Paulie Malignaggi vs Keith Thurman

haha. hey Lora may ranked 126 but that doesn't mean he can't take a punch.

 

Based on what we have seen from both Thurman, and Karas, hell yes he is.

 

The Broner hype disgust me more than Thurman hype. I've been seeing Broner along with names of FLoyd jr and have fantasy fights with him which was just flat out insane.

I think everyone knows that Thurman is not ready for top 5 guys in the world yet but he did call the right people out in the correct order though which i thought was cool. He said Paulie, Tim, and then Mayweather LMAO when i heard it. He may be overhype but I seeing him passing the Paulie test though. He is no where near Bradley though.

 

Looks bad for a fighther with 18 fights and 17 knock outs.Especially when you call out 2 of the top dawgs in the pfp list.Had maidana been in there instead of lora, this would be a non issue as im pretty sure maidana wouldve got that guy the **** out of there in less than 8 rounds.

 

History suggests Bronetards will jump on the next dick once broner gets laid out.

 

I hope they do make Thurman the favorite. I'll bet 10000 vcash on Paulie :smoke

atschatschatsch when has Paulie cherry picked opponents? Cotto, Khan, Hatton?

 

My bet is that they will.

 

Paulies to slick.He can win by just jabbing all night.

 

exactly and I'm pretty sure Paulie can take Thurman's punch also as long as he doesn't gas out which Thurman is much more likely to do.

 

You pretty much prove the point I am making. I said cherry picking from here out. He lost to all of the top fighters he fought. He won't fight these types again. That is until he loses the title and needs to fight for it again.

 

I bet Paulie fights at least one of these guys within a year:

Thurman
Brook
Alexander
Khan rematch
Maidana

I'd love to see him fight Josesito Lopez, but I doubt he'll get a shot after losing to Canelo

 

Well, he's been called out. Let's see what he does. Thurman would be a perfect choice for his upcoming showcase. He won't do it though. Even if any of those others were available, he wouldn't pick them either.

I think Salita is a foregone conclusion. Now that is a cherry pick.:good

I actually like Paulie, but no way is he bonafide top 10 ww.

Peace

 

Malignaggi would beat Thurman if they fought right now, he's too skilled and experienced for Thurman.

Thurman looked decent but not great against Lora who is an ok opponent. He did what he had to against Lora but I don't think he made any major statement. Still a prospect to keep an eye on but not one of the elite ones at this point.

This would be a good fight for Malignaggi, I think he'd beat Thurman and keep his name alive for other big money fights. I don't know if HBO/Showtime would buy it though.

 

Thurman hasn't impressed me or shown anything that would suggest he'd do anything vs Malignaggi besides getting outboxed from a distance for 12 rds. Paulie would win by very wide decision. I think Thurmans power isn't all that either, Paulie took bombs from Hatton and Cotto, he'd handle Thurmans best no problem.

 

:good

We've got Thurman in seek and destroy mode against tomato cans on Youtube, and then we've got him trying to play the devastating counterpuncher against Lora and just coming off looking like a goon.

(yet you'll find some clowns saying that based on all that he's this versatile guy who can do it all, box and punch! )

Nothing so far has spoken to him being able to adapt to the top level.
