On June 10th Paulie Malignaggi waged a 12 round war with undefeated Miguel Cotto.What most people didnt know was what would soon follow after the oppening bell.Malignaggi showed more heart and courage then anyone thought he would that night.Malignaggi proved the few things in boxing you cant teach he has.Heart and a Chin.Paulie came up short that night but what that fight did was create a launching pad for the future.''That fight i think really in a way made me even bigger,Yeah i lost the fight but i also think i gained more support, more fans, and more notoriety for being a true tough guy in this sport''Malignaggi said.''Like i said before i see me and Cotto meeting up again.Its a fight that needs to happen for me so i can get some closure and also show the fans what i can do.''.That is the sound of a man who is hungry to erase that blotch on his record one way or another.Cotto won the fight that night but in a way we had two winners.We had Cotto who was the legit winner.Then we had Malignaggi who is becoming more and more popular show he has what it takes to be a superstar in this sport.''I feel that i can be a top 5 p4p fighter in this sport,i love my fans and i wanna thank them for all the support and just let them know Magic never fades away,it always keeps showing you the tricks.''

Malignaggi got alot of respect from boxing fans after the fight... i thought he was just a trash talker with no skills but he showed alot of skills & heart. I thought Malignaggi won the fight, but the judges saw the other way... when he comes back, he shouldn't have any problem dominating 140lbs division.Comment

Paulie made a fan out of me with that preformance.
I thought he made the fight very close, and in a bigger ring he may have pulled it off.
Either way, I'll be watching whoever he fights next.Comment
