Former junior welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi shot back at Manny Pacquiao's strength and conditioning coach, Alex Ariza. In an earlier report on BoxingScene.com, Ariza told Ronnie Nathanielsz that he wants WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan to destroy Malignaggi on May 15 at New York's Madison Square Garden. Ariza is steaming over some of Malignaggi's past comments regarding alleged steroid use by Pacquiao and other fighters who train at Freddie Roach's Wild Card Gym in Hollywood, California.

“I want him to destroy Malignaggi for what he’s said,” Ariza said.
