No..he's going to reveal the love afair between Jermain Taylor and Lou Dibella. THAT's how he will expose HBO ;D because Larry Merchant seems to always look down in mid interview at times when interviewing Taylor...

What's he looking at!? :o

Who, paulie? If so Cotto is not an HBO fighter in fact he is fighting on showtime in his next bout and the fight between Cotto and Malignagi was put on ppv by top rank also Tarver VS Hopkins was on the same night on HBO PPV,sorry I don't understand the point you are trying to make.

Paulie is one of those dancing darlings if you will, He thought he was a cutie, ended up and ugly. Like most of the fighters who have only the one gear ( reverse) they eventually get caught , and busted up Paulie ego is fragile because he was use to a steady dose of fighting sub par opposition , fighters he could easily fuk about with, play with , get cute with and pay no price, Now when he steps up and fights talent , he get at reality check all at once,, and reality is hard MOFO to take, when you got those narrow shoulders and a false sense of invincibility.

I give Paulie props for taking his beating like a man . I wish he wouldn’t fuk it up by looking for stupid ass excuses.. You got you ass beat, cut and dry, now move on down the road,. No biggie

Heh heh heh. Gotdam...now that's just gross. ;D

I like Paulie's skills & ring ethics...I really do...& I was impressed that he went the distance with Cotto...but he needs to STFU with this nonsense. He got his ass handed to him & that's that.

Most "fans" know that Cotto has fought almost exclusively for HBO and that Top Rank is owned by the Arum family which has gone hand in hand with HBO for the most part.
Cotto has always been one of my favorite fighters and I predicted that he would seriously injure Maliganaggi but Cotto and Arum are now just jumping out of a pan and into a fire if they think Showtime is any less controling.

Whatever the case someone or another made some unfair manipulations just as was the case in which Oscar was able to keep Vargas from drinking gatorade. All athletes today drink a variety of sports drinks while competing under the common knowledge that it keeps them more healthy.

WOW!!!!! :o

It took him this long to realize that the boxing business isnt fair? Where has he been.

Manipulations or not "Mr. Growing Up Gatti" New what he was getting into when he signed to fight argueably one of the hardest hitters at 140-147lbs.

Everyone, including Paulie, knew about Cotto's fluctuation in weight...he got beaten. Get over it.

There's no crime in losing to Cotto.

Paulie should stop with the excuses. The weight-in was moved to 3pm after Paulie's team complained. I love the way that Paulie and the media never mentioned that cotto fracture his left hand in the middle rounds, which is likely why he didn't get KOed.

Good for Paulie....get all the money you can......

I think you're abit delusional.......and you are missing the point....he is not denying the loss...but in the way the fight was designed to practically ensure a Cotto win......it was BS...They told him they were changing the weigh in times and in truth they lied to him...they were helping out Cotto.....That should have you upset as well...If not you are not a true boxing fan and just your every day hamanegger.....

Boxing is and never will be fair,if Paulie can't get used to that,he should get lost firstly and secondly,he should have used his brain,Cotto weighs loads,so BOX but no,he tried to be brave and got his face broken. He could have worn Cotto out,his own fault what happened to him and regardless of that,wasn't Cotto supposed to be 1 dimensional etc etc all the other things he said?!
