.

                  But neither of them are anything special... I'd smoke their boots on the same night. If Joe Calzaghe ever turned up to fight the Cobra expecting another Manfredo Jr then he'd end up getting knocked spark out. Though he never would, of course, because he's ducking me. But enough of that, I don't like to talk about it.

                    I had it 2-0 for Manfredo at the time of the stoppage. Most of the windmilling was hitting gloves and air. You'd smoke his boots bro.

                      Maybe he'll come out of retirement and face The Cobra when I win this tournament I'm in.

                      Right now I'm expecting a final with either Abraham or Ward.

                      I don't think much of Andre Ward if I'm being honest... people say he's got speed but he looks quite slow compared to me.
