I do. I picked him to school Hatton and was let down by how bad he got beat. I thought Diaz would whomp him. Paulie deserved that fight imo. And while gettin dissed by the crowd, he still showed luv for them and for Diaz, and made it clear it was the judges and boxing politics he was attackin in his speech. Paulie is all class.
Do People have more respect for Malignaggi now??

Malignaggi is a good fighter that has never been able to consistently perform like he is capable of. He is fully able to beat the Ricky Hattons and Juan Diazs of the world, it wasn't a surprise to hear how he fought.Comment

i thought he was from Brooklyn
anyway Paulie was robbed big time me and my mate sat there watching it yesterday we didn't know the result and we both were stunned. seriously bull**** epsecially as one judge had it by a crazy margin
paulie's gone up an estimation in my book i knew he was a fighter after the beating he took from Cotto to still be there at the end of the fight but now i have even more respect for him
he was hard done by Diaz knows it aswell like Paulie said though there ain't gonna be a rematch he slides back down the ladder while Diaz goes up it's not fairComment

Paulie has always had a few things that have made him world class. Speed, heart, boxing ability, and one hell of a chin.
I swear I've seen this guy take monster shots that most would crumble from and he just shakes his head and continues on. He truly has toughness that is difficult to match, even if you do outmatch him in the other areas.Comment

I don't know if I respect him more, just glad he did what he did by calling everyone out. I'm from houston and I had it 7-5 rds Malinaggi, my son had it 6-5-1 for diaz. I think the scorecards were BS. I really believe that no judges from where the fight is held should be judging fights. If cotto is fighting in NY, no NY or puertorican judge should be judging the fight, same goes for pacquiao with filipino judges. If fight is held in philipinnes, then no filipino judge should be judging unless both fighters are filipinos. This way people cannot make an issue.
I think the Texas judge that had the 118 scorecard should not judge for awhile. Sorry but Diaz did what clottey did and took it easy when he should've been throwing punches.Comment
