Malignaggi: "I'll Be Ready For Ricky Hatton By Fall"

[Sweet Pea]

hatton will bully pm all day. can see it going the distance but hatton will win UD or even late ko. pm has got a lot of heart but hatton is dam near unbeatable at 140. the only guy i can see beating him is mayweather at 140. based on pm's performance last night he has no chance. it was good to see that ricky has got the hunger there.

I'm a Paulie fan but I have to agree with this post.

how do you think a guy with no power, who does'nt throw one meaningful punch in 12 rounds, who is very easy to hit and who crumbled under the spotlight will beat Hatton?

**** i even think Lazcano could beat Paulie

[Pugilistic™]

I like Paulie but once he fights Hatton he will receive his second loss.

Whatan event it was but i werent impressed with Paulie last night and im a huge fan. He was the reason i went. Hatton look great. Hatton on that performance and Paulie on that performance...i agree, i regrettingly see Hatton winning.

A guy with no meaningful punches very easy to hit and crumbled under the american spot light, Sounds like hatton to me(againstmayweather). How the **** will he beat paulie? Clinch him to death?all hattons fans arew brainwashed and can't see the reality that hatton was overrated in the first place and since he's been on american tv he's struggled.paulie will box circles around ricky.

Hatton is not ever going to beat Floyd, doesn't "deserve" a rematch, but will probably get one b/c he has a huge fan base and the fight will rake dollars. He left himself open and took too many shots from Lazcano. I won't even touch on the tenth round ordeal. That being said I don't see how there is any other outcome than a wide UD decision for Hatton. He's active and will force Paulie to fight inside where he's not comfotable. Hatton is vulnerable to a loss to anyone with mediocre power and up by leaving himself open with long, looping hooks. PM is the epitome of a weak puncher.

Something was wrong with Malignaggi. It was more than his hurt hand. Right from the start his timing seemed off. His reflexes were a bit lax and he didn't show the speed from the first N'dou fight. Yeah, you could argue that it was the hair, and then the hand that bothered him, but I don't know.

Malignaggi wants to be Mayweather. Which is fine. But at a certain point, you have to show mayweather's dedication and ring intelligence.

You would never see Floyd doing anything as cartoonish as the dreadlocks. You would never see Floyd coming in under-prepared (ngoudjo fight).


I like Paulie. A LOT. But he is 27 years old. Time to put the kiddie **** away and to come in prepared and dedicated and put on a "no excuses" winning performance.

Hey Paulie, first substance, THEN style. You are perilously close to having more sizzle than steak.

Paulie will beat Hatton, Lazcano is a joke and showed it in the ring and still didnt get knocked out. That fight was a fix. Everything seemed to just keep falling in place too nicely. Hatton almost got knocked down in that 10th and the shoe thing.

As Far as bullying?? Are you kidding?? Granted Hatton did get alot of clean shots on Lazcano but to me Lazcano looked to be muscling little Hatton on every tie up, In fact he swung hatton around like a rag doll sometimes.

Paulie will win by keeping hatton at a distance, i like the way he steps into his jab because he comes from a good 2 to 3 feet away.

I would like to see a Paulie-Mayweather because mayweather doesnt have the knockout strength to put him on the canvas and they are both boxers. You have to give the kid some credit because he is quick and might frustrate Mayweather.

Anyone who thinks Hatton will dispose of Paulie faster than Cotto needs to really watch that fight again and watch how he got his face broken in the second and kept dropping him.

Cotto is the best in the game right now and at another level. There is nobody that can beat him right now. I like watching these fights that expose boxers that are overhyped like Hatton De la Hoya and Mayweather. The game is gonna end with Cotto on top

Anything that paulie does in a boxing ring, mayweather does better. Even PM wouldn't want to fight FMJ. Please remember that Paulie almost lost/lost to Herman Ngoudjo. Allow that to sink in for a moment.

Paulie said that FMJ is the greatest fighter of all time and Floyd would have beaten Ray Robinson. You think PM wants some of that?
