Does Paulie Mallignagi Tell Too Many Home Truths For His Own Good?

[HattonTheHammer]

The problem with Paulie is that he's known more for his mouth than boxing ability in the ring, which I think in a way people are going WTF? Now everyone says Floyd is a loudmouth, but the thing is Floyd has great skills to back them up. Even the people out there that might not like Floyd's personality, they respect his great skills.

Mouth+skills=respect by most. This is a Floyd.
Mouth+limited skills=not much respect. This is Paulie.

limited skills and not much respect??

he`s only ever been completely out classed on 1 occasion. Hardly a guy with limited skills

People on here used to go f*cking nuts about diaz before powderpuff got a hold of him and made him look a very ordinary fighter

Malignaggi may talk some shit and act like a twat but to suggest he isnt talented enough to back it up is way off the mark

I think Paulie is a top man, a straight talker who really does not worry atall what people think of him and also only speaks the mind of many who won't. He has bundles of boxing ability, and, as someone previously mentioned in the thread, if he had power, he would certainly be a force to be reckoned with at 140 no doubt in my mind.

I know you want to defend Paulie because he is 1 of Hatton's biggest win I presume.

Actually Paulie got his ass kicked badly by Cotto, a weight drain Cotto with chin issues at 140 I might add. A 1 dimensional declining Hatton whom no one rates that highly outside of his country.

Paulie has always been a B- or C+ fighter. Never was elite or even good, but just decent. Slightly more skills than a Dmitry Salita but way better chin would sum it up.

Quick name me his biggest wins? If you have to say Juan Diaz and a shot Ndou, then I rest my case.

Give him power and he becomes elite in my opinion

Someone said people respect Floyd's skills, yeah you'd have to be blind not to but Paulie is way more intelligent and coherent than Floyd which is why I'm surprised people dislike him for the things he says

Yes and give Amir Khan a chin and he becomes elite in my opinion also. Or give Zab Judah mental toughness he also becomes elite. I mean if we play the give him whatever he needs game to become elite then we can do that to a lot of boxers out there.

Like I've pointed out before, FLoyd has skills and accomplishments to back it up with that mouth. Paulie? Come on. When you talk and you can't really back it up, it becomes annoying, same thing with Amir Khan I might add.

Khan-Paulie. 2 loudmouth B- fighters with marginal talent going at it.

I've never had a problem with paulie, people are turned off by confidence, usually those with not much of thier own.
