Malignaggi v Senchenko this Sunday

[J_C]

Anyone got any thoughts on this fight for the WBA Welter strap?

Senchenko 32-0, Malignaggi 30-4

Its taking place in Ukraine and Senchenko is a 35 year old protected unbeaten Ukrainian. Never fights outside of Ukraine and the biggest name on his record is Nuzhnenko who Matthew Hatton beat.

I dont hesitate to say, this is as big a candidate for a hometown decision as you're likely to be able to anticipate. I predict Paulie will pickpocket and jab his way to a Pts decision in all but the judges eyes. Senchenko by UR or SR (unanimous robbery / split robbery). I hope I am wrong though.

And for the UK fans out there, Boxnation picked it up and its on Sunday evening.
