Will SHOWTIME fire Paulie?

They shouldnt fire Pauli but you have to understand that this is a corporation that has sunk big money into boxing this past year... You cant disparage your product!!!! Quickest way to get axed.

I think firing Paulie would be a dumb decision, as I think he's fantastic at his job.

Paulie did the same thing after his fight with Juan Diaz. He just gets too emotional sometimes.... That decision was also BS.

Fcuk them, he was speaking the truth. Paulie has got the boxing public on his side. The NY judge is supposed to have some leeway for the NY fighter, not Haymon's agenda. Unfortunately the 'boxing public' you speak of are not gonna support him financially

anybody else miss tarver though? the f*ck happened? dude pulled a houdini on us after failing that drug test. are there any updates?

I support Paulie in this situation. 117-111 was a ridiculous card and I'm tired of these hired gun judges. It happens too often. 2 good cards and then another guy that was watching a totally different fight. It's about time somebody involved with boxing speaks up on this BS and make people aware of what has been going on. If all 3 judges scorecards were fair, people wouldn't be screaming fix or robbery and the focus would be more on Broner's performance and where he stands.

After what he said tonight to Jim Grey i wouldnt be surprised if they fire him for Bhop. Discuss. Come home to HBO

Lol I thought that was hilarious. He looked so mad at Paulie. I Want them to fire Paulie and keep Bhop i was a bit disappointed with x. thought bernard would have much more to say but he was relatively quiet. paulie is a damn fine commentator, he's a natural.

i don't think so. they'll slap him on the wrist for sure, and put the fear of god in him. you cannot accuse judges of being corrupt in that situation. he backed off at the end, saying that the fighter was "politically favored," instead of being in haymon's pocket. maglinaggi does a great job with his commentary. a bad bit of commentating can make a casual fan turn his TV off. some former fighters sound incredibly awkward, and have no skills in this matter. paulie is great at it. he's a natural. he will only get better. they will keep him around.

Jim Gray was a sneaky cnut, he tried to lure Paulie into a 'fixed fight' trap but Malignaggi was too articulate. Showtime were pulling for their product Broner all night. t h i s !!!

Paulie's a great commentator would be disappointing if they do. Blunt at times, agree or not Paulie speaks the truth.

Hopefully they will.

foh man, you know how this sport works as well as I do. I can give you quotes of world champions saying precisely that. The hometown guy gets the nod in the close rounds - except when it's against Al Haymon fighters. When it's Al Haymon you got an NY judge scoring it 117-111 against an NY fighter. that's just as corrupt though and like pauli said usually is the house fighter or the more popular that gets the 50/50 rounds I gave the close rounds to whoever landed the cleaner punches

I don't remember who was Austin Trout's manager but I also thought it was ridiculous when Adalaide Byrd scored 119-109 for Trout in the Cotto fight, which was held in NY. I mean how could anyone see that fight 11 to 1 for Trout in Cotto's second home? Hell, I scored 117-111 Trout and there was a swing round that could have made it 116-112, at least.

what are you talking about you're not supposed to give the close rounds to the home fighter you give the close rounds to whoever you thought won the round you can look at aggression, work rate, ring generalship or defense but not who is the home fighter foh man, you know how this sport works as well as I do.

I started scoring the fight but then just decided to watch it and rescore tomorrow. I think Malignaggi won 4 decisive rounds and could have won a couple more. I would have been satisfied even with a draw. Malignaggi was very honest, the fight could have gone either way or a draw. A 9 to 3 card is a ridiculous. Malignaggi actually accepted the loss initially but they had to go and insult him with the third scorecard and then Broner's side-piece remark.

It isn't though, why keep repeating? It was a close fight and if you give the home fighter the close rounds like he's supposed to get then 115-113 is fine. A ringside judge really has to be pulling for Broner to give him 117-111 in the opponent's hometown. what are you talking about you're not supposed to give the close rounds to the home fighter you give the close rounds to whoever you thought won the round you can look at aggression, work rate, ring generalship or defense but not who is the home fighter

Well Paulie did do the exact same thing Juanma did
