    I would go with Malinaggi.

    Paz attempted to be some sort of boxer at lower weights but IMO he was only a B-class fighter.
    Paz would have to win on workrate but if Paulie sticks to his jab , Paz would have a problem outpointing him.

    They could fight on the Seaside Heights Boardwalk.

    Paulie is OK. Vinnie is a total guinea hump. I hope Paulie would win but it is possible that Paz just roids up and novocaines up and gets the W.

    I don't get why Paulie gets hated on so much. Yeah he's feather fisted but he's always shown heart and doesn't seem unlikeable outside the ring.

    I think Paulie would win.

    And I agree with Slice that Paulie is a likeable guy. And he's always fought with heart even in defeat.

    I think most here are confusing "more likeable" with "better". I know Paz isn't popular around here, but if you can manage to look past the hate (which leaves Irish out), Paz was a good fighter and more versatile than Paulie. He could win on workrate, but he also could box as well, especially at 135 - 140. I don't see where Paulie is the better boxer. And it's not like Paz takes a back seat to anyone in heart.

    I wish nothing but harm on that guido, but I am inclined to agree that Paz is a better fighter than Malignaggi

    Absolutely I agree. I like Paulie. Not only has he shown a lot of heart in the ring, but yeah he is likeable and quite "real" out of the ring.

    Bizarre he gets so much hate.

    Paulie earned my respect in the Cotto fight. But yeah, he probably loses to Vinny Paz.
