Reading this record
Souris Manfredi is recorded at 12–3–0, with 6 of those 12 wins ending by knockout. Modern-era figures are the more dependable ones on this site: WLC and MTLF cards are sanctioned and their results published, so these numbers can be checked against event results rather than oral history.
50% of those wins came inside the distance, which ranks 21st of the 29 profiled fighters with a documented record. That sits in the middle band of the roster — a fighter who finishes when the opening appears but is equally accustomed to going the full distance.
Souris Manfredi is one of 3 fighters profiled at bantamweight, and fights orthodox, as 28 of the 32 profiled fighters do.
Souris Manfredi is listed as active, so this record is a snapshot rather than a final tally.
