Very happy for Paulie again. I always like fighters who entertain in and out of the ring because without that, excitement isn't created, tickets aren't sold. (Unless you're exceptionally good..and how many of those fighters are there?)

Best thing about Paulie is he is always honest. Never any excuses. I remember when Ndou rocked him...afterwards he said "yeah I was a little hurt, did it look bad??". Guys like Hatton would always bullshit and give excuses for their losses (as likable as he was to the general public, I always thought you can't be that humble if you have to keep telling everyone how humble you are)
That's what I love the most about Paulie. Any time he's talking, usually, it's full of real talk.

Mayweather should take some lessons from the guy.
