:ohno: :WTF:

Cal did not look good out last time but his competition is declining instead of stepping up. Looks like Pemberton is cashing out because he surely can't believe he's going to walk into Wales and win. Klitz vs Byrd 2 all over again.

Klit - Byrd 2 with twice the punch output.

Can't believe this fight... Manfredo could've probably coasted on his Contender fame for another couple of years. Instead, he's going to get killed right now and lose tons of potential $. He's got absolutely no shot against Calzaghe, none at all.

Joe C. won't lose until he goes up to 175 and faces a big, quick guy with a great defense... Adamek, maybe.

Do you think he's afraid to fight Kessler? He must be really content with beating marginal guys in his backyard.

Not sure if he's scared of Kessler. I think he would probably like to fight him, but I'm pretty sure that both his and Kessler's team will ask for too much money and for the fight to take place in their respective country. The risk/reward ratio is too high for both of them right now - they won't face each other until they need to, IMO.

And yeah, Calzaghe makes a damn good living out of beating chumps at home... though to be fair, he did beat Lacy's ass pretty good, and Lacy was no pushover.
