The Sun Rises in The West For Paul Malignaggi
By Thomas Gerbasi - Paulie Malignaggi may wear a Los Angeles Lakers jersey these days as he lives and trains in the City of Angels, but there’s no mistaking that he still carries Bensonhurst, Brooklyn with him everywhere he goes. “I’m a New Yorker at heart,” he said. “I’m from Brooklyn, I still represent Brooklyn, and I even bought a Laker jersey, but it’s a Ron Artest jersey because he’s from New York, so I still keep the New York flavor rolling, even out west.” Malignaggi laughs.
