I'm hoping the Calzaghe fight will be better than his last, was a bit ropey and nowhere near as good as the battering he gave Lacey. Can't wait for it though!

[VR46]

All kicks off on ITV1 now Khan up first, then Clazaghe.

That's twice you've spelt his name wrong! Not too fussed about the Khan fight, but what a good night of boxing!!

[Pavey]

Surely in the hearts of the public,Calzaghe has lost already?



Walking on to Bon Jovi!

Not intentionally, pesky keyboard

And I quite agree Nick, Bon Jovi, not good.

PS. How great is Michael Buffer

[Pavey]

You'd love him as your alarm clock!

[Pavey]

What do we think?

Was that stopped too early? Guess the other guy wasn't hitting back,but maybe that was his tactics,to a certain extent.

Joe probably would have knocked him down next round anyway. Glad i didn't pay for it!

[bignige]

Totally battered, but stopped too early.

[VR46]

Yeah stopped way too early in my opinion, sure Manfredo wasn't punching back, but how many punches did he actually take to his head/body on the ropes ? not too many from what I could see.

[Pavey]

Very very true. Barry is just repeating what you just said,so it was obviously noticed.

Peter seems like a really nice guy after that interview,feel sorry for him now

[Pavey]

Just showed it again. Maybe 10% hit .

Yeah, he came across as gracious in defeat. A little bemused and in awe of the occassion too.
