    Okay guys. First off Malignaggi vs Ndou. Basically Ndou walked around not punching enough and got completely out boxed. I still haven't had a chance to watch it all the way through, but the rounds I saw, Ndou just couldn't handle the speed of Paulie, who was just too good. Makes Cottos victory all that more impressive. Paulie can definitely fight, has a good chin, and threw in good combinations. Some people claim he was running, but not the case at all. He boxed him well, and just picked him apart. I was really expecting something better from NDou. He needed to fire back when Paulie unloaded or tighten up his punches and increase his work rate in close, but really didn't seem to have any plan B what so ever.

    Paulies chin was the most impressive part of the fight! Damn he can take a punch. N'dou had no answers to those crisp combinations; especially from round 7 onwards

    Lucian Bute vs Bika.... Bute is over rated. He won't compete with any of the top guys. The fight was pretty boring, and Bute showed that he doesn't really have great handspeed, power or technical ability that he would need to beat Choc, JC or Kessler. I haven't seen anything from Berrio so I can't really comment, but even if he wins a belt here, I can't see him doing anything in terms of unification.

    Yeah i agree.
    Paulie was most impressive.
    Bute is slightly overrated. He aint gonna beat any of the top 2 IMO.
    He will struggle against Mundine too.

    maybe mundine should try fight him, he will get exposure out of it, and plus it will stop him from fighting rubbish like nieves
