Even Zelenoff's fights are filmed! Maybe if Paul trades up for a better manager he can land a spot on the undercard of one of Riddick Bowe's parking lot rumbles.
I went and seen a handful of Spadafora fights, he fought at the David L. a couple times, and I even met him once at a bar. You could tell he grew up in the streets, just by the way he talked and acted, overall nice guy though. I never thought Spadafora was anything special, not much power, ok defense, fast hands, pretty good foot movement, and a decent chin from what I saw. I think the fact he went life and death with Leonard Dorian, and Gatti was able to knock him out with one body punch, kinda tells you something.
Actually Acri tried a lot to make Paul a household name. It's his fault he wa san idiot,getting drunk all the time and doing all the **** he has done. And what has he to show for it?33 years old,a belt and 7 years in prison.
It was a different story.Dorin was way to small for 140 and wasn't motivated when he fought Gatti. He was howevr undefeated as a lightweight and ranked no 3.
Not a big fan of the guy, but thats a good comparison. Though I do think Malignaggi has a much cooler hairstyle and fashion sense.:yep
He's been in prison twice. Once for shooting his girlfriend in the stomach and again later for violating parole. He got released early both times. I don't know the circumstances behind him shooting his girlfriend but would like to see someone administer a beat down. From what I've seen of Spadafora in the ring is that he's a slick boxer. They say he once whipped up on Floyd Maywether Jr in sparring. Maybe he could fight someone like Mayweather or Malignaggi to see where he's at.
Dorin was past it aswell. Not so much physically but when you're not mentally in it it's not gonna work.
