    I think it was his style and the fact he couldn't hurt him. Malignaggi used great movement and baffled Juan. Speed kills and Juan could never get off.

    Most any fighter with good power would kill Paulie. Diaz caught Paulie flush at least 10 times in that fight. Diaz just doesn't have the snap to take him down.

    Had Paulie loaded up on his right and threw it more he could have seriously busted Diaz up even more. With the way Diaz likes charging at his opponents Valero will KTFO Diaz with 2-3 flush shots and shock a lot of people how easy he makes it look.

    I felt the same way before the fight and figured a one handed fighter had reached his peak. He showed last night he is more than smoke and mirrors. Only two fighters Hatton and Cotto have put it on him and he showed great heart. There are no Hattons or Cottos in the current 140lb division. Though I see Bradley as someone who could put alot of pressure on him.

    The only reason Paulie lost to Hatton is because he doesn't have any power.

    Paulie landed flush left hooks repeatedly, he would of stopped him had he had power.
