          Well, Paulie is from Italy and speaks Italian fluently. Spanish and Italian quite similar so it's not difficult to learn Spanish when you're already fluent in Italian.

            Paulie sounds like Joe Pesci.

            He is one of the few top boxers who is actually interesting to listen to.

            Intellectually speaking when compared with Tyson Fury, Carl Froch or even FMJ he is a P4P champion.

            I have a lot of time for the Magic man.

              Im not surprised because though I dont speak Spanish, but from what i know from talking to people who do speak it is that Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and French are based out of Latin and over lap each other one way or another and have similar structure so if you speak one the other 3 are easier to pick up.

              I knew this Brazilian (Portuguese) guy who used to hang out with Colombians in my high school and he told me he only picked up Spanish hanging out with them.

              it's the truth. i'll even kick it up a level. if you speak any additional languages, especially those that you learn in youth, it's easier to pick up another language. the languages can have nothing to do with eachother, and it will still facilitate the learning process.


              it kicks your brain up a notch in general.

              hanging out with friends is the most organic way to develop language. well, outside of being a baby around your family.

                paulie has the gift of gab. i truly believe that writing and language are something with which you develop proficiency in youth, and are talent based, meaning in part that you're born with a knack for it.

                by the time you're an adult, you've either got it or you don't. you can develop your abilities, but the foundation is already laid out.
