Do you respect Paulie more after the Diaz fight

[JunglistSoldja]

Yes or No please state why

Edit: I made a poll with this thread but it screwed itself. I think one of those judges has been tampering with it.

[MonsieurGeorges]

yeah i gained some respect for him. i was never a fan but the man always comes in top shape and shows heart win or lose. he's also not afraid to call out the bull**** that goes in the sport, not alot of guys have the balls

[Bushidō]

Yes because he didn't hold back his feelings. He basically called it and it happened

[Idgas]

i have more respect for him not because of his opinions about boxing officials and houston, but because he said he'll show what paulie malignaggi was about tonight and he delivered. i wish he had this much determination and anger in the hatton fight.

[ThePunchingBag]

I lost some respect for his comments about boxing. If he knew it was gonna happen, why does he moan about it? He should have just immediately called for a rematch outside of Houston. Next time he should try to make it a shut out instead of box on his back foot and lose rounds for lack of aggression.

[Titing Kabayo]

I pity him.. and emphatized with him...

[brently1979]

I respect what he said. It's not far from the truth either to be honest. These BS decisions have slowly killed the fight game.

[Motofan]

More.

[Mech.]

No. Do you respect fighters who play the victim card before the fight even starts? Juan Diaz has been beaten by boxers far better than Malignnagi thinks he is. The only reason he has any kind of popularity is because of how he runs his mouth.

Paulie proved one thing tonight, how easy it is to incite boxing fans, if you're gonna yell robbery at every close fight, it's no wonder nobody takes what boxing fans have to say seriously.
