What a chump performance on his part.

I watched the fight when it was live over the computer and just watched it over my 52'' big screen TV.

He is tough as hell and the epitome of class outside of the ring. Comes to fights in-shape, doesn't blow up like a fat man, but there is a reason why he is even still fighting in rinky dink casino's.

There's absolutely no substance to his game. That's why you see him wearing the tassles and the flashy trunks. He's gotta excite us somehow.

I'm sorry, but a 'pretty boy' like him will never be a great champion. It's no wonder guys who think they are 'pretty' like David Banks are getting KTFO in brutal fashion. Every time, guys like that will be bulldozed by fighters who dont care about that **** and just want to fight.

You suck, Malignaggi.

Blow me, everyone else.

Well done, sir. Well done.

I disagree. I think its his ****** trainers fault. Fighting Cotto the way he did was so idiotic. Then this fight was the exact same way. If he just stays outside and fights like a slick boxer then he has no trouble with Herman but McGirt like a idiot, had a game plan to stay in Hermans face and basically beat him in a toe to toe fight. Why neturalize your biggest advantage? That was so dumb. From the very opening of the fight I knew he would have hell on his hands for fighting that guy that way.

The fact is that he is a good enough boxer to beat guys by fighting like that but he wont be half as good as he would be as a pure boxer who stayed outside and made guys look ******. That would make him nearly impossible to beat. You can still land alot of shots but you dont put yourself in that danger zone. If you want to go in the danger zone then pick your spots but dont stay there all fight if your not that type of fighter.

One real bad thing about him though is that his D is not as good as a normal slick boxer. He gets hit clean alot

Malignaggi is a complete bore. He represents everything that is wrong with boxing... He's a dancer not a boxer. If you like Paulie go to the ****ing Ballet.

DLT, he is not a thinker though.

He is a one punch fighter. And he doesn't throw his jab stiff or to make the guy think twice. He throws it with attrocious technique.

Just look at his muscle definition. Even with the lanky fighters that have pop they have the defined shoulders and the huge back for their frame.

He has nothing going on which is why he punches like I did when I was 10 and my buddies pissed me off and i socked him in the mouth.

No one is going to be scared of getting into the ring with Malignaggi.

With Floyd you know he can hit you with anything. He really actually makes you think. Cotto has power and some serious skills inside. Hatton has his brutish style that forces you to fight. Williams has size and reach.

Malignaggi doesn't have anything. Just your prototypical average fighter.

**JoeyBB** · 01-12-2008, 04:35 PM

Oh and his timing is terrible. He doesn't throw the jab to press. If you look closely he throws it while leaning backwards.

Takes the momentum off the jab.

ANd his inside skills are fawking terrible.

McGirt was giving perfect advice...

All I heard was, "Paulie, stop pulling out! Quit moving to your left, he keeps landing the right hand. Keep the jab going!"

Yeah I watched the fight again the other day since I was under the influence when I watched it the first time. Malignaggi didnt fight THAT bad. Ngoudjo's long punches were giving him problems, and he had good defense coming inside. Ngoudjo is the type of guy who makes everyone look bad.

Paulie is sooo over rated but not for much longer. People like him because of his gay ass hair.
