Malignaggi Vicious, Attacks Diaz Over Rematch Tumble

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

BoxingScene.com was advised that a rematch between former champions Paulie Malignaggi and Juan Diaz is now a dead issue. Diaz, and his manager Willie Savannah, were unhappy with the presented terms and turned down the fight. The two main issues were the money and the weight. From what I was able to find out, Diaz was going to make a little less than what he had earned for the August fight with Malignaggi. He wanted to make more. They were not happy about the proposed weight of 140-pounds. They wanted the fight to take place at 138.5; the same catch-weight as the August bout. [details]

Paulie went hard, even when you read the interviews, you know he's from Brooklyn.

well if hes gonna get paid LESS then their first fight then diaz has the right to turn it down...

Either way, unbiased boxing fans know Malignaggi won the first fight even with the card stacked against him. the ring size, the weight, and last but not least THE BRIBED JUDGES.

They should both be making a little more money for a second fight.

Diaz is still a ***** though.

I feel for Paulie 'cause this dude won the Diaz fight and deserves that rematch.

[Iceta]

I'm so glad this fight is not happening. Boxing has been lame this year because of these kind of fights.

Yo man Paulie just owned Diaz, I never been a fan of Diaz. I hope Paulie gets a good fight for him.
