you know what matey, i think a lot of people are seeing at as an easy win for broner which it isnt at all

but i dont think paulie will win as much as i hope he does, the lack of power is too big an issue

broner is a penis and id love to see his face smashed, but it isnt going to happen on this occasion

The issue for me is seeing how easy Paulie was to hit against Hatton, Broner hits hard in close, is very accurate and has alot more speed than Ricky. I just can't see Paulie boxing and moving away for 12 while winning rounds. He'll have to take some shot along the way, and his ego will force him to stay in the pocket. If he does this he will take a pasting IMO.

Or how easy he was to hit against Khan. I am one of the few that likes Paulie, but at the elite level, as @erics44 said, he just doesn't have the power.

Broner beats him easily. It's a perfect first fight for Broner at 147 because Paulie can't punch. Paulie took the fight because he's rumored to be getting a 7 figure pay day. He was waiting for that level of pay day to cash out. This is it. In my opinion, he'll face Broner, lose, and move on to full-time announcing.

The only thing that gives me any pause at all on that prediction is that for the first two and half rounds Rees, who isn't close to the boxer Paulie is, touched Broner up. At the very least, Paulie can do that. I just don't think that's enough to win a fight.

I still would have liked to see Broner face Miguez Vasquez at lightweight, and there are a ton of fights to be made for him at 140, harder, tougher fights than Paulie will be.

I don't think you can make to much of Rees getting some punches in, since Broner really didn't respect his power and feel him out. Needless to say that's going to be the case here as well, and Paulie really isn't as good a boxer as a lot of people give him credit for imo. He won't outbox Broner even if he manages to avoid serious punishment.

The only indication this may be a competitive fight is indeed Broners opposition, but all Paulie has ever proven at world level is that he's durable. Malignaggi somehow has put his stock way back up since beating that completely unknown Ukranian fellow, but 2 of his last 3 fights were ass whippings at the hands of Khan and a total nobody.
