Malignaggi Wants Juan Diaz on Mayweather-Marquez

[Contenders]

If Paulie vs. Diaz is on that card along with Money vs. JMM and Zab vs. Ricky that would be the first boxing PPV setup similar to a UFC PPV. That would be awesome.

I think it's Ricky's brother that's gonna fight Zab...Matthew is his name I think.

Now we're talking. Make a good year for boxing better by working on them undercards.

I was gonna try and see the fight at a bar, but if they keep adding names it might be worth buying it and watching it with friends.

Juan will take this one...................that chubby MF will outwork little mac........no doubt..........

[Mayfeather]

Diaz will take this one but will be a good fight

BoxingScene.com has received word that former junior welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi is now willing to accept a fight with former lightweight king Juan Diaz. Malignaggi was scheduled to meet Mike Alvarado on the "Latin Fury 9" undercard on June 27. The fight fell through when Alvarado suffered an elbow injury during training camp. Malignaggi had waited for several months for the Alvarado fight to happen, and now his patience has run thin. He wants to take a fight before the end of the summer. [details]

wow, malignaggi is gonna get killed. Diaz in 1. Malignaggi is gonna get beat up real bad for the 2mins that this fight is gonna last.

Damn this is a dangerous fight for both fighters at this stage of their careers.

Make it happen. Both men need a big win in their next fight. I fancy Diaz in this, but Paulie cannot be under-estimated. A loss for either men could spell time on the sidelines though.

It would be a decent fight actually. Diaz would win pretty easily in the end, but Paulie's a tough guy and always puts up a good fight.

What weight would it be at? 135 or 140?

[BennyST]

Paulie would outbox Diaz. I'm hoping this one goes down.

I know going for Paulie is a darkhorse pick, but it's just one of those fights that I can see Paulie winning.

I can see where you're coming from but I really think that Diaz's speed is as fast as Malignaggi and that there is just no way that Paulie's movement, which is actually not very good, and jab will be able to keep Diaz from getting in and ****ing away all night to a semi-easy UD.

In fact, as horrible as this may sound, I just don't think Paulie is very good. Decent skills, but never seems to fight the right fight, always takes too many punches and doesn't have the movement that his lack of power needs to win big fights.

Unless Diaz was completely ruined by Marquez I think it's a pretty good night for him.

[Pugilistic™]

That would be a interesting fight.

Diaz would win easy imo though.
