    He breaks down fights in a very knowledgeable way, talks about fighters, styles, strengths and weaknesses... Most importantly he doesn't have a bias and he is not afraid to pull any punches.

    Totally agree. Doesn't get too excited, is very professional and diplomatic too. Snappy dresser also !

    Paulie is a little *****. I haven't seen a bigger beta in boxing.

    I like him, he's insightful and articulate, doesn't just root for the in network fighter either.

    He has his haters of course because he doesn't sugar coat things and tells you what he thinks straight.

    What a sad fact. :ohno

    Nah, I like him. He can get on my nerves but he is knowledgeable and says it how he sees it, regardless of network bias. He was boring as **** though, and I often rewatch the Hatton fight. :p

    He's probably the best and no one could accuse me of being a fan of his given my track record for shitting on him.

    He would be ok if he hadn’t lost to that UFC reject (that completely suck) in that bare knuckle fight, now I can’t take him serious and feel that it’s embarrassing to have him as commentator in boxing.

    I recorded his first fights on VHS back in early 2000's. Damn he was quick. Sadly his lack of power did not allow him to rule as a P4P. But he was very good.

    Always liked and respected paulie for his boxing IQ. And also big respect for being 2 time world champ. One of the best commentators around. Very insightful. Also interested to see if he gets back into the bkfc. He is rumored too this summer.

    Terrific commentator, the best around since Manny Steward passed away.

    He actually talks about the fight, which is better than most who talk about some story or outside the ring stuff while a ****ing fight is going on.
