The robbery that wasn't, why Malignaggi is a massive toid and why Pig Tits slaps Poorly into an early grave

Take 1.8

This is the rematch that the fans demanded even though the first fight wasn't much to write home about and was only controversial to the feebleminded and sight impaired.  After Juan "Pig Tits" Diaz slapped his way to a messy unanimous decision againstPaulie "Poorly" Malignaggi in August many thought Malignaggi deserved the nod.  The many were wrong. They gave way too much credit to Malignaggi for his powderpuff punches.  Thing is, one of the judges Gale E. Van Hoy scored it 110-118, only giving Malignaggi two rounds which was silly so everyone starts screaming 'robbery'. Anyway, such illogical hysterical flimflam has pushed Juan Diaz's price out to 1.8 - he really should be about 1.6.

"You have to bear in mind when scoring a fight that there is an emphasis on 'clean effective punching' and while Diaz can be a grunting slapping fuck Compubox shows he was outlanding Paulie with power punches 123-80."

To deal with the so-called robbery of the first fight: you have to bear in mind when scoring a fight that there is an emphasis on "clean, effective punching" and while Diaz can be a grunting slapping fuck Compubox shows he was outlanding Paulie with power punches 123-80.  The supposedly much busier Malignaggi only outlanded Diaz overall by 13 shots.  And if you want to talk about who is the most effective puncher 5 KOs in 26 fights for Poorly against 17 in 35 for Diaz tells you exactly how much pop there is in their fists.  Paulie, flashy and amateurish with no power.  They'll put that on his tombstone.

People are simply overreacting to Malignaggi not looking like shit for a change. Don't forget that Diaz was beating the great Marquez up to round nine when he got knocked out and has a very high work rate which does tend to get him rounds in the bag.  He had a bit of an off night last time around, Paulie was at his absolute best and I still had Diaz winning.  Paulie always finds a way to screw things up - his best chance to beat Diaz was in the first fight. He gets hit too often, loses focus and doesn't have the power to back his opponent up.1.8 is good business.
