McGirt had his (Paulie's) career in mind, not just his pride. Malignaggi was getting hurt, he had no chance to win the fight, so why let it continue and have it potentially ruin him? He made the right choice IMO.

Re: Buddy McGirt should have let Paulie finish the fight
I agreed with the stoppage. Malignaggi looked like a broken man in the corner between rounds, he looked like he was about to to cry after the 9th or 10th round. He wanted out and he got it. His reaction was just bravado in my opinion.
People might think I am being harsh on Malignaggi, but it looked to me that he had no fight in him.

This is the Reason why Arturo Gatti left McGirt.
McGirt needs to stop humiliating his fighters to be honest.
I still remember back in like 2004 he was one of the hottest trainers around...mcgirt has fallen off big time.

McGirt should have let the fight keep going, but Paulie should have done more work or else there wouldnt have been a reason to stop it. Paulie's fault.

I think it should have been stopped a few rounds sooner than it was. I think waiting to round 11 and then pulling the plug was odd.

Re: Buddy McGirt should have let Paulie finish the fight
Really? I thought McGirt pulled the plug too early. I understand Paulie was taking some shots but I've seen people take worse (Maybe because Vera took a ridiculous beating and no towel was thrown). Paulie had no shot of knocking Hatton out but there's a lot of pride in finishing the fight on your feet. Paulie was taking some punishment but by in no way career threatening blows. I don't know, I thought McGirt took his authority way too far. He told him to show him something or else he would throw in the towel. The round barely started and he already threw it in. Please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks so...
