I think Paulie is a much better boxer than Chavez - much faster and has better reflexes. He would be able to evade being hit by many full, direct punches - and he has a good chin anyway if he does. He withstood many of Cotto's best body punches without being KOed.
Yes but he'll have to use the jab if he's gonna be able to catch Paulie with the correct amount of bodyshots.

Yeah and that's where there's a catch.
Because the jab isn't a tool that Jr uses, but at the same time......Paulie doesn't have the power to keep a big man like that off him. For one, Jr has no business fighting at 147 in reality and I have no idea how he even makes that weight. As Antonio pointed out he's a natural middleweight easily......and has the frame of a SMW/LHW almost.
The thing I said we all know is for sure, is that Malignaggi is faster and has the better pure boxing skills. He's slick and he's the natural at that weight area........Jr is monolithic and plods at times but that's just because of his size. When he's in there with a speedy fighter he's going to look slow, but his punches are much, much more convincing.
All I know is, Paulie can win this fight on his boxing skill, will and speed alone......but he'd better not lapse and get caught. Because if for one second he tries to trade with Jr he's going to eat it......big time.

In that case I wouldn't count on Toe-2-Toe action!
