Robbed.
I don’t like Paulie, but I’ll tell you what, he was robbed as badly in this fight as I’ve ever seen a fighter robbed. I would have been just as angry.
And he’s got class too, saying that it’s nothing against the fans, but the judges.
Glad he got a rematch.
Agreed. Paulie isn’t my favorite style of boxer but i have a buddy who never shuts up about him because they “box the same”. Funny how people find certain athletes to cling to.

Haha so your buddy can’t crack an egg?
I usually dont watch paulie, for me not a fun guy to watch but i did watch that fight live, to see diaz but i gotta say the kid got whipped. IM glad theyre having an immediate rematch, hopefully paulie gets the decision he deserves
Paulie isn’t all that fun to watch. He’s a good boxer, but watching a guy that you know 1) isn’t going to get knocked out or 2) can’t knock anyone out kind of makes the fight mundane. But I do respect him.

Lmao. I kid with him about Paulie’s lack of power often. He says his style is similar but with knockout power.
Personally I just think he takes to him because they are both young Italians. Boxing fans seem to take to atheletes of their own race more I see in any other sport. Not that… well I mean im not offended by that in any way. It’s cool to look up to a boxer who is similar to yourself.

Of course. Nationality always plays a big part in boxing… that’s why my favorite fighters are Mickey Ward and Arturo Gatti hahaha.
lol Well who could not love Gatti. Man had balls as big as his fists.
The rematch is tonight, I have a feeling Diaz might “actually” win this time…just a feeling…or i could be biased cause Im Mexicam LOL
Malignaggi controlled that fight. Not even close. Glad he got the decision.
Diaz looked bad.
It was so funny when Paulie wobbled Diaz and was in awe, he’s like “I can’t believe I wobbled him!”… But then he just clowned around.
I have to give it to paulie he great ring awarness and conditioning. I guess you have to if you want to win fights without a power punch! haha it seemed like paulie threw more jabs a round then diaz did in the whole fight!

Paulie was clearly the better fighter, it just irritated the shit outta me that he didnt know how to finish Diaz off!
