    is paulie overated?

    he is a paper champ(won a vacant belt after hatton was stripped) he suppose to be a fast slick fighter but maybe im blind but he doenst look that fast to me and has the power of an 8 year old boy..his punch variety isnt top notch..i dont dislike him but his **** talking skills>his fighting skills..just my opinion..if im wrong educate me fellows

        I think his speed and skills are declining a bit since his first fight with Ndou but that might be cuase of all 12 times he broke his hands (im not sure how many times but it was round there)... But i dont think hes overated

          I dont think he's overrated at all. You know how this site works Larryx, if he was overrated, there would be many more praise threads about him. In fact, he doesnt even really have any nutthuggers on this site.

          He's not a bad fighter, and he can take a beating.

            I don't think anyone overrates him.

            He's a good boxer and decent fighter. Just so happens he has more in the tank than Hatton. (who I truly believe is just about done) So yeah, after Paulie beats Hatton he might be a little overrated.

              He is definitely overrated. He has fought only three real contenders in his career, and looked good in only one fight (N'Dou). When he fought a rematch with the guy he looked like crap then too. Hatton is on the downside of his career, but he has been fighting a much better level of competition than Paulie and should be able to strong arm him for a win.

                he's like a junior welterweight vs of wlad sans power.1-2 clinch.1-2 clinch.
                he should mix his punches.and he doesn't.look like hot dog **** in his last fight.
                hopefully he redeems himself in the hatton fight.

                    I never hear anyone label him as anything more than a skilled boxer wit 0 punchin power. I don't think he's overrated.
