    I think if Khan is "let off the leash" he will be surprised what happens. Not saying he'll get KTFO, but I think he'll come off worse. He hasn't got that one punch power to KO Paulie, and he has got a very dodgy chin. You speak of punches you don't see coming from Khan, which is true, but why isn't this the same for Paulie? Paulie is quicker than average too, he wobbled Cotto with a shot Cotto didn't see, he floored Ndou with a shot Ndou didn't see in their 2nd fight and Ndou has a pretty solid chin. He rocked Diaz with an uppercut. He made Hatton pause for a second lol, but there is evidence to say that Paulie can hurt and floor fighters with good chins therefore he can floor Khan.

    IMO people are seriously underrating Malignaggi. He seen as a fighter without power and people just come to their conclusion without thinking about what else he brings to the table.

    Paulie doesnt have ko power, but he can certainly buzz a fighter, but isnt that the problem, with his notorous hand problems, if he buzzes khan, theres a chance of him going for a ko, owning to Khans chin problems, and doing some major damage to himself.

    Khans got super stamina, i know he looked tired in the last rounds against Kotelnik, but supposedly he's the fittest in the wildcard gym, supposedly able to climb some set of steps in LA twice as many times as the others, and we know the fitness levels of Pacquiao.

    I thought Diaz won the fight by two points, so IMO Malignaggi did not win the fight and I know that other people agree. Obviously it's a matter of opinions, but the fight wouldn't even be discussed as much if it wasn't for 'that' card and Paulie's reaction afterwards.

    Why though? Malignaggi's been doing that **** his whole career. Khan's gonna be the one chasing, he's not gonna be going in and out. Also, Paulie's whole career has been based on his reactions/reflexes and speed. If anyone's quick enough to react it'll be him.

    The hand problems have to be forgotten about. You can't fight thinking you might hurt your hands if you throw. Also I think the last time Paulie hurt his hand was against Ndou the second time. Quite some time ago.

    I don't think stamina is an issue for either fighter.

    Come on dude, though i respect ur opinion, paulie got robbed, judges in texas have a history of favouring the hometown fighter and yeh ur right the fight was close but paulie was still a winner by 2/3 rounds

    matter of opinion dude but i honestlythought the ruling on the fight was bull****, and though im not a fan of paulie and think hes a crackwhore gimp in braids i was totally supportive of his outburst after the fight and agreed he got shafted

    well see my friend either way should be a good fight, we have different opinions on how the fight should go. Fights hardly ever go according to plan anyway so lets wait and see :bbb

    It wasn't a "robbery" if the "fight was close" and the scoring of the fight is open to your interpretation. Boxing Monthly has it to Diaz, posters on here like TFFP, Brown Bomber, Mandanda, GazOC etc. had it to Diaz.

    I'm not going to discredit anyone's opinion of who won that fight, because you score it based on what you like. Some people liked Diaz' aggression, some liked Malignaggi working on the back foot and his defence.
