    Default I know this is sacrelige to talk about but...

    Has anyone seen the Paulie Malignaggi documentary called "Magic Man"?

    I heard it goes through his life from early days until he loses to Cotto. I can't find it anywhere, and I'm not entirely sure I want to, but...........

    Yeah I saw it on Showtime before his Ngoudjo fight. It's more like a propaganda film than a documentary. Gives a little insight to his hand problems and his training. He is portrayed as a gym rat and alot of the footage is him in the gym training/sparring, and some build up to the Cotto fight. Its a good watch though, I like the music. Paulie is pretty straight up when he talks about the Cotto fight.

    Exactly. I though it was a crappy piece of propaganda.

    I watched it thinking "this is the most pointless film about a B-grade at best fighter ever."

    Not at all. I don't hate powderpuff. Far from it. I find him very entertaining.. just don't understand why people rate him so highly, that's all.

    I was just bustin your balls a bit. I think people rate him highly because

    a) He's got a title and he's a flamboyant American
    2) the 140 lb division doesn't have all that much depth right now
    d) He's actually a pretty good boxer.
