Re: Paulie Malignaggi-Danny Garcia --- Sat/BT/ESPN. Fact.

Just a thought here before I conk out. How many times do the judges in UFC come up with a controversial decision? I'm just watching a seven foot Dutchman win and he should have won. I'm guessing controversial UFC decisions few and far between compared to boxing.

Last card i watched they talked about how there had been "many terrible decisions" earlier on the card. And they were" thankful they got one right" when the first on tv fight ended. I don't think it happens as often as it does in boxing but also they have a very rah rah theme through all because they all work for the same company. So i don't think they are as judgemental as we are because everyone isn't on the same team in boxing.

I was maybe a bit harsh on Garcia who won a fight fair and square for the first time in a while. It was against a seriously worn Paulie, but he looked sharp. Maybe it was because Paulie has no legs or output or power, but look at me, I am being all harsh again. Garcia should probably have that 3rd fight with Morales at 154 pounds. :gayfight2:

I watch ufc almost as regular as boxing n boxing is far worse with the decisions especially the big fights

The broner fight was the last one where he still had some fight left in him n wasn't damaged goods

I never realised how flawed Paulie is as a fighter.

You are right there does not seem a repeat. Boxing comes on Tuesday 8pm and the repeat is most likely be on then.

Nah UFC has a horrible judging problem. It's worse in MMA than it is in boxing, because a lot of the judges in MMA are just boxing judges picking up a gig, who have no clue about the kicking or grappling aspects of MMA and how to score them.

I read that CJ Ross wanted to come and judge MMA. Jesus Christ...

I know guys that have been in the gym with him. The only punch he throws, all he does, is the jab.

And he lasted 9 rounds with a supposed elite and landed some nice shots other then the jab. The fight says a lot more about Garcia the poser then it does about the long in the tooth Paulie

I feel bad for him. It's gotta be hard to be a slickster and have absolutely no punching power to keep guys honest.

Hope he finally hangs up the gloves for good.

He's had a pretty damn good career.
