He has the boxing ability to outbox anybody in the world, but when he gets in there with guys like Ndou, or Ngoudjo, or Hatton, guys who will FORCE him to fight on the inside, he is hopeless.
Hatton would beat him into the round, 8 rounds or less. Malig is tough and has a good chin, but he isnt nearly as tough as Lazcano, and he will get hit a lot more.
Are you kidding me??? Lazcano has never been ko in his 40 somethin fight career, he's faced stiffer opposition as well and he went 12 rounds with Hatton and didn't even look shook when hatton hit him. A prime Lazcano Ko's Cotto at 140.
a prime lazcano would be a lightweight lazcano and cotto would batter that lightweight
Not nearly as TOUGH as Lazcano? man,thats the worst statement of the day,the same Paul Malignaggi who went 12 rounds with Miguel Cotto with his face looking like a gremlin and his cheek broken? Imagine what Cotto would have done to Lazcano,Lazcano would have got KOd,Lazcano isnt near the level of Malignaggi nor could he take the beating Malignaggi did,he lost to Vivian Harris,Paulie would school Harris
Kball ur trying to hard to make Hattons victory over Lazcano look better then it really is

Paulie ain't strong enough to fight on the inside. It don't come naturally to him so when he has to do it he's bad at it. I think he could still take Hatton tho.
..... taylor IS better and would beat calzaghe.. what are u talking about?
What I was gonna say

Juan Lazcano got stopped by Golden Johnson.
see this is just a perfect example of a guy who has no IDEA who Lazcano is.
i said Malignaggi was tough, but Lazcano is HELLA tough. The guy walks though anything and everything. If Cotto fought him at 135 a bunch of years ago, im not so sure he would have even won the fight, let alone knocked him out.
Lazcano was a very very good fighter when he wasnt washed up like he was tonight, and he could punch, and he could take a LOT of damage.
I know Lazcano quite well actually,u think he would beat a young Cotto? The same young Lazcano who lost against Golden Jonson,or got a SD against Jesse James Leija,Cotto has been a beast his whole career,Lazcano IS NO WORLD BEATER,hes a good fighter,but i dont see any Lazcano beating Cotto,u are seriously making Lazcano sound better then he really is
Maybe the fact that Taylor ducked Calzaghe is an indication.
Kball, you're a joke. Thanks for proving that mate :rofl:
LOL. Yes, cause Roy Jones "ducked" Hopkins rematch for years, i guess that makes Hopkins better huh?
Oh, and Floyd ducked Hatton for years, so according to your theory, Hatton is better. Interesting.
Oh wait, the kicker, Joe Calzaghe ducked... everybody for years so... hmmm...
The Fact is, Taylor opted to fight the guy the fans were begging him to fight, Pavlik, and it turned out to be a hell of a fight that made me a big Taylor fan despite his loss.
He took a risk, and it didnt pay off. But at least he took a risk, much like he did when he accepted the HOpkins fight, and the rematch, and the Wright fight, and Spinks fight, and the Pavlik rematch.... Thats much MUCH more then can be said about Calzaghe :owned:
blah blah blah im a moron
Why don't you go nutt hug on another mexican fighter. Why do you nutthug on the crap mexican fighters? A good mexican fighter to nutthug on is barrera or is because the great barrea retired
?? ortiz vs malignaggi is a good match up.....and no my current fav young fighter is Linares...
Linares is a beast....I haven't seen much of Ortiz, the only fight of his I saw was the 1st round KO over Maussa, he's got a hard straight left hand.
You also said Taylor was better than Calzaghe to try and boost Pavlik's resume.
STFU man.
..... taylor IS better and would beat calzaghe.. what are u talking about?
Yeah like Margarito is better then Cotto, lol. You should be a comedian!!! :owned:
Margarito is going to be eating jabs and body shots all night long.
You also said Taylor was better than Calzaghe to try and boost Pavlik's resume.
STFU man.
Taylor IS better LOL. Much better to. Like i said, he would win if they ever fought. Trust me on that.
And i dont even need to boost Pavliks resume, he's not at the that point. Nobody is arguing about his legacy because he is so young. why in the WORLD would i try to boost his resume right now?!?!?!
Not nearly as TOUGH as Lazcano? man,thats the worst statement of the day,the same Paul Malignaggi who went 12 rounds with Miguel Cotto with his face looking like a gremlin and his cheek broken?

i wish hatton gets injured or something and Ortiz-Malignaggi gets made.
thats a good fight. Gotta go with Ortiz by KO though, hits to hard to that body.
Something almost all Malignaggi opponents have ignores, outside of Cotto, is his body. I have my suspiciouns
