Who would win in an MMA fight? Amanda Nunes or Paulie Malignaggi
I don't follow fight sports a lot but I recently saw that the former pro boxing champ Paulie Malignaggi had a feud with the MMA community after he supposedly lost a boxing sparring match to Conor McGregor years ago and got mocked for it. He wanted to get back by challenging a lower level MMA fighter Artem Lobov to a bare knuckle boxing match but lost the fight and ended up embarrassed again. To his defense, he is very old and had a lot of hand injuries, but it's still very humiliating to get beaten in what is basically his own sport IMO.
Considering his feud with MMA community, do you think he could at least beat a top female MMA fighter under MMA rules? What do you think would happen if Amanda Nunes fought Paulie Malignaggi in MMA? |

Nunes by submission, she is a black belt in jiu jitsu
Malignaggi doesn't look very strong but he would always have the chance of KO if he landed a punch. |

Nunes would ragdoll him, it wouldn't be competitive

He's six years older than her with a small one inch advantage in height and reach. If they fought at MMA featherweight, he'd have to come down a couple of pounds while she could go up like she did in the Cyborg fight. He doesn't have that many KO's to his credit and he would have to have puncher's luck to beat her before she could bring him to the ground. I say Amanda wins by submission or ground and pound.

I would back Nunes, if she fought smart, she would take him to the ground where her chances of victory would increase astronomically.
If she stood and traded, her opponents chances of victory would increase. "The most likely time to be KO'd is when your trying to KO someone yourself". -Rener Gracie. |

Wow it looks like Amanda comfortably winning. Very embarrassing for the male boxer.
What about other girls like Valentina Shevchenko? |

Paulie is not (and never was) a heavy hitter and now well past his physical prime, is timid to throw hard punches as his hands are so brittle. Pure striking I'd obviously favour Paulie and Boxing rules is a bit of a no-brainer but bearing in mind they are basically equal in size and Paulie is unlikely to land a KO punch from the off, plus is physically past his prime and has little to no grappling skill, I'd give Amanda a solid 66% chance of getting him down and submitting him. No offence but I also must say for me personally there is less appeal in F/M fighting where the female has basically given up or does not care about her femininity. Paulie vs. McMann or Tate is a more appealing match up on the basis that they are more attractive women and still have skills that could potentially defeat him. |
