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

[joe strong]

This is not the reason boxing is loosing credibility. All judges scored the same fighter the winner. the trouble with boxing is one weight division 4 or more "World Champs" . Boxing needs to consolidate in order to become a credible sport.

I agree with you but malignaggi called this a week before.caiz is a Mexican/American from Texas & van hoy was his main concern...look what happened...bring on teddy atlas' scoring meter.that would weed out the brutal judging.explanations would have to be given after the fight for each round as the computer could keep track of each judges scoring.the meter doesn't lie! A guy is dominating a round & he doesn't give credit it proves he's either blind,not paying attention,or bias.it's not like the Olympic scoring meter.teddy meter works!

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.

That's Paulie's style, he controlled the fight. It's ok though because the baby bull will be instinct in a couple of years. Too slow for the elite in his weight class and too short for junior welter.

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!!

****bird? rofl, stfu. Diaz face looked like that because of a headbutt idiot. lol at Diaz getting schooled. exaggerate much??

mali***gy lost and he knows it. MMA is taking over because it has a white audience excited again. go play in traffic idiot.

Ban Van Hoy from the sport forever. Have the FBI investigate him for criminal charges. Send him to pound-me-in=the-ass prison for a long stint for his tomfoolery. And for all you assclowns bringing up Mixed Martial Arts: What the **** does MMA have to do with this? Nothing. Just shut your ****ing mouths and stay ontopic. MMA wasn't judging this fight, and MMA isn't killing boxing. Boxing is being damaged by inbred states like Texas with faux commissions set up solely to screw out-of-state combatants.

Diaz was getting outpunched. That 118-110 score was ridiculous.

[-Mbandit-]

Paulie bitched about everything before the fight for a reason.It's all psychological.People were thinking robbery even before the fight started.Therefore a close fight actually seems like a robbery.

It's not fair for Diaz and his fans.That the 118-110 score was bogus?Absolutely!But people are not focusing on that, they are making it seems like the whole fight in itself was a robbery when it clearly wasn't.It was just a fight that could have went either way.All his mind games clearly worked on you guys.

And how come nobody cried robbery when he had a close fight with Ngoudjo?How come he didn't ***** about the sport then?Pathetic!

I usually dislike Paulie and root against him for his soft tip-tap style and how he's usually all bark and no bite, but everything he said during the post fight interview I agree with. I can't believe I am saying this but... HE WAS ROBBED!!. I was rooting for Diaz to KO him, but I was impressed with how Pauilie boxed to a victory or at least a draw. Like he said, neither him or Diaz ran away with the fight to deserve 118-110 score but he most def did not lose that fight. I'd like to see a rematch in a neutral location and w/ neutral judges and see what happens. I respect Paulie a little more now for saying what he said during the post- fight interview.

Side note: Is anyone else tired of listening to Lennox Lewis f**king up boxers names? Can somebody please teach him how to think what he wants to say before he spits it out. The man is terrible as a commentator.

The more I see Amber, the sexier she gets.

I thought Diaz won, but I agree. 118-110 was awful.

[Junito-Rulez]

MMA has horrible decisions too, Griffin-Rampage, Bisping-Hamill. The reason why people don't watch boxing is more poor match-making and fighters ducking each others giving as excuse that they live too far.

Juan Diaz won it IMO, a razor 115-113
