He's never even come close to being dropped since he teamed up with Roach. Admittedly he hasn't been in with any big punchers yet, but Kotelnik hits a lot harder than Malignaggi.
His attitude sucks (ducking Maidana and bragging about who he's going to beat in the future and how great he's going to be); but in the ring, he's got loads of obvious talent, and his defence and overall game has improved dramatically under Roach. Anyone who's at all objective would admit that.Comment

Lennox Lewis had almost all of his greatest successes in America, so did Jimmy Wilde, so did Ted "Kid" Lewis, so did Bob Fitzsimmonds, so did Ken Buchanan, so did Jim Driscoll, so did Freddie Welsh, and despite what you say, so did Hamed (one defeat to an ATG doesn't mean all your previous victories count for nothing). Hatton did pretty well there too. It was his Stateside fights that made him a multi-millionaire, and he won all but two of them, beating Collazo, Urango, Castillo and Malignaggi, and only losing to the fighters rated P4P #1 at the time he fought them. That's far from being a failure.
So consider yourself corrected.Last edited by Dave Rado; 03-12-2010, 07:34 PM.Comment

Mate some people could say that's some pretty selective memory but I do agree that more than half the brits who have gone over to the US for big fights have failed but is Malignaggi really the man to stop Khan from suceeding in the US, I very much doubt it especially considering he has already lost to one of the Brits you mentions and on US soil.almost the greatest british fighters did fail in america...only calzaghe made it.please correct me if im wrong.naz lost to barrera,hatton to pbf,bruno to tyson,mcguigan..hope khan breakes this record,but he wont do that over Paulie.khan needs to be schooled for good and stay with the feet down..butComment
