Its time to start talking about Malignaggi.

[Chipper]

Paulie??? Zzzzzz

[th4l3pr3ch4un]

I have alot of respect for paulie as a fighter, going 12 rounds with cotto alone says enough. I sat ringside to the ndou fight and paulie was an exciting fighter to watch and he is certainly a level above the average fighter. But as far as being at the top of the division i do not see happening. I believe paulie will someday get his chance at some point, but whether he can really capitalize as the best in this sport, i think we all have serious doubts about that.

[Phantasm]

Paulie probably wil never ko a guy again, but at least he brings back what is good about the sport, the sweet science?

Why doesnt Paulie face Kendall Holt in a battle of NY vs NJ?

(Yes, I know...I'm killing this forum on my request for a Paulie-Holt fight, but I'm intrigued by the matchup!)

where as far as malignaggi vs hatton,you might get what you want,cause hatton from what i've heard doesn't want any part of cotto,let him go after torres,and witter.

Hatton would love to fight Cotto.

i dont see paulie vs hatton ending in anything other than a UD for malignaggi.

I do. I see it ending in tears with Malignaggi clutching his broken ribs and Hatton clutching his belt which he is currently loaning to Malignaggi.

If you don't appreciate good boxing then it makes sense why you don't like Malignaggi. That's why a lot of people dislike Mayweathers fights too. I don't particularly care for his overly metrosexual appearance myself but that doesn't mean I don't think he's a good boxer. He's got great speed and technique and can pick guys apart just like a Floyd Mayweather. As far as the Cotto fight goes, Cotto knocked out Judah but couldn't finish Malignaggi so give the dude some credit. Seriously. Not every fighter stands a trades. That's what makes the sport interesting. The whole point of this ****ing sport is to hit and not get hit and I think he does a pretty good job of following that principle. And there is no way Hatton knocks him out. If ****ing Cotto couldn't then there is just no ****ing way Hatton does. He'd get outboxed, plain and simple, just like what's gonna happen to him on December 8th, and I like Hatton a lot so if you're thinking about saying it, bite your ****ing lip.

Malignaggi's fights are good to watch and certainly not boring. This was even said after his last fight but it seems many forgot. He doesn't run but stands right next to his opponent pretty much the whole fight and outboxes them with skills. A great display of the sweet science.

Malignaggi saying N'Dou "****ing sucks" just because the rematch is in the contract isn't helping his cause in my eyes. I hope he fights Witter and gets knocked the **** out.

Comparing Malignaggi to Mayweather is a bit like comparing a Big Mac to steak.
