I Think the problem here is most of you were listening to Kellerman and not really looking at who was doing bigger damage, I am sorry but a fighter gets no credit when there is nothing on his shots, when they are used for nothing more than contact I dont give credit... Close fight still but I had Diaz winning.
I had the same as you ... giving Juan Diaz credit was just to hard to do ... at best he won 3-4 rounds nothing more. 116-112 is as close as it gets.
You can tell who was getting hit more, it was Diaz, and Paulie opened up that cut with a punch, it wasn't an elbow... Diaz face was ****ed up by the end ... Paul was cut as well but didn't bleed as much ... damn what about the punch stats?
Bro they showed the replay where it was a head butt. Diaz also landed the bigger shots but Paulie did land more and looked good out there. Coulda gone either way, but come with facts. The world saw a replay where the cut was caused by a head butt.
Forgive fitz, he will go against the Mexican fighter all the time, he is a Floyd Boy, and loves boxers more than anything.
Still doesn't make it right. At the end of the day he should have an equal chance to win the fight and he didn't get that chance.
Sure but the fight was still close Paulie didnt dominate Diaz and IMO Diaz took it by a round, you cant let a fight be that close knowing the circumstances you know going in is it right? No its not does it happen? you know that it does all the time reminder Castillo vs Mayweather. :hey
Paulie didn't have the power to hurt Diaz everyone knew going in he couldn't win by KO so he had to do what he does best and that's outbox him. Diaz is a warrior and he wasn't going to stop coming. IMO Paulie fought a great fight he boxed beautifully circling and firing his jab keeping the fight at the distance he wanted thus being the general in the ring. I'm a Diaz fan, was at the fight last night and was cheering for him but he didn't do enough to win just following Paulie around not cutting off the ring.
To me well lets say this Paulie did win rounds yes but the first half of the fight was the key and thats where Diaz got off some big big shots, Paulie looked un easy on his legs looked nervous like he wasnt comfortable being where he was. Of course I know he dont have the power to hurt Diaz but the thing is in boxing you dont go into a big fight like this in the back yard of a home town kid like this and expect something to be just given to you, if anything you step your game up and take it from them..... what sux for Paulie is that he doesnt hit that hard, so an effective shot from him may not appear to be effective in teh eyes of a judge.
No Paulie did box he did win alot of rounds close enough to pull it out, I just think that the shots that Diaz did score delivered more damage to them and where more effective and thats what boxing comes down to the cleaner more effective shots.
"It took him a round, but Diaz proceeded to show Paulie Malignaggi who was boss" Houston Chronicle (scored 116-112 for Diaz):huh http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/hotstories/6583601.html
You just don't know boxing. All your post never have facts just dumb ****. You are always biased to the fighter you like. 100 people think Paulie won and 19 think Diaz. Diaz was clearly frustrated with the fight as was his corner. A couple clean shots don't win the fight just because you don't like Paulie style. Also like I said your a idiot so your score doesn't surprise me. It's boxing hit and don't be hit.
Again Diaz was the one all busted the **** up. For at least 2 minutes a round Diaz did nothing. Paulie out threw and out landed Diaz for the fight. Paulie landed a lot of clean punches as well which is why Diaz faced was all ****ed up. Look at Diaz Mom during round 12 and before they read the cards she was crying and praying because Paulie was touching Diaz up. Championship rounds weren't even close.
You know this was not a Diaz fight. When the hell does someone out work Diaz? Diaz landed a few good shots but lets be real he was having trouble finding Paulie because Paulie even with no power for the most part kept the fight at distance.
