I think that is good enough to deserve a shot against tim bradley, headline HBO PPV. The time is NOW.
I'm a big Paulie fan. He's with Golden Boy. Bradley is with Top Rank. Even if it would be a solid Showtime/HBO headliner if it had another good co-feature, being the promotional fit isn't worth it, just go fight other guys. Paulie is doing his thing, waiting for a Hatton rematch. Nobody like Bradley, Mayweather, Pac, anybody like that is going to fight him for various reasons, so he's probably doing the right thing. Honestly, I guess I would still rather see Hatton/Paulie for whatever reason over Paulie against, who is out there to fight, Kell Brook, Alexander, or the Berto/Guerrero winner? Also, I scored the Cano fight to Paulie by 1 point.
if hatton destroys schenko or whatever his name is, that would be a good rematch. I just want to see paulie get 1 more big fight
He got a hometown gift his last fight. Anybody with a pair of working eyes and any knowledge of boxing could see Cano was robbed. Paulie's fights are boring to me. He floats like a butterfly and stings like one too with his total lack of punching power and PPV would take a bath with him headlining a card.
Malignaggi will probably get Hatton wich will be a big fight. GBP took a risk with Paulie after he lost to Khan. Now that gamble seems to have paid off because officially Paulie has a 5 fight win streak and holds a title.
Last time I checked his 3 best opponents he's faced he's lost to. Two in rather embarrassing fashion as well. Don't try and pretend that Paulie is some kind of world beater. He's a champion, but will never quite be good enough to beat the very best.
***inaggi is getting KO'ed by a Brit in the very near future, my money's on Special K but Hatton, Khan or Burns could stop him no problem ...
