Why are people calling Broner-Malignaggi a cherry pick?

[Shogunofharlem1]

At this stage of his career Paulie is done. He doesnt have what little he had anymore. People have a real problem with broner hop scotching 140 to fight a paper champ at 147.

[HanzGruber]

Pretty simple really, because he's leapfrogging a stacked 140 division in order to pick up an easy belt at 147 from a fading champ.

Danny Lucas Lamont and khan all had fights lined up. Who said he's not going to 140. And all those guys will be moving up soon

Once again. Who the hell is he supposed to fight at 140? Who does t have a fight lined up? Ppm cali, he's overrated and not good but supposedly Paulie is a cheerypick? Never mind the guy has never fought at 147 and never mind he's gonna be the smaller man in the ring.

After the Rees figh people were talking about how much he got hit by a little guy and how he's not as good as advertised. Now moving up 2 weight classes to fight an experienced champ top 10 at 147 and it's a cherry pick. Why is he held to such high standard already with only 24 or so fights. Enlighten me

He picked the weakest champ and everyone knows it. He wanted a guy without a punch to negate the weight difference.

malignaggi just lost his last fight to a guy who was basically a lightweight journeyman. if he had the official L on his record like he should would this fight be worth a damn? easy answer. no. boxing politics setup this farce.

:

Broner weighed in at 150 against Rees, who was actually heavier. Please stop acting like Broner is that big when every top 140lber comes in the ring at 150+. Oh but that's ok rite because ppl like mathysse.

Nonsense man, Paulie looked awesome there

IF Paulie is as pumped as ever, I'm sure he's going to be in great shape. The only thing I'm really worried about is how Broner fights Paulie. Paulie seems to be real ****in into kickin Broner's ass, it might be all hype or he really could come at him as best as we've ever seen. Either way Paulie knows how to box and he's got heart.

Paulie is also the ****in champ man, I don't even think his title was a at stake vs Cano (for some odd reason) and he stated it really made him lose motivation for the fight.

BS if you comment on Paulie's power, it's not like he ever relied on it. Punches hurt, the dude is a professional.

Although my pick is Broner late TKO.
