Why....Malignaggi as the back-up option?

[Porter's Dad]

Can someone explain this to me, cos I can't for the ***ing life of me work out why.

Firstly, Paulie has been doing alot of the ****-stirring around the whole steroids issue. So Team Pacquaio are walking away from one fighter who has made the steroid allegation issue a huge deal to.....another one?

Also, let's face it - Paulie vs Pac isn't going to be competitive. Yes yes, I understand style makes fights and Pac has fought alot of come-forward fighters, but....a massively declining Hatton walked all over Paulie......does anyone seriously think Pac is going to be manipulated by Paulie's jab, like Diaz was?

Pac is at the stage in his career where it's all about legacy - what the hell does Paulie do in that respect? It is nothing more than a glorified tune-up. Even if Arum wants a gimme fight, I can think of better options than a fighter who doesn't throw punches with even an ounce of bad intentions.

Not to mention that as other people have said, Paulie was conclusively beaten by the last two people Pacquaio has KOd.

This fight makes no ***ing sense to me, unless Pac basically wants to give Paulie a beat-down for his comments.

What exactly IS Arum thinking? Am I missing something?

[Bhopreign]

Because Pac's camp knows Paulie cant hurt him.

i doubt they actually fight him, the **** wont sell more than 300k......there just using it for negotiations....

[Frank Martin]

Im sure its just a bluff to piss the Mayweathers. But if it really happens, I wont bother watching that ****ty fight.

[ny123]

what a **** fight that would be paulie has no punching power to keep pac off him and you would think that with paulies recent allegations against pac they would never offer him the payday.

[Sin City]

I think Pacquiao wants to shut his mouth for accusing him of using steroids.
simple as that.

you really dont know **** about the sport do you?
using someone for negotiations would be using another fighter with drawing power.. something Malignaggi doesn't have.
you threaten one big fight with another one... it is very clear that this is not what they are doing.

Soze, I would guess that's exactly what it is man. Everyone knows this fight is a ****** idea, even if it's a semi-entertaining fight. I don't see Malignaggi lasting longer than 6 rounds.

if would be better for him to shut Paulie mouth...or shut Floyds???

[Jexy55]

Im shocked that Paulie is being talked about. Cant believe he could get the biggest fight out there...felt a JMM rematch or Foreman was more likely, but this? wow.
