As Spicoli just said, Guerrero actually did exactly the same thing in beating Berto, did he not? That was certainly a much tougher ask. I think more to the point is that Paulie has absolutely no size advantage on Broner, and wasn't by any means a relevant welterweight himself, trinket aside. He really deserved to lose the fight prior against a guy who had just been beaten up by Eric Morales, to put things in context. It's not really as impressive as you make it out imo.
