Comments Thread For: Malignaggi: Forget Mosley, I Want Marcos Maidana!

[davidw9785]

Paulie's recent transformation into a Pryor-like "seek and destroy" knockout artist spells trouble for the light-hitting Maidana. I just don't see Maidana having enough behind his shots to keep the "Magic Man" and his nuclear-powered fists at bay.

Malignaggi KO5.

HAH! cosign bro

gk for that!

Mags Has A Death Wish; He Gets KO'd By Both Mosley & Maidana!

Mags reminds me of another loud punch drunk, one dimensional Italian in Vinnie Pazienza. Talks like he's the baddest man on the planet, collects a paycheck, and takes a beating. Then come post fight, says all those ****** comments, "hey he's a great fighter, I take my hat off to him, I couldn't get off tonight, he was the better man, I'll be back". Really?????? They ought to hold up your paycheck when that happens. Mags was just calling out the drunken Ricky Hatton not long ago. Mags is a clown. He better hope neither fight is made with Mosley or Maidana. Maybe Mags can fight a 51 year old Pazienza. I heard Vinnie beat some woman in bar, so it could be a good fight.

Paula is terrible

How is Paulie considered a champion? too many great fighters at 147 to call paula a champ.

[hhwff3000]

seems like a duck move if u ask me... maidana is 1 dimensional and paulie knows/thinks he will be able to just counter/pick'em apart n move around the ring

Think about it this way, If Paulie beats Mosley what does that really do for his career or future? Beating a guy who hasn't won a fight in 4 years and is a gatekeeper coming out of retirement. (Oh and I love Shane btw) And losing to Mosley some how would be career suicide (classic High risk low gain). However, Beating Maidana a fighter so highly regarded for his toughness that people salivate at the thought of him fighting Lucas would get him a **** load of respect if he can pull it off. Maidana would probably be a 5 to 1 favorite in that match. Got to respect paulie for taking the more difficult road with the better payoff.

STFU! dip****! It's a good fight.

No. Really. Paulie is a feathered fist bum and Maidana is a one trick pony. Paulie is seasoned enough to tap and run all night to a decision. The real fight Paulie should take is either Berto or Ortiz. I don't particularly care for either but I honestly think if you know boxing, you'd agree. Either of those are higher on the talent scale than Maidana and surely would test Paulie as a Welterweight.

Lol@davidw9785, Made mynight.

[ricky1978]

LMAO....and people thought Mosley was taking the fight for the money.....

[Alpha & Omega]

People can say whatever they want about Paulie but he has never ducked anyone and regardless that he can't punch, he is tough as hell. The only 3 fights Paulie has really lost are to Cotto, Hatton and Khan, 3 world champions. He was only stopped twice but that was by the ref, he has never been KOed. Personally I think Paulie would beat Maidana probably.

good ..give that title to marcos , he's more deserving anyways than roidsley ..

paulie got balls calling for this fight...

Malignaggi vs Maidana is a better main event then Mosley vs Malignaggi. Mosley needs to retire and soon will Malignaggi once Maidana knocks him out.
