Comments Thread For: Malignaggi Responds and Takes Team Senchenko To Task

[Russian Crushin]

Man, Paulie is trying to rejuvenate his career at 147. He is definitely asking for more than he's worth but can't blame him for negotiating! As for the fight taking place in the Ukraine, Paulie has to do it if he wants to take it from the champ! There have definitely been a couple terrible robberies as of late, but we still have to support the integrity of the game and believe in the system put in place. Paulie will not get jobbed in the Ukraine. Come to win! Senchenko is a good technical boxer, but Paulie has a little more in the speed department.

I'll watch it if it pushes through.

The main problem now is that negotiations are over and it went to a purse bid which has actually lowered the number that Union was putting out from 250K to 200K.

So if this fight were to happen, Paulie is not getting more then 200K otherwise he'll be dropped and sued

He's got a point. He has to travel to east jesus nowhere to probably get robbed and he's far better than anyone Senchenko has fought, which says a lot because Paulie ain't that good either.

He should get payed for this.

Actually, initial offer was 300k and with purse bid it's lowered to 250k. IMO he doesn't worth even 100k.

I'd like to see Paulie go there and take the title off this chump...would open up alot of potential US fights afterwards. However, it is quite clear to me Paulie is pricing himself out massively.

[jtcs1981]

He is acting ******. If he is so confident about how good he is, go there and beat the guy. Get that title and you will get in the position to earn a bigger payday. With a belt you are in line to fight the winner of Alexander/Maidana, Ortiz/Berto or Guerrero. So much for the search of Sechenko.

Malinaggi wants to be WBA champion and has let the fight go to pursebid because negotiations was unsuccessfull. This means that he knew he'd have to travel if Senchenko's promotor won the bid regardless of the size of the winning bid.

Malinaggi is a douchebag if he doesn't go. Simple as that.

No the Purse bid lowered it to 200K because there is a 75-20-5 split with 5% going to the WBA

He know that if it went to a purse bid then there was no possible way for him to get that 500K, and that Union would win, placing the fight in Ukraine, and he knew that

He knows how ***** works and he either fights or he needs to STFU and go back to eating because his purse is now established.

[Elotero]

lol Mallinaggi really overrates himself i see

Paulie isnt even worth 50k. And I dont even want to see him on HBO. MAYBE Espn against young lions only, if that!

Paulie has nothing but asskissing fans on his twitter so he thinks he's a star. Maybe he is known but in boxing he's known for signing checks with his mouth that his ass cant cash.

I remember he said something like "the working man is a sucker" and I asked him if he really meant that, that the people who work hard and pay to see him fight are suckers? And he said he meant what he said. And I mean what I say, im a fan of boxing with absolutely 0 interest in seeing him fight.
