Errol Spence should not fight Vergil Ortiz, according to Paulie Malignaggi

Despite the Texan’s past achievements, ‘The Magic Man’ thinks he’d be in a lot of trouble against the knockout artist.
On an episode of Boxing Scene Today, he explained: “You’re gonna get him run over like a train by Vergil Ortiz? Is that really entertaining to anybody? I’m personally not interested in the fight at all.
“I don’t think it does anything for anybody, except maybe Vergil; it elevates him with another big win. I think it’s an easy fight for Vergil.”
