I really dont think its so much of a 'Texas' thing as it is the commission and promotion.I could see Paulie winning but this was no 'robbery'. I think he went over the top with calling people out,getting foul in a victim mantra prior to the fight like that.Rightly or wrongly,he put the spotlight on him.He'll ride this one into something bigger.And frankly has retained enough boxing 101 to last a while while Diaz is very rinse and repeat predictable...been saying watch GBP closley...almost come off like a syndicate or something.

suprised to see the thread title still up ?
