    Hope you enjoy the fight.

    While you make some decent points, your argument is moot when you don't mention that last time out Malinaggi got a gift vs Cano, who has been beaten before and after that bout by old/shot Morales and Mosely. Or you don't mention that Malaniggi has lost against world class opposition, is now probably past prime, a small ww with no power and that Broner is just naturally more skilled, is improving and looks comfortable at the weight. I quite like Paulie but I would be pretty shocked if he won.

    Because 1 - paulie doesn't have the power to earn broners respect and stop him coming forward. 2. he will do what he always do and run.. maybe not to begin with but eventually he'l set into survival mode..

    You can all say well Pauly got dominated by the world class fighters in Khan, Cotto etc. We know AB is a talanted kid but you guys are annointing a kid who has not reached that echelon or even faced any true opposition and saying he is on a Khan and Cotto level so he will do the same to PM.

    The thing is we don't know that for certain. It may come to fruition but as of today you can't throw him up there.

    Then some of you guys are saying well look what Cano did. Like I said before Cano and AB fight differently and styles makes figths.

    So for arguments sake lets say PM lost that fight. So if you lose your last fight does that mean you can't bounce back and win your next fight?

    The guys PM lost to also have a consistent pressure and throw multiple punches.

    AB doesn't come forward providing constant pressure. He comes forward in spurts as he fights of the backfoot a lot. A lot of the time he stands in the middle of the ring using the shoulder roll defense.

    See the gavin reese fight. I mean the little dude was touching him and providing some decent movement which he was having success with until he planted his feet and became stationary which lead AB to get off.

    Look at the Demarco fight. Demarco squares right in front of him and AB stands there and taps him constantly using the shoulder roll.

    In these two fights you neither see the volume nor the pressure that have caused PM trouble in the past.

    Please no, Malinaggi gets KO'd in this one. He's just too past it, and he has zero power. And I don't even think Broner is that good. Even prime for prime Broner KO's him.

    Based on what? because he has KO'ed a bunch of 130 lbs? He is fighting at 147 today.

    Pauly has not been KOyed by Hatton, Cotto or Khan or anyone.

    I mean what are you guys saying that Broner will KO PM basing this on exactly?

    of course Bradley didn't win.

    im saying that Bradley was not going to get robbed if it went to the cards(obviously Bradley did not get robbed).

    if it goes to the cards tonight broner is not going to get robbed.

    keep in mind that feldman is a judge here, the same guy that scored cano 118-109 over pauli.

    in all liklihood your going to have to sweep the remaining two cards to win a decision.

    Paulies got faster feet, but he wont keep Broner honest. I see him making things
    interesting and I doubt Broner stops him, but I see Broner UD.

    yes.

    and that's why people that are predicting a broner ko will probably be disappointed because adrien is not proven at the weight and is going against a guy that is a proven tough guy relative to the weight.

    the over seems to be the most logical play here.

    Yes and pepole that think Broner can UD Pauly I have no real problem with and I am not saying that Broner has no chance but I just like the underdog and I think he is beind underestimated. I mean for Antonio Demarco to be a 3-1 underdog and PM to be an 11-1 or 8-1 against against Broner it just doesn't make sense to me.


    I just don't see this fight ending in a KO.

    But I like the odds and Pauly is a live dog in this fight.

    ok.

    then bet the over.

    pauli is not going to get a decision against broner and hes not going to knock him out.

    you can bet that gbp and broner have already simulated 12 rounds at 147 well before taking this fight.

    if this was against alexander, maidana, Bradley, paq or jmm yes...broner would be tested and possibly lose.

    there is a reason they chose pauli.

    because the know that ab's not going to lose on the cards.

    and they instilled Feldman as a judge just in case.

    like I said if youre so sure that pauli going to go 12 take the over 9.5 at -140

    no.

    the last over/under bet I had was dawson/pascal on the over and after that I swore that I would never bet them again.

    i'll probably throw $100 on it as an action play as I agree with your logic that pauli is going to be okay tonight and survive the 9.5 rounds.

    personally i see this happening.. broner catches paulie at some point, maybe knocks him down, maybe just hurts him.. from this point paulie runs and trys his best to survive, he's very good at this.. so it all depends on how well broner cuts off the ring... i see another ab tko towel being thrown in.
