    Think what Mayweather would do..
    That was a statement from someone who hates Floyd. Are you actually dillusional enough to take Paulie could handle Floyd especially at 140.

      It would probably be closer than people are saying, but I'd say Floyd by decision.

        The only reason people think it's an easy decision is because Malignaggi hasnt proven he could beat a good fighter yet. His time will come. I seriously think he's going to be a p4p level fighter. And I'm not just saying this because I'm a Cotto fan.

            I rate Mallinaggi but Floyd seems to be a whole notch above him.
            Paulie has skills and has proven his toughness against Cotto - even if it was the weight drained version! BUT Floyd has more dimensions, better D and hits way harder IMO

                I agree with you, in a few years he will be a p4p level fighter. The guy has mad skills and potential, it's too bad about his lack of power though.

                  I don't get what you are saying.

                  You say that you saw him at 140 against nobody special... and he went toe-to-toe.

                  Wlad Owns said he would run or something ridiculous like that.

                  I asked if he had seen his fights at 140, which he never once even tried to box and move, it was all toe-to-toe.

                  So wouldn't it be correct for me to say that he will go toe-to-toe at 140 against a guy that you feel is on the same level as his other opponents at 140, namely "nobody special"?

                  Anyone who thinks Floyd is boxing and moving in this fight has lost their mind. Malignaggi has the weakest punch of any divisional elite fighter currently.

                  EDIT: Nice to see you back... I haven't seen you on here in a couple of days.

                    What I was saying is that Floyd didn't fight anybody special at 140, so implying that Floyd is somehow dominant at 140 is unjustified. We all know what he did when he was at that weight. At the same time I further noted that Pauli is, IMO, not that special either. So, I would not disagree with anybody that thinks that Floyd would beat Pauli at 140. [Pauli skilled but featherfisted] I'm implying here that Floyd is beatable at 140 by a truly formidable Jr. WW. IMO.
