    At their best..Id take Bika anyday of the week.

    But several things make this interesting.. Its in Manfredo's hometown (or close to it), Bika has been inactive recently and I think from a style standpoint Manfredo's quick and neat style with give him a slight edge over Bika's unorthodox and often wild approach.

    I do feel Bika wrestles it away from Manfredo and beats him up down the stretch but those other factors make it an intruiging fight which is a closer match then some might think.

    Good...sorta.

    He is the poster boy for average IMO and is pretty much in the middle of the field, if not lower, at the level his team claim he is at.

    Bika on the otherhand has the toughness and physical strength that few at the weight have. But obviously other abilities of his leave a lot to be desired.

    Looking forward to this one.

    Manfredo can be skilled at times. He will probably win a few rounds but there is no way he'll be able to keep Bika off him for the entire fight.

    I say Bika by late stoppage or Manfredo by controversial hometown decision.

    Bika is too wild, it will come down to Peter using his jab and straight punches to keep him at bay and win a decision. That being said it will be interesting to see if Manfredo can keep him away all night. If Bika gets inside it could be disaster for Manfredo. The hometown edge will be interesting as well and Bika is wild and if the ref is calling him on his crazy tactics Bika might well have to KO Manfredo to get the win.

    I will be there as there is nothing better than a Manfredo fight in Rhode Island!

    i see Mandfredo boxing well early, picking up points, but I think Bika strength will be the decider, after roughing Pete up a bit I see a Late TKO.

    Manfredo won't be KO'd by a legit way, the dude has a very good chin and Bika is not a puncher.
