I think i read somewhere about his health problems, i believe it was in a Haussers article. What is the purpose of all this? Is he really starting over ?:?
I honestly think it's time for a wakeup call for paulie. obviously boxing isnt out of his system and if he still has the desire and ability, by all means continue to fight, but if his campaign at 140 was unsuccessful, particularly because he was unable to stop guys in their tracks with power shots, how does he honestly think he'll fare with bigger, stronger guys? let's not even consider if he loses some spped in his new campaign, because if he does then he's simply a sitting duck
Golden Boy will have to match-make Malignaggi with someone he can beat - the only way to give his career some purpose again - like he is actually fighting for something.

Maybe Paulie thinks going up in weight might help him gain a bit more power whilst keeping speed? If he can keep the speed, slightly bigger slower opponents might be better for him. I think he needs to rebuild before he can challenge anyone of note again, I think he should maybe just try and work on power and planting his feet better, why not? Unless his hands are ****ed still. His chin is great and his heart unbelievable. Im rooting for him, go get em Paulie.
Paulie needs to fight at a higher weight, see if his hands hold up, then try to get back into fighting those tier 1.5-2 guys(tier 1 being Mayweather, Pacquiao, Berto, etc.)
