A quote from Paulie: "I thought he fought a very smart fight. He made Donaire look ordinary, and that is not easy to do. I don't get it [the criticism of Rigondeaux's performance.] If it was not that easy, then wouldn't Donaire have gotten off more? There's not much difference between casual boxing fans and hardcore boxing fans. Neither knows s--t about boxing," said Malignaggi, 32.

"It's just hardcores watch boxing every week. Rigondeaux started the fight more aggressively than I expected, then kind of tapered off and sat back yet continued to win rounds. In the last round, he came out trying to close the show. When it comes to boxing, this culture -- American -- is probably the most ignorant of all cultures that watch boxing. That includes most of the boxing media here as well."

I like Paulie
