Seriously it was so far apart that to contest it would be ridiculous to think Malignaggi had a chance of winning or drawing going into the final round. Cotto outboxed a boxer and tore him apart yet all I'm hearing from you Starr is how Malignaggi could have won and how he would win a rematch. If you want to talk about giving credit...start with yourself.
Cotto won and Malignaggi put in a valiant effort. I wouldn't mind him sticking around now but I really think he is just a Lovermore N'dou type fighter who could give anyone a fairly competitive fight but I think he is to 1 dimensional to be a serious title contender.
start with yourself, I credit both fighters and you don't give Malignaggi enough ;) A lovemore ndou? ::**
I give Malignaggi tons, he has serious heart. Fighting with a broken jaw and making it competitive at times is great. But I read every single one of your post on the subject and really, there is nothing more then "he won, but here is a backhanded insult" And the Lovermore N'dou might sound harsh, but it isn't based off his performance last night. I've always thought that. He just isn't well equipped enough to handle that type of pressure. He's a slick boxer who can make you miss and has great heart but he just doesn't have the power to win a title imo.
But I took him off my hatelist last night. I wouldn't mind him sticking around. I would like to see him try to get to 135, he is a really small 140 lber. I would like to see him vs Raheem.

Malignaggi proved you wrong last night. You said that he was soft and would be knocked out easily.
But when he got knocked down and had that jaw and the fracture to his face FROM THE 2ND ROUND ON!!! and he fought on and won rounds from Cotto and made the fight difficult. And he only lost the fight 7 rounds to 5 which means if 2 of the close rounds went to Malignaggi(just like those close rounds could have went to Judah ;) ) Then Malignaggi is the champ.
SO quit with the haterade, its really starting to get annoying.
I respect Malignaggi SOOOOO much after last night. And how you can still hate on him is beyong me WAY beyond me.
he didnt quit, but im not hatibg on his durability, i am SHOCKED that he was OUTBOXED!!!
i thought cotto was gonna KTFO magalini or get robbed... and he won EASILY on the cards
there is no way this kid can copmpete if he is a boxer with no power who cant consistentley outland a guy who is slow for jrww, and verry untactical, not to mention cotto was dropping his hands calling him in half the night...
not to talk more shit, but i honestley believe the reason the kid got a broken face is because he had never been hit before and didnt know how to take a punch (not that he couldnt take it, that he didnt know how to get hit) he probably had his big mouth open while he tried to dodge a punch with his hands down, what i am hating on is the joke that is his in ring ability ;)
