'08 interview with Malignaggi explains his frustration with Pac for "lack of respect"

[SplitSecond]

This just makes me believe Malignaggi hated Pacquiao even before this Hatton thing, before Pacquiao beat Hatton, before Pacquiao beat Cotto.

Just a natural hater.

But I suppose it really depends on just how badly Pacquiao neglected him, did he say something along the lines of "Ah yea, Malignaggi is a gay, Hatton beats him blindfolded with both hands tied behind his back"

Pauli has a deep hatred for Pacquaio and it's very clear.

I think it's jealously for the most part. He can't understand why a smaller guy than him can do things that he can't.

[SterlingStained]

So what do you think it is? Is it because Pac disrespected him, or maybe he really does think he was on steroids? Or maybe hectari is right and Paulie is upset that a little Asian kid from a 3rd world country came to his country and became what Paulie thought he was supposed to be?

that and the fact that he's on the al haymon payroll.

that and the fact that he's on the al haymon payroll.

But he's disliked Pac well before signing to Haymon.

Found this 2008 interview a bit interesting. Could shed light into why Paulie Malignaggi is so obscene and abusive when talking about Pacquiao. Perhaps it was Pacquiao who disrespected him after all, and Paulie has been salty about it ever since.

I'm pretty sure broner has disrespected him way more than pacquiao and he's over that. But not over what pacquiao said. The guy is a walking contradiction. Needs to shut up and get over pacquiao, keeps talking about him as though his secretly in love with him.

Paulie hated Broner but they got to put hands on each other to settle the beef. He hasn't had that opportunity with Pacquiao.

[SCEN3RY]

I've heard about this and it does put things into perspective. He can't go off on a tirade nowadays because of Pacquiao's prediction but he can use it as a personal reason to undermine Pacquiao whenever he can.

[Tony Trick-Pony]

I've wondered about where his hate comes from. It's really ****** and if that's the reason, wow. He's not even close to Pac's level. It's just the way it is. I'd like to see him get over it.

Both are part of the boxing world and at the same weight class yet the legend pacquiao cant notice him, I understand paulie
