When the punch stats were shown, Malinaggi only had an advantage by 13 punches landed. Add this to the fact that he was the one having to use his feet to avoid exchanges, a Diaz win is more than a fair call. I do have to admit that I did not like that one wide scorecard. That was uncalled for. But when I look at fights like Dawson-Johnson and Cotto-Mosley, the losers of those fights have a way better case for winning than Paulie did against Diaz.
Paulie twisted and turned Diaz all night long and shoved the jab in his face and busted up his eye pretty good...Diaz also never hurt Paulie either. Paulie imposed his style of Diaz in more rounds than Diaz did to Paulie and thus clearly won the fight.
