It's true, episodes of The Contender got about twice as many viewers as each of Calzaghe's last three fights.
Manfredo is a bigger name in the UK than Calzaghe..

Yes, he's known by practically every boxing fan over here, and many of the Contender fans were reality TV fans, not boxing fans.
If you held a banner in the middle of London saying 'Who's Joe Calzaghe' you'd get people saying 'Isn't he the one who beat that uhm, muscly black fella?', and I'm not even kidding.Comment
