Normally I would agree with you but, Juan Diaz puts his ass on the line every time and always makes an exciting fight. He has already been in probably FOTY and this was a great fight as well. I had Paulie winning the fight, but Juan Diaz I feel is ducking nobody and I honestly feel fights where he is told and I don't even like Juan Diaz all that much.
I have no scorecard because I have only seen the fight once but I felt that it was a very clear Malignaggi win. I was completely shocked when they announced Diaz as the winner. So much so that I knocked a hot cup of tea all over my keyboard and couldn't type anything for 3 days.
It was as bad a decision as I have seen in recent times and you had to feel for Paulie. I'm so glad that he raised a fight in the post fight interview. Everyone who framed that fight deserved to be called out on it.
Diaz was well below par and simply couldn't get going. Malignaggi was too quick and too smart for him. His output was spot on. A hundred punches in the first round was quality stuff. I was watching it thinking Malignaggi had swallowed a Calzaghe pill.
Please rewatch the fight, you must have been getting fooled by the tassles or something.
fooled by the tassles is an underrated theory
