LOl no way! Literally the worst person Malignaggi could lose a fist fight with a random person on the street he doesnt have the power to stop you punching back, hes going to get ktfo
So you think Malignaggi going into bare knuckle boxing is good? Hes 38 years old and has no power, could end badly for him, plus he has nothing to gain even if he wins its abit embarrassing for someone who was a world champion
Is he the only real boxer to sign with them? I remember BKB hosted some pretty solid names: Rosado, Vera, Soto Karass, and Granados, off the top of my head. I think Rosado was probably their biggest name.
Bare knuckle, you don't have to hit hard to do real damage, you just have to be accurate and have technique. I honestly can see Paulie doing a bit of damage, but it's also stupid, because he's just going to fuck up his hands, and risk taking a shot that could do real damage to his health.
Bare knuckle just isn't clever, and I don't get why people do it.
People here are full of shit. If a boxer of Paulie's calibre hit you bare knuckle he'd fuck you up. I know he didn't have knockout power in the ring but the reality is a bloke of his ability will hit harder than the average person with a bare fist.
Yeah, but the other guy's gonna' be punching BACK, and Paulie isn't young & fast any longer. He had brilliant defensive moves in this prime, but in his last six or so fights he got tagged a TON. A completely different fighter. - And his last bout was 2 years ago.
He won two meaningful titles and defended in different weight classes. Held his own with younger future champs and top WWs for years. It's time a handful of you shut the fuck up, sit back, and wait for the most decorated champion to compete in Bare Knuckle Boxing. What Boxing use to be is coming back so the former champ deserves our support. If he gets knocked out or TKO'd I'm not going to feel as bad this time he's out there testing himself and the waters in Bare Knuckle. God bless him this is a big deal. Since the sport came back it is only natural we see people from different backgrounds compete.
Not something I'd do, but he'd of weighed up the offer against perceived threat - what's the talent pool like? And decided it was worthwhile.
I don't think age play into it much some may think as not gonna be throwing as many shots, or power side as can't load up too much. Think Paulie do alright.

Malinaggi is a poor representative but I want to see more prospects or actually good amateurs to compete. Pro boxing isn't an accurate showing of what boxing is like in a street fight
Any of you watch this stuff? It's on YouTube. I saw on YouTube that Chris Leben, who I think is one of the champions, will be joining BKFC. Anyways, the fights were a bit more lackluster than I imagined. Fat dude got cut fast as hell and started bleeding everywhere. The match ended really quick after that.
I saw one of Chris Leben's fights, and the guy literally thought it was a fucking wrestling match. It was very bizarre. The knockout was pretty good, though.
