Diaz vs. Malignaggi Could Be Up, in Houston, Texas

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Negotiations continue for an August 22 bout between former undisputed lightweight champion Juan Diaz and former junior welterweight champ Paulie Malignaggi. In a prior report, there appeared to be some confusion as to where the proposed return of Diaz would land. There was talk that Diaz's return could head off California but Richard Schaefer, CEO of Golden Boy Promotions, advised BoxingScene.com that Diaz would return at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas.

Losing 2 of 3 has not been kind to Baby Bull. Diaz takes this in a late TKO.

Let's Go Paulie!!

Wish this could have landed on the Mayweather-Marquez card tough...

I like both guys but I'll be pulling for Juan. Atleast neither of these guys is taking an easy fight. Should be a good one.

I dont know about that. If Cotto couldnt stop Paulie, I doubt Diaz can.........
