    Why Is Malignaggi Getting Cherry Picked Opponenets?

    In his next fight he is fighting Orlando Lora, who has NEVER beat any contenders or even decent level fighters. Last year he was stopped by David Estrada.

    They should of got him a better fighter against a more prove contender. Etc Selcuk Aydin, Matthew Hatton, Brad Solomon, Randall Bailey.

    In his last 2 fights Paulie also got two gimme fights against Michael Lozada & Jose Miguel Cotto.

    Haha and he actually thinks these wins should earn him a title shot. They will though because of these crappy organizations, but it's crap opposition.

      Because he was never that great to begin with, he just did a really good job of hyping himself up. Since the Khan fight, he's more or less been written off, and he even admitted that he may have lost a step. I doubt most people are offended by his opponent selection.

        Pauli was thrown to the dogs on a few occasions in his career. As his new promoter Golden Boy is working to rekindle his career and his confidence. "Gimme" fights are an option of doing this.

        The dude makes up for his zero power with a heart the size of a bowling ball, he deserves a few easy ones.

              exactly. . . lol delusional malignaggi. . . he went to golden boy so he could get the easiest route to a "championship". . . first he had to be served up to amir, and then in return golden boy would do all they could to cherry pick his way to a title.

              ole pillow fists. . . smh. . .

                    He broke his hand against Jose Cotto so I'm guessing this is a tune up fight to see how his hands are gonna perform in the ring.
