    Is Paulie Malignaggi cashing out his title against Adrien Broner?

    I've got a lot of respect for the magic man, but Broner is just a terrible matchup for him. Broner will walk Malignaggi down, and probably stop him around the 10th round - Is Paulie cashing out?

    If by cashing out you mean taking on the guy that bought the most money to the table then yes.

      yes. what else is he supposed to do? he can't even beat hand picked lightweights like cano. time to make a million and afterwards start another run to a cherry picked title.

          It has got 'PM Retirement Plan' written all over it...

          ......Paulie gets a decent payday after years of slogging away in the salt mines, Broner adds 'a name but without any pain' to his resume and moves onto bigger and more meaningful fights.

          Everyone wins...just in different ways.

                I think he's cashing out because he said he's a prize fighter he only wants big money fights now. I think he has a chance though since Boner hasn't fought anyone that will give him movement and different angles plus Paullie is tough guy who can take punishment(taking a beating from Cotto). I say he believes he has a chance to win.

                  What do you expect? Should he fight a 154 Canelo, why not put on 10 pounds and fight Sergio, Sergio likes that!!!! Surprised Sergio didn't call out Paulie!!!

                  Picking up millions beat the crap out of "picking up the pennies"! I like Paulie I hope he isn't around to pick up the pennies against the tuff kids coming. Broner will beat him and Paulie will try like hell not to get KO'd! I think he could box Adrian for a while and look good while Adrian watches him and figures out how he'll go at him. Everyone thinks Rees won the first two rounds but they were just gifts while Broner looked and learned! I think this is good for both men, not a top notch match up but the right move for Adrian.

                    Ray.

                    Sergio has been dwarfed for most of his middleweight fights by ridiculous amounts. Chavez Jr weighed 180+
                    Kelly Pavlik - 6ft2½'' re-hydrated to 178
                    Darren Barker re-hydrates to the low-mid 170s

                    Sergio only re-hydrates around 7lbs on average, he has been getting outweighed by 8-12lbs on fight night.

                    I am not sure where this whole ''hes picking on smaller guys'' rubbish comes from tbh even when he fought Dzinzuruk, yes Dzinzuruk went up in weight but so was Sergio!
