Malignaggi: "This is a Make or Break Fight For Me"

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Former junior welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi returns to the ring on Saturday at the MGM Grand in Foxwoods, Connecticut. Malignaggi faces Chris Fernandez on the undercard to Carl Froch-Jermain Taylor. He returns from a the worst fight of his career, an eleven round stoppage at the hands of Ricky Hatton last November. Malignaggi looks to get his career back on track. [details]

Paulie got skill and talent to be an a class fighter he just needs to get back on track now, he's still young.

Who is his new trainer!!!!!!!

[Spirit]

I believe him about McGirt, although I do believe he hired him at the wrong time because he was fighting real top 10 fighters. I remember how pissed off he was after McGirt stopped it in the Hatton fight and even though he wasnt winning I believe he showed a lot of heart. I dont think he'll ever be the best LWW though

I can't really see Malignaggi fighting any top prospects anymore... He doesn't have that edge to put a top fighter out.

True that, a beatdown to Cotto and Hatton im mean how does he expect to be back on top if he cant hang with those guys?

How cute.... isn't it nice when you can dilute yourself into thinking that it's someone else fault and that you are nothing but an innocent standby. Yes Paulie.... at night, when alone and cold... keep telling yourself that McGirt is the one to blame. He is the one responsible for the fact that you have no idea how to make a fist and try to hit someone with any type of force. Yes.... he is the one that took away your boxing abilities... after all, you were once great, I remember when before McGirt you were beating great fighters and then nothing..... I feel for you man!

And by the way.... who is the next soon to be worst trainer. After all, once you beat your next opponent and you tell us how great camp was and how fantastic you feel... as soon as you lose your next fight.... well we will hear it all over again.... it will be another trainer taking away your skills.

Ego is a fragile thing.... even more fragile that your pretty little fists!

he breaks his hands almost every fight... his hands are worse than PBF's...

Berto is a welterweight, are you suggesting a move to 147?
