Comments Thread For: Malignaggi: Pay Me Like Haymon Fighters and I'll Fight!

[Weebler I]

Haha. Paulie is crazy. If he wants to get paid like a Haymon fighter he should've signed with Haymon. I understand his position though. The Judah fight would be a sure loss so he wants to make as much off the "L" as possible. Plus he doesn't need to box. He's a great commentator and probably makes a good chunk of change from it.

A sure loss? I'm a fan of both fighters but Zab doesn't usually turn up for half a fight. Malignaggi has the activity to eek out a decision.

No wants to see Paulie try and throw 1000 ineffective slaps over 12 with no chance of him scoring a ko.

He isn't marketable.

He is marketable, this isn't someone who no one turns up to watch. He's a solid B side at this point in his career.

why do people like malignaggi? his resume is worse than berto's.

He's funny, shows a lot of heart in the ring and generally comes across as a good guy. He's talented too, the skills, work-rate and punch resistance are there, he's unfortunate in that he doesn't possess more power. He's not unwilling to take on the best either, he's not a ducker or a cherry-picker.

Boxing isn't just about supporting the top guys or the guys that appear to punch hard and everyone else 'is bums', it's also about character and entertainment.

^^^This...I know he's not KO'ing anybody but that's not why I like him...he fights his @$$ off & definitely can talk with the best of them...if he had KO power he would be a superstar.

Paulie no punch talks better than she fights

Face it Paulie cannot hit hard and just talks the ****** street jive talk that makes Paulie hated. Fans ignore Paulie.

Paulie is a great commentator! No way he'll get a decision over Judah so he should get paid big bucks for that loss.... Judah fills out the barclay centre as well so he should get paid!!

So if what you offer promoters and networks as a draw doesn't match up with what you feel you deserve you quit? Ah I see.

I think it's more to do with him not needing to fight any more. He talks about it at 5:20

I think a fight between Paulie and Zab would do huge at the gate in Brooklyn and also do well ratings wise. I also think it would be a great fight between a boxer and a boxer puncher. This is one of the fights that if I was a promoter I would put on a cheap $14.99 - $29.99 PPV card as main event. It would sell. Of course I would rather watch it for free.
