Broner-Malignaggi: War inside and outside the ring

broner58By Hayesa Styles make fights, any Boxing fan knows that, but what happens when both men have a flash, fast, no will to back down attitude? well on the 22nd June we will have the answer to that exact question when Paulie Malignaggi (32-4, 7 KO’s) takes on unbeaten Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s).

Already this is shaping up to be a great fight but much of that is partially due to the war of words being exchanged out the ring. As soon as the fight was announced both men have done nothing but have a verbal onslaught at each other, and neither man looks like they are going to back down.

Malignaggi comes into this fight after a great win against Vyacheslav Senchenko using his speed and jab to out work his opponent and give him the 9th round stoppage and a 12 round split win over Pablo Cesar Cano. Broner on the other hand gave Welshman Gavin Rees a beating and barely broke a sweat last February.

Broner of course goes into this fight the favorite and for me the man who will pick up the win. If he fights at his best I can see a late stoppage. One thing is for sure it’s going to take everything in Broner’s locker to stop Malignaggi, especially if he can reproduce the incredible heart he showed against Miguel Cotto.

It should be an entertaining fight, hopefully even more entertaining than the antics outside the ring, but I can see Broner proving to everyone again why he is Boxing’s next superstar.
