Comments Thread For: Paulie Malignaggi?s Picks: I?d rather see more of Naoya Inoue and Ramon Cardenas than Canelo Alvarez-Terence Crawford

Moving up is easy
Moving down, not so much.
Add in DONE La Hoya was at his absolute worse and 6 years older.....

Vs Cotto, what an absolute disgrace
OK, fine. Cotto went with that cash grab and moved down.
Pac didn't have the nuts to run it back w/o a clause.
I mean he gave Barrera a rematch 5 years later

Shot to bits Margarito !!!
What was his record up there prior to the Pac "fight" ?!?!?

Strange how Paulie has been extremely vocal about Pac being a dirty rat, Pac too shook to take HIM to court for defamation

Did Paulie get the box braids beat out of his hair b4, yes or no?

Not sure what that has to do with anything you quoted

How would Paulie have done against the following: Barbados Demon Joe Walcott, Jack Chase, Charley Burley, Holman Williams, Bert Lytell, Cocoa kid and Eddie Booker? How about against Fritzie Zivic, Kid Azteca, Henry Armstrong, Billy Arnold, Ray Robinson, Carmen Basilio, Kid Gavilan, Johnny Bratton, Gil Turner, Curtis Cokes, Jose Napoles, Aaron Pryor, Hector Camacho (same trainer), Edwin Rosario, Jose Luis Ramirez, Ray Leonard, Buddy McGirt, Julio Cesar Chavez, Carlos Palomino, Marlon Starling, Donald Curry, Mark Breland, Lloyd Honeyhan, Pernell Whitaker, Roberto Duran, Tommy Hearns, Tito Trinidad, Vernon Forrest, Shane Mosley, Antonio Margarito, Paul Williams, Ricardo Mayorga, Kendall Holt, School Bus Head Bradley, PacMan, Bud Crawford, Boots Ennis.

Undefeated

He was in position to do it, and in boxing, fighters take every advantage they can. Guys that signed the contract are grown men that make their own decisions. They lost, then they took the loss like men. So you gotta accept it too. Pac was 142 vs delahoya 145. The reason for that catchweight was that just a little over 5 months b4 he fought delahoya, he fought David Diaz weighing only 134 1/2 lbs. So he was taking a big risk fighting Delahoya after being a lightweight just 5 months prior, and he made oscar quit on the stool. Just 3 months b4 he fought David Diaz, he weighed only 129 lbs. against Marquez. That means just 8 months b4 he fought DeLaHoya, he fought at only 129lbs. So do you think when you put it in context that way, he was smart to ask for a catchweight for Oscar? The reason for Cotto catchweight is that Cotto is a very dangerous man, period. He can literally destroy you. And Pac Man was smaller-- shorter and lighter in weight. However, Cotto would have possibly lost to that version of PacMan anyway. That was him at his peak. For Margarito, PacMan dominated him and broke his eye socket and carried him and pulled his punches at the end, out of pity for what he had done to his eye already. He was 144 1/2 lbs to Margarito 150 lbs. He would hurt Paulie real bad like he did Ricky Hatton. It would go something like that, or like he did to David Diaz or Cotto. Paulie's only chance not to be put into a deep sleep, would be to avoid PacMan in the ring, and just accuse him of juicing behind a keyboard or a microphone where he's safe from harm, which is exactly what he's always done

Everything you wrote was compelling, however, I’m still not sure why you’re still on Paulie. I never said Paulie could beat PAC. I don’t even think Paulie would last one round vs PAC.

Paulie would get eaten alive by PacMan, like a small dog marinated in adobo
