Malignaggi: "This is Why Boxing Has No Popularity Left"

[dwidsid3d]

robbery?

cmon? a robbery? Let me start off by saying that I'm an italian american before you all think I'm mexican or whatever. I'll admit 118-110 was crazy, but I thought the judges got the decision right. I think everyones gettin a little brainwashed by Herald Lederman who is from ......... the bronx, New York. Hey, isn't paulie from brooklyn? He actually gave Paulie the round when his pants were falling down to his ankles all round. Paulie got his ass kicked that round because the whole time, he had his hands down trying to pull his pants up. After that round, I said to myself,"now that's home cookin". Give diaz that round and you have a draw on Lederman's card. It was a close fight, but one guy was the aggressor and landed more POWER punches and had a way better percentage of landed shots. Paulie did better than most people thought he would do and you could even argue a draw for him, but as far as Diaz pulling off the decision, dude, it's reallllllly far from a "robbery". A robbery is Casamayor over Santa Cruz or even Demetrios Hopkins over Steve Forbes. But dont call last nights weak punching fight a robbery. give me a break. And one more thing, as far as Paulie saying that he knew this would happen and this is why he hates boxing now, let me ask you something: "when did paulie ever get robbed before"? Took a beating by Cotto and fight stopped (by his corner) against hatton. If I recall, he was on the receiving end of a gift split decision against Ndou the second fight. Paulie is just a loud gimmic man. He needs all the gimics cuz he cant do it with his fists. R.I.P arturo gatti. True warrior forever.

no one is shifting away from boxing over this horrible decision. corruption is everywhere.

[MANGLER]

Overstatement. Boxing ain't goin nowhere. No matter how much bull**** goes down, boxing>MMA. Period. But that said, it was a bull**** call by the judges.

[peyk-peyk]

For the love of boxing, let's move forward and ban Van Hoy from judging any sports or deport the mother****er to a communist country where she can learn the true meaning of the word "fair."

[Suspadres]

boxing has no popularity left because of ****s like paulie mali***gy running for 12 rounds. you don't win a fight by running and throwing pitty pats.

juan won the fight by 2 rounds at least. he went into the fight knowing he would run and then complain about the decision. **** him.

[EL ANIMAL]

I'm not even a paulie fan and this kid got robbed!!!!
I'm glad paulie went off like he did after the fight in the ring,, max kellerman should of let him riff alil bit more!!! Thats exactly y boxing is hurting. Thats the second bull**** call within a month. Bradley vs campbell was another bull**** call. U think people dont get tired of that!!? Man i'm a die hard boxing fan but something has got to be done about bull**** to help this sport.

[Trenchant]

He absolutely got robbed! He made Juan look like a ****. And Juan's cuts were from punches.

[DaTrooth]

actually non exciting boring fights is the reason boxing loses popularity. Paul sorry but im sure not enough people even watched this fight for this to even come close to affecting boxng.

It's called boxing ****bird, Diaz's face looked like that for a reason. I'm not even a Paulie fan, I was actually cheering on Diaz on the knock Paulie the **** out, but Diaz got schooled. Diaz needs to retire already, he ain't got **** when he steps up to world class opponents. This is the exact reason why MMA is taking over!!

[DocG]

surprised that paulie could cause a cut with his feather fist........

didn't watch this fight coz i knew it would be a hit n run match with Malignani in it.....

I want to see Juan Diaz vs Valero next!!!

Valero can fight in the USA only in Texas and Diaz is the perfect opponent......
