until last nights fight he was underrated if you ask me.. he was definetly off last night. he will still keep improving..

The guy went the distance with cotto, and up util that he never fought anyone really good at all..

give credit where its due..

the guy started boxing at age 17..

multiple hand surguries..

I'm no hater but how was he underrated? The guy has talked his way into 2 good fights, one loss another a questionable result.

well the kid is the belt holder , and in a close fight the champ usually wins right? you have to beat the champ to get his belt! while the fight was close i think paulie gets the w! plus his oppt was no slouch either!

I hate his fights, he has no power at all.

Yeah but so does Calderon, as a boxer, is he anywhere near Calderon's skills?

Here's a guy who's biggest acomplishment is gettin woop by Cotto, had a draw in my book against Ngoudjo and yet ppl see him as one of the best pure boxers today, is he overrated?

no I don't think so. he is the best fighter to watch without any ko power. I mean, even though you know that with out a doubt, there won't be a ko in a malinaggi fight, you are still entertained. he was off last night, but when he is on, he is fun to watch.

I agree, but shouldn't they've called that a draw and Paulie kept his belt?
