Roach and Team Pac knew they weren't ready for Floyd so opted for Paulie

A Tune-up fight with Paulie would be good exercise. Then when Mayweather grows some balls, they can fight later on during the year.

I mean....I'd support and say OK negotiations went south Pacquiao is going to fight Bradley the top guy @ 140. But now he's fighting Paulie? In light of the facts, I've concluded that they're doing it just to spite Team Mayweather. They're saying "Since Floyd wants to play difficult, we'll show him we'll still fight on March 13th against a safer opponent and collect an easy payday." To think -- All Malignaggi had to do was publicly voice his opinion about the sport and allege that Manny might be on something to gain the big fights he desired. Quite odd indeed.

if mayweather was thinking about matt hatton after fighting marquez then why would paulie be such a stretch for manny? its an easy fight for some campaign money ... its funny that people are laughing at top rank's pick of paulie for manny after all the wars that he's fought the last 2 years. everyone is expecting manny's fight to be a superfight - every. single. time. mayweather comes out of retirement to fight a bloated marquez and then there's talk that he wanted to fight hatton next... are you kidding?! LMAO. who's the P4P fighter here?

To pick Malignaggi seems quite odd indeed. I'm still hoping it's just a joke. Maybe they just want to throw him in there with Pac to make him pay for what he's been saying.
