By Allan Fox: WBA welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi (32-4, 7 KO’s) sees a victory over unbeaten Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s) as giving him a sense of legitimacy to boxing fans and most importantly to himself because some people see Broner as the guy that will be one day in the near future take over for Floyd Mayweather Jr. Broner and Malignaggi will be facing each other in two weeks on June 22nd at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

Maidana in line for Broner-Malignaggi winner, but likely won’t get fight
By Dan Ambrose: Marcos Maidana (34-3, 31 KO’s) did what he had to do last night to stay in the hunt for a shot against the WBA welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi last night by defeating Josesito Lopez (30-6, 18 KO’s) by a 6th round TKO at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California.
Maidana is ranked #2 by the World Boxing Association, and there’s a possibility that he could get a shot against the winner of the June 22nd fight between WBA champion Malignaggi and Adrien Broner. However, the rumors are that the winner of that fight will be facing Shane Mosley instead, and that’s likely to happen no matter who emerges as the winner of that fight.
Rios picks Malignaggi to beat Adrien Broner
By Allan Fox: Former WBA lightweight champion Brandon Rios is picking WBA welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi (32-4, 7 KO’s) to beat unbeaten challenger Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s) this month in their fight on June 22nd at the Barclays Center, in Brooklyn, New York, USA. Rios sees Malignaggi’s experience, mobility and even his power as being too much for the 23-year-old Broner.
Rios said to esnewsreporting.com “Broner hits hard; Malignaggi doesn’t. Malignaggi can box, he can move around and he can also throw punches back. We’re going to see what Broner can do. I’m going with Malignaggi because he’s older and more experienced. I’m not picking Malignaggi because I don’t like Broner. I just think he’s going to win.”

Mosley will get the winner unless he chooses instead to face former WBA super middleweight champion Anthony Mundine (44-5, 26 KO’s) in a fight that would take place in August or September in Australia.
Mosley is reportedly being offered good money for the Mundine fight to face him at 154. Mundine, a middleweight, would drop down 6 pounds to take the fight.
Paulie Malignaggi V Adrien Broner: Why it’s a Great Match-up
By Sevak Sarkisian: As every boxing fan knows, two division world champion Paulie Malignaggi will be stepping into the ring to defend his WBA world title for the second time against undefeated and current WBC lightweight world titlist Adrien Broner on June 22nd at the Barclays Center. Many boxing analysts and fans believe this will be a fairly easy fight for the young 23 year old Broner. However, there are many reasons supporting the contrary.
Adrien Broner clearly hasn’t fought a fighter as accomplished as Malignaggi since facing Ponce De Leon in March of 2011 at 130lbs. Daniel Ponce De Leon put some hands on Broner in that fight and made Broner become hesitant and unsure of himself at times. Paulie is not only a much bigger man than Ponce De Leon, but he also possesses quicker hand speed.
Broner’s trainer wants Marquez or Bradley after Malignaggi
By Chris Williams: Mike Stafford, the trainer for Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s), already has two guys that he’d like to see Broner face after he makes quick work of WBA welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi (32-4, 7 KO’s) next month on June 22nd at the Barclays Center in Brookly, New York.
Stafford wants Broner to face either Juan Manuel Marquez or Tim Bradley next year, whichever one will agree to the fight.
Stafford said to RingTV “We want either Timothy Bradley or Juan Manuel Marquez. Those are the two we really, really wanted. We know ideally we won’t be able to get Manny Pacquiao.”
Malignaggi: I’ll p*** on Broner if I drop him
By Allan Fox: WBA welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi (32-4, 7 KO’s) is talking about taking a leak on challenger Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s) next month if he succeeds in knocking the 23-year-old down in their fight on June 22nd at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
It’s not likely the light hitting Malignaggi will drop Broner. Indeed, it’s more likely to be the other way around with the harder hitting Broner putting Malignaggi down if he connects with a big shot.
Malignaggi said to Worldstarhiphop.com “I’ll p*** on you. Don’t let me drop you because I will lift up my skirt and p*** on you. I promise you that….He’s not very created…he sounds like he’s retarded. He rehearses all his stuff, all his material.”
Malignaggi: Broner has only knocked out smaller guys
By Allan Fox: WBA welterweight champion Paulie Malignaggi (32-4, 7 KO’s) has no worries about the power of his next opponent Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s) on June 22nd next month despite Broner having a knockout percentage of 84.62.
Malignaggi feels that Broner has collected those knockouts over smaller fighters without much talent, and he doesn’t think he’ll be able to duplicate those efforts at welterweight against him and other better welterweights in the division.
