Here's a good Malignaggi interview. 14 minutes long but it's worth watching.

Malignaggi Unleashed: Jabs Broner, Thurman and HBO - Boxing News

[Master]

Very silly fight which leaves Broner way out of his weight class should he win. They have slowly been developing Broners career and they then do this.

[Onetime]

147 is dumb I'm saying this won't happen, but if it does you can't say nothing, a fighter has the right to fight in whatever division he wants, people don't complain when their fighter does it but it's a problem when anyone else does. Really Broner should fight 3 times at 135 move to 140 and than fight there for 2 years than be at 147 for good, GB can't be this dumb.

[IamInuit]

I have predicted that Broner would be at 147 by xmas of this year so a fight with Paulie is not out of the question sooner if they cant get Burns. Broner is a massive freakin lightweight and would be much bigger then Paulie at 147 if they ever fought. Drop the size thing right off the bat. Malignaggi is not bigger then Broner.

[Onetime]

Wow Schaefer says it's set what garbage, let's be honest people will always dump on Broner but this is legit the dumbest fight humanly possible.

[Hulk]

This match intrigues me. Its a bit out of left field and you certainly have to favor Broner.

However, I've come to like Malinaggi as he is a slick boxer and one tough SOB.

I believe Broner will discover his KO power will be considerably diminished at welterweight. Paulie has a chance to put him in his place. Then I recall how much Paulie was outclassed and outquicked by Amir Khan and I start thinking the same thing may happen....

Do you think he's chasing Floyd?
I have no doubts about Broner beating Paulie. If this fight happens who are you picking?
Yes, great and all knowing Inuit person, you are the man again because you did pick Hopkins over Cloud. That seems like 10 of 11, right?

Pretty sure burns isnt scared of anybody sonce the beginning of his career he has fought all comers and fought his heart out. Broner beats burns but dont talk stupid about a good fighter.

Yeah get a grip One Time. Burns would fight Broner. I think Warren wants to avoid the fight though. He criticised Eddier Hearn for taking his fighters to America but it's because he believes in their ability. Warren has no faith so if it were up to him, he'd have Burns defending his World title against as many bums as he could find. If Burns leaves Warren for Matchroom, you can bet Burns will be pushing for the Broner fight.

[Ant Live]

I'm not mad at Broner or his team for making this move. But to be a super, superstar, you have to bet the best in that division. Broner has no plans on facing Floyd. That's the first thing. Secondly, who after Paulie(should he win) will he fight to put him on the next level? Bradley or Khan? Bradley don't pull in that much money and Khan is part of GBP plan of a "not on paper 140 tourney".
Winner of Judah vs Garcia will face winner of Peterson vs Matthysee. Then that winner will face Khan. So who's left at 147? Unless he's planning on challenging Pacman and/or JMM. In which, should be challenging JMM now anyway. If he wants to be the SUPER, SUPERSTAR!!!

He could have went to America and got the biggest payday of his career, now to me the only fight that realistically we need to see from Broner is Abril.

I agree, but burns has battled to were he is and he's got a nice little thing going. Don't blame him for not taking on Broner.
