    The "Magic Man" is a free agent....

    Paulie Malignaggi buys out his contract ($75K) to be a free agent....he said that he wouldn't mind going over and checking out the European scene....targets Matt Hatton.....wow really Paulie....does the rest of the 140lbs division have you shook like that?

    After 10 years together, former junior welterweight titlist Paulie Malignaggi and promoter Lou DiBella are parting ways.

    Dude is an idiot. Always talking ****, but can't back it up.

    ****ing C-level fighter should've retired instead of fighting. He's not fighting at 140 in the US because he knows all the top guys would beat his ass.

    Do you see him beating any of the top guys? Nope.

      Paulie is at best NOW...a gatekeeper....his fight against Amir proved that.

      I wouldn't mind his farewell to the US Scene to be against Zab....battle for Brooklyn son!

        Im still not impressed with Bradley and I know Paulie can take his punch. bradley would have been a much better matchup for Paulie than Khan. Bradley is good at everything while Paulie just has a bit of a speed advantage and a better chin, although that doesnt matter since paulie isnt hurting anyone nowadays. Im not saying Paulie would be the favorite, but I feel like he has mroe of a chance with Bradley than he would Alexander or a rematch with khan. I dont know, but before moving to Europe, I think he should have maybe attempted a move up in weight. Just to see how it goes.

          I agree with this.

            Paulie should go down to 135.

            Marquez-Malignaggi could be fun-Will never happen.

            He'd give Katsidis fits.

                I've looked at Raefal's top ten at 135.

                I think Paulie beats everyone but Peterson and Marquez.

                  I thought the same thing, problem though is he supposedly had big trouble making 140, dont think he'd make 135

                    I remember reading somewhere that Paulie stated he was having trouble making 140lbs "easily"......but he could still make it. So his problems are two fold...- draining himself to go to 135lbs......or getting sparked by the 147lbers....fack it...go to Europe...get a Euro title and chill in Italy!
