Because he is Irish

Because he is Irish

True, the Irish are fanatical when it comes to one of their own. I don't understand it though, because the Italians always had betters fighters then them :P.

Hey, the Irish need something, We got a president once, who was promptly shot in the head.

Are you Italian ?

Are you Italian ?

Yes sir....just throwing in some cheeky humor, not trying to incite anything here. Just touching upon the historic ethnic rivalry between the Italians and Irish in boxing, which was always a great one.

Malignaggi is the ****in man, he is one of my top 10 favourite fighters. I wanna see Hatton vs Malignaggi for the Undisputed Light Welterweight Championship.

[Rhys79]

I'd like to see that too, I think it would be a good fight, If Hatton can't put him down, I think paulie might be able to take a decision.

[Easy-E]

Hes undefeated and has talent, and is a professional boxer.
No reason to hate on him just because he may not be world championship caliber.
Its not like hes claiming hes the best in the world and ducking, hes taking on the middleweight champ after 22 fights, the kid has balls and should be commended.

[Chipper]

The majority of his fans watch him because he's Irish. He's also pretty exciting to watch also.
