Comments Thread For: Malignaggi: McGregor Has Game Plan, It's Not What People Think

[Gunpowdergreg]

The two things that we constantly hear and read are; McG has a plan and McG's left. Everyone who has fought Floyd has had a plan, all failed. Everyone that has fought Floyd has had 2 hands and neither of the collective hands of all his opponents has took him out. It is refreshing to hear someone say McG needs two hands.

Paulie's left eye was totally ****ed and that's with 16 ounce gloves and head gear... 49-1

Be careful saying things like that around here chap if anyone thought you were serious they'd start taking rep points off ya, you'll upset the floydettes lol

looks like he was pretty marked up though.

He is also fat out of shape, and hasn't been in the ring in ages.

Looks like he has a bruised eye though.

He seems to be repeating the same thing in all his interviews after the sparring.

To be honest I'm suprised McGregor's team have done this. Surely he will tell Floyd how it went?

I don't think he will, if anything that interview is all Mayweather needs to know, it looks like Malignaggi was struggling with being fully honest.

Why is there a Jayhawks poster behind him?

Victor Ortiz is from Kansas and is a big KU supporter but Malignaggi??

Funny thing is that Paulie's face after a sparring session with 16 oz gloves and head gear looks one million times worse than Pacquiao's perfectly-unmarked face after the Mayweather fight...

So-called boxing experts said that C-level boxers dominate A-level MMA guys in a boxing match... Paulie is at least a C-level.. in sparring where power is minimized Paulie should actually be more effective because of his movement...

Conor clearly marked up a C-level or better boxer with 16 ounce gloves and head gear... So the idea that Conor can't fight C-level boxers is out the window..

I'd love to see Conor spar with a Lara or Rigo type - that would be the best sparring for Floyd actually - an orthodox Lara or Rigo type fighter...

Pauli at this stage is not C Level.

He's old, retired, shot, out of shape and just got folded by Sam Eggington in his last fight.

Your post is all over the place to be honest. Pauli's face is barely marked up especially now more pictures have come out.

Regardless it doesn't prove anything let alone "C class fighters dominating Conor" being out the window.

I'm no expert at reading people but when you watch that interview, Malignaggi looks as though he isn't impressed with McGregor's power.

Yup. He says "good power" as in to be nice. Or that it's not bad. But its definitely not what they're trying to make in the media that mcgregor touches you and you go down lol that may be in the ufc against the caveman that come face first and mcgregor is able to put 100% into his left hand.

Not sure what to make of this. Paulie went 8 rounds with McGregor and Conor wants him back in camp.

This is a shot and out of shape Paulie vs Prime of his life McGregor and the sparring was "good work".

This is what I'm thinking, Mcgregor at this point is supposed to kill Paulie, not just give him a mouse under his eye...

Glad I'm not the only one getting that vibe, Malignaggi has always been someone who speaks his mind and you can see he's holding back
