Fighting as the co-feature this Saturday on the Ricky “Hitman” Hatton and Juan Lazcano “Homecoming” card is a rematch between IBF Light Welterweight Champion Paulie Malignaggi and former title holder Lovemore N’dou. Malignaggi outboxed N’dou over twelve rounds last year claiming the title by scores of 120-106 twice and 118-118.
Curtis McCormick of SaddoBoxing spoke with Paulie Malignaggi today at the Village Hotel, Ashton-under-Lyne. Wearing a Manu shirt, skater gloves and a beanie hat that revealed long hair-braids – I admit Paulie Malignaggi wasn’t quite what I had expected!
But he chatted in a really pleasant manner to Curtis and spoke of his delight in being a part of ‘this big event’.
