I was really surprised at how Paulie stood right in front of Garcia, and absorbed a beating. Especially after the Porter beatdown. Truly think that Paulie looked at Garcia's chicken sparring, and concluded that he's not gonna "run" like Peterson did for the first half of that fight.
But it was exactly what Paulie needed to do! Not totally high tail it like Peter son did, but move laterally a little more. Paulie doesn't have the power to stand in front of garcia, he's a stick and move fighter. The fight would have been a lot more competitive, but Paulie came in with this mindset to not be that chicken Garcia was sparring with.
He took the bait, he fought Garcia's fight and got pummeled.
