    Ok i had it a draw. You can't say Paulie won either. I agree with K Larsen, everytime Diaz landed Paulie's head snapped back and around. His pop shot little jabs did absolutely nothing to Juan.

    So you Malignaggi fans ask, "Did that cut open up itself??" No, of course it didn't. But if you actually watched the fight they're heads but earlier in the fight and the referee clearly says "Accidental headbutt." Now, I agree, the cut wasn't that big at all at first, but it did open up. Its not rocket science that just one good punch can open up a cut much more. If Paulie landed one good punch on that cut, then thats the reason it opened. But how many times did you see Diaz's head snap back? How many times was he backing up? How many times did Paulie target the body? All i saw were weak jabs that hit Juans gloves. Diaz did have trouble getting his shots in because he was blocking those jabs, but he stayed on the attack and landed MORE power punches and continually had Paulie on the defense. If you want to call it "boxing," go ahead. But either way, Diaz landed the harder, more effective punches. In my eyes, its either a draw or a one-point fight for Diaz.

      so that cut on diaz right eye opened by itself?


      Wow....you should replace Harold Lederman from HBO, because he's doing a bad job on the scoring...

      Malignaggi Won 115-113 at the least, stop this BS.
      Hey man I didnt say that Malignaggi landed 0 punches. And like I said, it was a close fight, Malignaggi did not do enough for me to lean towards his side, besides his post fight interview. You are crazy by placing the term "at least" at the end of your 115-113 score for Malignaggi, I understand any one going for one side or the other, I just came on here to share my side, but no way in damn hell Malignaggi won by more than a 115-133 score.

Diaz did good work to the body and I dont think I ever saw Malignaggi go to the body. I liked the way Malignaggi was boxing but alot of his punches hit Diaz's gloves or completely missed. Good fight.
        Your one of the 2% who had Diaz winning, cong****.

I do think that Paulie won but for a guy that new he would be robbed if it was close he should have done alot more.

          But not always landing with those shots.

          Paulie was dictating the pace of the fight but he was not much more effective than Diaz.

            Agree, it seems me you and the TS are the few people that have not exaggerated on this matter.

            I can tell you watched the fight closely because that is exactly what i saw to.

              No No look the fight again! Diaz had his moments but most of his shots missed or
              were hit on paulies gloves! But i agree it was a close fight
              Diaz has finally learn to box or be more acurate!

                I agree, but I have to agree with Paulie that if this fight would have been in another state it might have had more realistic scorecards and a very good chance of him winning this fight, but had he truely felt this way he should have done more. and even with most of Paulie's shots not being effective as well Diaz didn't throw enough shots in alot of rounds to have won them.

                  I cant argue with that. I do feel its getting blown out of proportion though thats all, it was an extremely close fight.

                    it was a very close fight that could have gone either way, but you can't argue that the scorecards didn't reflect this.

                      Excellent evaluation of the fight. Diaz's punches were more effective and that is why he deserved to win
