Better boxer...Yes. Winner....Arguable. I give him props. The fact of the matter is Diaz was equally impressive which made it very close. He landed the bigger shots, fought through the cut and found a way to land against one of the quickest fighters in the game. Diaz should never have hung in the fight if you look at it for face value. Diaz is shorter, less reach, he is a little pudgy Mexican and he still managed to find a way to land big at certain points. I think the fight was damn close and could have gone either way. The mockery of the outcome wasn't that Diaz won, it wasn't that Paulie lost, it was the idiotic judges that proved Paulie never had a chance without a KO. Even Paulie's team said they would have been satisfied had Diaz edged him on the cards. The fact Diaz won ain't the problem and Paulie did not outclass him. If he did not by much to where it was a robbery.
they would have been satisfied cuz they knew it was corrupt...118-110 makes u wonder why they even bother fighting...paulie won the fight
I don't blame Paulie for being pissed off on a decision like that, the real question though is how are douchebags like the judges from last night going to be allowed to judge another fight down the line
How was it not close? Paulie will tell you it was a close fight. I honestly have no clue what fight most of you were watching.
It WAS a close fight. The only bad judging card was 118-110. I felt both fighters deserved to win, I had it a draw i could have had it 115-113 Paulie or Diaz. It was a very close fight.
