 Adrien Broner vs. Paulie Malignaggi Live Boxing

 This Saturday in Brooklyn, New York, WBA welterweight champion, Paulie Malignaggi, 32-4, 7 KO’s, tries to hold onto his title against the “next big thing” in boxing, Adrien Broner, 26-0, 22 KO’s, who is moving up from lightweight to challenge. This is a very compelling matchup with some serious questions posed to both men. The easy pick is Broner, but his reputation hasn’t matched his record, yet. Malignaggi has been around forever it seems. His feather-fisted, charismatic and talented fighter has had ups and downs throughout his career. In 2006, he took on a prime Miguel Cotto and went 12 rounds, taking a beating early but coming on later in the fight.

 Paulie Malignaggi (No. 4) vs. Adrien Broner (No. 1 lightweight, No. 6 P4P)
12 rounds – Welterweight division (for Malignaggi’s WBA title)
Date: Saturday, June 22, 2013
Where: Brooklyn, N.Y. (SHOWTIME), USA.
TV: Showtime Time: 9:00 p.m. ET

He didn’t do enough to win, but did enough to prove that he can go 12 rounds with one of the best in the game. His performance was compared to Hector Camacho’s with Julio Cesar Chavez. They both took beatings but made it to the finish line. After picking up the IBF welterweight title, Paulie would lose to the mauling and powerful Ricky Hatton. It would be the first time that he was stopped. He just couldn’t get a grasp on the Hatton attack and got frustrated and paid the price in the end for it. The next defeat was at the hands of Juan “Baby Bull” Diaz in Texas and the hometown cooking was in effect. Diaz won by a landslide and most observers felt that Malignaggi clearly won. They would rematch Chicago and Paulie would cruise to an easy unanimous decision, correcting the injustice that occurred in the first bout. Malignaggi would get stopped by Amir Khan in 2010, but would rebound with five straight victories over very decent opposition, but Broner seems to be well beyond “decent.” Broner has all of the tools to be a mega star in boxing and has targeted Malignaggi as his first conquest in the welterweight division.

This afternoon at 12:30 pm EDT, streaming live right here on BLH, you can see the full Malignaggi-Broner weigh-in event from Brooklyn, as the Showtime fighters hit the scales for tomorrow night's big card at the Barclays Center. Malignaggi (32-4, 7 KO) and Broner (26-0, 22 KO) will be fighting with a 147-pound limit and Malignaggi's WBA welterweight title in the main event. It's been a long cycle of major trash talk between the two, and it comes to a head tomorrow night. Hopefully there will be no "shoving matches" today, but it's about the only thing the pre-fight hype has been lacking thus far. Also hitting the scales today: Heavyweights Johnathon Banks and Seth Mitchell, and super middleweights Sakio Bika and Marco Antonio Periban. Both fights will be part of the Showtime broadcast, starting at 9:00 pm EDT tomorrow. Showtime Extreme will go live at 7:00 pm EDT with fights featuring Julian Williams, Marcus Browne, and maybe Rau'Shee Warren (he's got the swing bout). You'll also see Jamel Herring, Robert Easter, and others weigh in for their bouts today.
