According to The Scene, this fight is a possibility for Dec. 7th at the Barclays Center in what would be the co-feature to Amir Khan vs. Devon Alexander. Personally, I don't think this is a great clash of styles. I'd rather see the proposed Judah-Peterson fight materialize.
this fight has been talked about from fans for years in hypotehtical matches and it's finally about to happen
would be an entertaining technical fight, honestly im sitting at about 50/50 right now but id edge my mind in judahs favour
Depends on which Judah turns up, if its the one against Garcia then I can see Judah taking the decision if not then I think a split decision for Paulie!
as a judah fan I hate to admit this. but he does great against guys with little power. still though, malignaggi still has a lot of boxing talent left. I'm excited nonetheless
Paulie works too hard for Zab to beat him. Paulie would pepper him all day with combos and zab would have his moments but ultimately get tired and lose a decision.
I think in Judah has more problems with power punchers than with boxers, his skill set is pretty good. His problem I see is he likes to slug it out sometime and end up getting caught. Against Khan I blame the Ref in that fight he got hit low and it was call a knock down. Anytime Judah got inside the Ref imediately call for a break so, Judah never was allowed the opportunity to work on the inside. If Judah just boxes smart it should be a long night but easily won fight for him. For Paulie he never should have lost to Broner, the fight he chose to fight gave him that lose. Paulie plan was to just out work Broner, to to that he threw a bunch of meaningless punches. If he would have used a strong Jab and priesice punches he could have easily won that fight. Paulie took more punches than he should have because of his attempt to out work Broner left him in the position to be hit. If he comes in against Judah the same way expect the same result but I would expect Paulie to be a little more beat up.
:happy Brooklyn, STAND UP. I might bus down for this if there are cheap (or heck, available) seats. It'll be a packed house and great atmosphere.
