Paul Malignaggi: "I'm back"

[Spicoli]

Can just picture his weave flying to and fro as he yells this...snapping fingers,"Ohhh no he didn't". If Caiz and GBP had no adgenda going in ,they have one now.Won't be the ref punching him in the face though.

Paulie has been bitchin to every boxing site all week. I think he's trying to lay the ground work to try and prevent a robbery.

However, I don't see the feather fisted Paulie winning over Diaz, no matter who the judges are.

he apparently thinks he can or he wouldn't be worried about a robbery.

Paulie is on his last legs with the major networks, and he knows it, maybe he thinks if he calls foul ahead of time, that the judges will see things in his favor, so it doesn't look like they are biased.

I doubt they will though, not the way he trashed them. He better hope that they are fair now, after they way he talked $hit about it.

Interesting read.

Malignaggi will need to work out of his skin to keep Diaz off of him and make sure he lands enough inbetween. He hasn't really shown all that much in quite a while now, so has it all to do.

Needs to show a lot of flashy hand speed to catch the judges attention. Also needs to cut out the excessive holding shit we saw against Hatton. Malignaggi made that quite a boring fight, Hatton hits harder than he will admit to IMO. Still a bit of denial in Paulie about that fight.

Anyway, I'm pulling for Paulie because I quite like the fella (in a non-gay way).

I'm going with Paulie too.. however much I like both of them. I think all he needs to do is weather an early storm then the opportunitys to land clean shots will come in the mid-rounds.

Meh, last time Juan fought in Houston one judge thought Katsidis won the fight, that's one shitty hometown advantage.

Hahaha Ouma I was just about to post the same thing, Paulie needs to stop crying and thank his lucky stars he still has the oppurtunity to fight on HBO and earn more money than probably 90% + fighters in the world and there is alot of fighters much more exciting and have better skills who never get the oppurtunity to fight at this level.

Serious question, has Paulie thrown a combination since the Cotto fight? Aside from the doubling the jab of course.

I dunno I think he's a pretty honest guy, I seem to remember he just said that Hatton wasn't going to KO him & that Cotto hit harder. I didn't see Hatton KOing him, although I can understand the logic in what McGirt did in that one. I like Paulie (who couldn't after the Little Mac commercial), but he's in search of someone to blame already for this one.

He proved today that he definitely is back! I thought reading this thread yesterday that he'd have to be more than back & fight better than he ever has to win... but I thought he did enough to beat Diaz!!! He impressed me a lot! IMO he has gained more than Diaz from this fight!

paul is the man of the hour and he's back

I really think the Malignaggi tonight would have beaten Hatton. I seriously was impressed I havent seen a defensive fighter throw darn near 1000 punches in a fight since Whitaker. I say Malignaggi would win a rematch but he can also beat some of the 140 division. No I'm not gonna be outlandish and say he beats Pacquiao. But I think he would beat a lot of 140 pounders out there.

Personally I'd like to see him vs Bradley but I can't see it turning out any differently then this fight, he does great, fights well down the stretch and loses a close decision. Maybe he can fight Devon Alexander? I'd love that fight. There's a bunch of fights for him at 140 imo.
