AP Reports: This past Saturday 08/22/2009, a Brooklyn man was robbed in Houston Texas at the Toyota Center by 3 blind men!.. If you don't like Paulie, then do it for the good of judging in the sport of Boxing. Lou Dibella is launching an internet campaign to get Paulie a rematch with Juan Diaz. I'm not sure what good it will do but spread the link!: .

Yeah. My first thought was that this is more of an undercard fight then a main event.

why does he need a rematch. he obviously beat diaz. he deserves a rematch against hatton i would say haha but thats just me. i would still watch diaz vs paulie tho, just not in texas again.

I wanna say it's best to send this to AC to ensure neutral officials but.. The fight probably wouldn't sell too well away from both backyards.. Hard to imagine Diaz would get a fair shake in NYC but it's only fair to give Paulie a crack at this in the Garden.

If it weren't for Paulie being talkative about the judging befordhand, this wouldn't have been much of a main event in the first place. Controversy really helped build this fight.

Obviously he deserves one. But if he can somehow get a bigger fight at 140 without it, he don't need it.

Im glad Dibella is on page with what i was thinking.

Maybe taking it to NY is unfair because if paulie were to win then diaz and company would probably pull the "it was the judging card" if it were even remotely possible to argue that.

i think that should be avoided and it should be held in a territory not favorable to either fighter with judges not favorable to either fighter...not one from each hometown and another...ALL 3 should be some somewhere else.

infact why not just do it in vegas as a co-feature to a PPV fight? it would work well as the co-feature to pacman v. cotto. infact that would make that PPV EXCELLENT and WELL worth the $50. how many times do you have two fights worthy of being headliners on a PPV. not very often.

perfect selling point. then you have the choice of VERY experienced judges who are USED TO scoring big vegas title fights. someone with EXPERIENCE.

of course im for a rematch.

only way i'd say forget it is if a bigger offer becomes available first because in a weird way the pressure is more on diaz than paulie to be honest. many are viewing diaz as the loser so diaz might have to take the fight or live with the shadow of doubt his "hometown judges" created.

Help Paulie Malignaggi get his rematch!
