    He is a GREAT fighter and everything a Boxing fan should look for.

    He has great speed. He is technically brilliant, but with momentary lapses that keep the fights exciting from him getting hit and/or sometimes brawling. His chin is made of granite. He is a great personality and a crack up. The only thing he is lacking is power. There is far more good than anyone can hate on.

    Malignaggi, Judah, Mayorga, etc... deserve more respect. These are the men without which we would not have great fighters.

    a very boring mediocre boxer with no power who actually has a following because he can sale himself

    What is this madness? :huh Mosley is an elite level fighter. Why don't you go ahead and lump RJJ and James Toney in here? :bart

    Fading and being a solid B level fighter are two totally different worlds. :deal

    So do you rate Malignaggi on the same level as Judah and Mayorga? Are you sure? And why people disrespecting Mosley so much? Mosley in his prime was top boxer.

    Malignaggi has a helluva chin, and hella heart, but his lack of power has been detrimental to his career, as far as his big fights go. I think he could have beaten Cotto (yes!) if he had decent power, and could have made the Hatton fight a lot more interesting. Khan would have kicked his ass regardless, though.

    Neither. He would be a really good fighter if he had some power though.

    People don't understand that he needs that loudmouth to promote himself, because he doesn't have the KO power to do it for him.
