Serious Poll.. Santa Cruz @ 126 vs. Malignaggi @ 147.. who wins?

[FrenchDeLaHoya]

who would win? if they fought each other at their weight. just to get a good understanding of the type of caliber opponent danny just faced. also, its an interesting fantasy matchup considering the weight difference but still competitive.

i mena u would have to favor malniggni due to the 20lb weight advantage but my man lsc would make it close

I am a Santa Cruz fan and I don't like Paulie. Still to be fair I think Paulie would win. Santa Cruz is probably still a 122 pounder. Fighting a guy this much smaller turns light hitting Paulie into a good puncher. I am sure Paulie punches a bit harder than the average 122 or 126 pounder. Santa Cruz is a puncher at 122 or 126 but against welterweight Paulie who has a good chin Leo becomes a light puncher. Most welterweights hit harder than Leo. Paulie is a good boxer and so is Santa Cruz. Paulie would be so much bigger he would actually be able to hit harder and take a punch better than Santa Cruz and that would win him a close ud.
