ARE YOU KIDDING ME. Paulie couldn't KO a flyweight, he has china hands and the worst punching power in boxing. I don't know why a Paulie by KO is even a option in the poll. I'm not saying Paulie can't win but it sure as hell isn't gonna be by KO.
No one is getting KO'ed... Paulie is not a big puncher but he can take a beating like its his job. Diaz struggles with the extra weight and Paulie's speed and Paulie boxes his way to a UD.
Hoping for a Paulie win for some reason even tho Diaz is a good fighter. Think Diaz will get it possibly it on points. Maybe even a late stoppage if Paulie fights like he did against Hatton altho Diaz isnt as strong his stamina is probably better than Rickys now and the accumaltion of shots might give the ref and excuse to call it. Its an interesting fight
Diaz is a -500 favorite. That's pretty crazy considering he's moving up but i think it's warranted. Paulie has zero power and Diaz is going to be in his chest from start to finish. Diaz wide UD.
I see Diaz coming into this fight very focused and ready to apply some serious pressure. He knows how to cut the ring off from his opponents, and will be overwhelming paulie with his high punch output. I'm sure Malignaggi will have some moments, but will never hurt Diaz. Paulie will get stopped in the late rounds, nothing against paulie, but like he even said, It's going to be a mugging!
