    Malignaggi should be hired to spar Pac

    Malignaggi's style resembles Floyd's slick D. Im not saying he has the same hand speed, ring smarts or superior reflex like Floyd (conditioning, quickness.. this list can go on), but the angles of their positions are so congruent.

    No. Paulie is not slick. At all.

      No. Roach would not allow the man who ended Khan's career into the Wild Card.

        Call me crazy but the way Paullie sweeps and circles look damn smooth. For those who follow this style, help me out.

            While I like Paulie as a fighter, I do not think he would help Pac Man in any way while sparring. Whatever he has going now, seems to work. Besides, can mayweather stop a southpaw? Mayweather Sr. seems to think not.

              Im the original Malignaggi fan. If you go back in the day on here, I was the 1st one hyping him when everyone else was calling him a bum ass club fighter. Some still feel that way but most give him some props even if they dont think he's that great. He fights a little like Floyd but more like a right hand version of Sweet Pea, atleast he use to. I love pure boxers and he was as pure as they come. I thought he would give Cotto hell and to me he did. I think he did way way way better in that fight than people give him credit for. He wont alot more rounds than he got credit for.

              He then had like another good fight after that but since then its been downhill. He really hit a all time low with McGirt but has since regained form after dumping him. Still, he's not better now than he was back when he fought Cotto. He should not only be better than he was back then but he shouldve grown even more.

              He has some very nice boxing skill but is still flawed. He gets hit clean way too much for being a pure boxer and he's just not as well versed as he was coming up. Still a good figher and still may can turn it up and grow again. Its a big fight tonight which is huge for both guys. We shall see

                paulie is a circle around jab jab right fast boxer with good feet, Floyd is a whole different animal, especially on defense and counterpunching

                  I dont think this really made much sense

                    I dont understand the Hatton fight. That is not the same Paulie that fought Cotto. He didn't look so hungry and focused on that fight.
