Anyways, what do we think of Malignaggi as a color commentator? I have heard him on a couple cards now and think he is good. I do not know what kind of $$ he is making for the commentating, but if it is close to boxing $$ seems like would be a prudent career move.

I was curious if he had another fight booked, and was shocked to see him and Judah are the main event of a PPV card coming up. This is really a viable PPV main event? I think it is barely the last prelim on a PPV card.
I didn't find Guerrero to be all that competitive even at the beginning. Another in a series of impeccable performances by The Floyd.

Malignaggi is already one of the very best commentators in the sport. He has a big future after he retires imo. As for his fight with Judah, I don't mind it - I think it's kind of an interesting crossroads matchup between two NYC guys who are towards the end of good careers. Also, that will not be on PPV, it will be on regular Showtime.
