Paulie "The Magic Man" Malignaggi

I agree. Plus those guys are aggressive and they rush their opponents and overwhelm them. Paulie seems to struggle against those types.

 

yeap i agree , i would have liked to see how he would have fared against a top fighter with a danny garica/kell brook kind of style

 

I dont think he's poor at picking his opponents, he tested himself and that has to be commended, people always comment and say the style was all wrong is just an excuse and/or a wau to devalue their heart in even getting in the ring but to be a world champion and elite fighter not to mention be remembered as a great fighter yoi have to throw down with whomever.

 

yeah everyone goes on like he was battered from pillar to post it was a good tough fight that cotto won by a few points

 

From what I remember Cotto didn't school Paulie too badly, it's just the punches Cotto landed were a lot harder than the ones Paulie landed.

 

Great talker prefer him behind the mic or in the studio, shame he had no power. Great heart, had some beatings against the better fighters but never ducked anyone.

 

Paulie has options outside of the ring, something a lot of his peers don't. He needs to make his way to Canastota (as a patron), and enjoy his success as a commentator. He could do a lot worse.
