Malignaggi sounds off on Pacquiao
We had the chance to have a good discussion with returning guest, Paul Malignaggi. Here is what he had to say:
On su****ions that Pacquiao is doing something illegal and undetectable:
“I believe he (Pacquiao) is doing something illegal but there’s no positive drug test. Since the David Diaz fight you have seen a monster change in Manny Pacquiao.”
On a potential Pacquiao-Mayweather fight:
“It’s a shame, and I hate to say it, but Pacquiao stops Floyd Mayweather. I think Floyd is the best fighter I’ve ever seen put on a pair of boxing gloves, but you can’t beat Superman if you’re human.”
On his victory in his rematch with Juan Diaz:
“I felt good. I think I felt even better during camp. I felt good during the fight but I just started to maybe lose focus maybe playing around a little too much, not that I regret playing around, because I enjoy playing around in there when I’m fighting, but a couple of times it made me not execute on some of the opportunities I might have had.”
Regarding why he enjoys clowning around inside the ring:
“I almost became, I’m not going to say “bored” because I think a lot of fighters use that excuse, ‘I got bored in there’. I was not really ‘bored’ but I wanted to make it more interesting. A lot of my fights, when I start dominating and winning on points, it becomes monotonous and what I mean by monotonous is you start seeing the same thing every round with me just dominating and out boxing guys. It almost becomes monotonous to me sometimes, so I think the clowning around it keeps the crowd involved and keeps everyone wondering.”
