Why Malignaggi and not Bradley?

Bradley=Showtime fighter.

 

I thought also that while Bradley rubbished the drug talk his manager said he would want to request more complete testing.

This is a great point though. Nobody want to see Pac fight Paulie. A guy Hatton and Cooto already outclassed.

 

Does he have an exclusive contract with Showtime? Most of Gary Shaw's fighters start out on Showtime, but guys like Dawson and Angulo have recently gone over to HBO. I think a lot of it just has to do with branding, not contractual obligation. It's clearly the best fight that Pacquiao could make for March 13.

 

I dont think he should fight either. Bradley is not there yet and Pac will make short work of Paulie. Maybe its just a ploy to get another accuser to say yes and then show him up when he doesnt want any drug tests for the payday. Probably wont happen. Maybe he will move up to fight Yuri Foreman. Or fight another welterweight.

 

I agree, but that date is rapidly approacing and any sort of Showtime contract would be just another roadblock.

 

good question dont hav an answer for it

 

forget about that stupid Showtime stuff, that can be negotiated. Not only is Paulie a step backward its a contradiction and if this isn't just bluff it proves he really didn't want this fight. atsch

 

Paulie is a poor choice although between his cocky attitude and the elevated level of attention that Pac is getting these days, I could very well see this fight doing very good PPV numbers.

 

:huh I dunno what their thinking. Definetley a step back for Pac.

 

if manny fights feather fist I'm boycotting the fight and I'm a big Manny fan. I will also be disapointed in Paulie for taking the fight after saying he believes manny is on steroid and that you can't beat superman.

 

this isn't even a possibility. its just to make you want the superfight more.

 

Because Pacquiao really isn't 'hurt' by Mayweather Sr.'s mean comments he is just bitching to get out of the fight. And Gary Shaw(Bradley's Promoter) has said that he would also require random blood testing.

 

Why Malingaggi...Because its an easy fight!!!

Why Oscar at 147lbs...Oscar hasn't fought at 147lbs since 2001. Oscar entered the ring in 3-D (Dehydrated, Disoriented and Dead).

Why Hatton...A Human Statue with gloves...and just got knocked out by a fighter with NO Power (Floyd).

Why Cotto...No fighter at 147lbs has worse defense and stamina.

Both Bradley and Devon Alexander have belts at 140lbs...Yet Roach and Pacquiao wants Malignaggi...THAT'S A DAMN SHAME:-(

And Paulie has PUBLICLY said that Manny uses steriods...yet Pacman has No problem with wanting to fight Paulie nor has Manny mentioned filing a Lawsuit against Paulie for these "Outrageous"(yeah right) accusations.
