Comments Thread For: Malignaggi: Piece of **** MMA Community Will See Lobov in Coma

[Combat Talk Radio]

Good luck Paulie. If all else fails, just kick him in the balls as hard as you can.

No kicking allowed. He can just square up and punch that area like Crawford did to Khan though.

But didn't he say Lobov has "no bawlz"?

I haven't posted here in 10 years. Today, my comeback to Boxing Scene, I see Pauline Malignaggi threatening people with comas in a bare knuckle fight...lol.

Time sure changes things.

That is a long time. Damn. What's that - half of Floyd's career? LOL

You missed some very entertaining threads though. Especially Ward/Kov 1, Ward/Kov 2, Pac/Horn, Canelo/G 1, Canelo/G 2 and MayPac. Oh, and Mayweather/Nasukawa.

Well if were talking street fighting then grappling isnt the best idea, because at least where i live everyone stabs people. And if youve got some basic grappling skills maybe you could handle another smaller, basci grappler. But if you're talking about a Paulie equivalent in the MMA sense 70lbs wont save you.You wouldn't be pinning hes wrists, youd be trying to find a way to get him off your back. And good grapplers can choke you out without their hands mate, triangles ect are pretty effective. Just like you say a 130lbder could outbox you, a 130lb decent grappler will outgrapple you my man. Theres a good vid of a 140kg wrestler getting handled by an elite wrestler, about 70kg on youtube in a comp. Skills still pay the bills.[/QUOTE

If you’re a 200 lb plus man who can handle himself than you know what you possess against any 130 pounder in the world. If Paulie was 200 lbs and can fight, I’m sure he’ll do well in the octagon even with refs. I’m sure with my OPINION that he can find a way for the ref to stand them back up due to inactivity on the ground because Paulie nullifies all the blows and grabbing due to his size.

Hey, we all got opinions, but weight ain't as protective as you might think against a high level grappler. Its a sport like any other.If you think a 70lb weight advantage alone protects you from takedowns and submissions, let alone leg kicks and knees than thats up to you. But a visit to a real MMA gym will change your mind, if you're open to learning about it.

It is only BS if you realize that we whitewash our favorite support plenty to mask it's TRUE brutality. Paulie is 100% trying to maximize his earnings here. I cant sit here and judge the fighter for what they say and turn around and take pleasure in the brutality they dish out. As a fan, I knowingly accept it all instead of picking the parts I like and ignoring the ones I don't.

Theres no need for it to be part of the hype. Its still a combat sport, and its not helping anyone talking about killing people. Its an image that does nothing good at all. Ive boxed myself, and seen people badly damaged. Its bad taste, its ammunition for the ban it brigade, it doesnt help the sport find sponsorship, and spitting at someone outside the ring is dirty, classless and assault. Standards are there for a reason. I dont want to see people calling for deaths, i dont want to see people getting hurt in the crowd, which happens when the wrong crowds are attracted to your sport. And you want a commentary team who are sensible and unbiased, not emotionally unstable and lacking sportsmanship. You dont need it, and its legitimate to reject trashy behavior.
