Comments Thread For: Malignaggi: Broner Not That Good, Not Good For Boxing

[Xyei]

Malignaggi wouldn't have said ish until Broner took a cheapshot in his interview, he didn't have it in him to be respectful. After that why should Malignaggi hold back?

If you don't like what Paulie's saying then blame Broner, he was the one who broke the unwritten fighter's code of showing respect post-fight. Even FMJ wouldn't have gone down that road.

That's the thing. It's rare for someone to show such disrespect after a fight. As much as people like to compare him to Floyd, he has never shown anything but respect to his opponent after the fight. Even when the build up to the fight got nasty. Really shows a lack of character in Broner.

Watch the post-fight, Malignaggi gives Broner respect and accepts the decision. Then Broner takes a cheapshot and PM goes off on him and the judges.

Broner just made it worse for himself because now in addition to underperforming a lot of people think he is (a) a POS and (b) benefactor of a corrupt decision.

How can you say what pualie said or what his intentions were. You have no idea. all i know is they talked**** to each other the whole fight.

Broner answered Jim Gray's question, same way paulie did when everyone got mad when Jim asked paulie about "biting the hand that feeds you". did broner have to answer that way-no. was talking about taking his girl classless-yes.

but be honest-this is the same rant paulie went on after the diaz fight and diaz said nothing of the sort. Or was that diaz fault?

the people who think he lost are just fishing for something to whine about. he clearly and fairly beat paulie.

Malignaggi went to Broner's corner after the fight, hugged him and then clapped the decision when it was read out. Watch the post-fight.

It doesn't take a brain surgeon to know that Malignaggi was intent on being respectful but continue to argue otherwise if it makes you happy.

I didn't think Broner lost what I'm saying is his post-fight behaviour is the reason Paulie's not giving him "props" (I dislike that term but feel it will resonate with you).

Broners style of standing there all stil and pot shot with littel defense1!!, good luck with that against a solid puncher like Lucas or Maidana.

Again, you have no idea what paulie's intentions were. its not about arguing otherwise-its about you assumptions.

I noticed you ignored the part about Diaz. You blamed paulie's reaction on what broner said-I simply reminded you paulie has done this before and he wasn't prompted by disrespect-it was prompted by losing.

I can completely understand paulie crticizing broner and not giving him props after broner saying he took his girl. He claimed the NY judge was in al haymon's pocket, which has NOTHING to do with what broner said about taking his girl.

How can anyone on here bash pauly? We all saw the fight, is he lieing? No adrien broner is missing the biggest trait that his idol floyd has and that is discipline - floyd trains everyday to stay sharp and get better. Adrien looked to be alittle tired in there like he was pacing himself so he wouldn't run outta gas - pauly is qualified to speak on this because he always gives guys there just do - and that speaks volumes about character .

I don't think Broner was tired at all. I think his work rate is just because he seems to get confused or puzzled at how to hit a guy who's on the move a lot. He definitely has trouble with guys who stick and move and aren't just standing right in front of him, waiting to be hit.

To me a clear win is basically domination. Broner didn't dominate Paulie. That fight was a lot closer than it should've been. No one can really argue with it being a Split Decision for example. That right there screams it was not some CLEAR win. A win, yes... But not a coasting win.

Broner cant defend shots to the body, he was getting very frustrated every time Paulie went there.

I think Broners weakness has been found out, just throw to his body until he opens up at top

Paulie had the right game plan, but he simply didn't have the power

I don't hate on Paulie but lets be honest he wasn't in the ring complaining about bettering boxing and gift decisions when he got one against Cano. I thought Cano won that fight and Adrien won the fight saturday. Paulie wants to play the martyr all the sudden and do whats best for boxing but if you really cared about boxing you'd complain about all wrong decisions not just one that doesn't favor you

Just stop it Paulie. You got over a million dollars to sell your belt. Go back to commentating now
