Can paul have one final run at glory under trainer Kenny porter?

I hope so. Whoever handled this kid sucked ass. How can u be white, Italian 49-0 and broke? Something was wrong there. I don't go to WV fights no more but I heard they got him a loss with some South American beast that no one ever heard of. If u go. A get the kid a tough fight, get it on TV where there's some $ to be made. Whoever matched that is a retarded imbecile.

I hope Spadafora can retire with some $$$. Get him 1 more big fight please. Just don't have it be against Sammy Vasquez, Danny Garcia or Lucas 'rat tail' Mattyhsse. That would be suicide.

It's good to see he's training with Porter. Porter got his kid a championship. Whoever trained and promoted him here in Pittsburgh did a rotten job. Hopefully the change ain't too late. Time don't wait for no one and Spaddy ain't no spring chicken no more. I just hope that speed and slick D ain't gone.
I been saying for years, they shoulda had an all Italian scrap against Paulie Malignacii. But the promoters and powers that be have the creativity of my left nad.

Go Spaddy! Go get what you deserve

Is he definitely broke?

I been hearin that for years but what the hell do I know. I rarely leave my house let alone know what's in his checking account. I'd bet my last $ he ain't got 5k in his bank account

Isn't he training some guys now? Seem to recall him in someone's corner recently. He should probably concentrate on that being almost 40 at this point & fighting guys few have heard of. His career & decent human being IQ is semi-retarded at best, but obviously this cat has a high boxing IQ. He should use that knowledge for some young guys. And age is the best cure for stupid ass behavior so maybe he can provide some insight to his boxers to with his wasted talent.

I think Paul is basically done & should just hang them up. He hadn't fought a respectable opponent for his talent level in a decade & then lost the first fight he got vs a respectable opponent last year. Now he's back to fighting bs guys. I imagine Paul to be just a crazy mfer for the most part & I imagine crazy mfers tend to burn bridges like an arsonist with unlimited matches so I don't foresee much chance of some sort of HBO or Showtime type option becoming available.

That's a damn shame. A kid here in Hazelwood hood said he was training for a fight in Vegas.
Maybe he's a trainer. Who knows. If he retired without making a buck, shame on his team forever.
Disgraceful

He could make some decent money being the Darnell Boone of 140-147. Hate that it has to come down to this.

no, shame on him, he's the guy couldn't help acting like a douche

Keep your eyes peeled for Geno Spadafora.

This is him at 5yrs old with Paul.

He's 9 now & has had a handful of amateur bouts already. Paul almost made it to the Olympics, maybe Geno gets there in 2024 (assuming amateurs can even get in by then).

no he makes a fine living at his other job making pizza pies

if he is ready to travel, i'm sure he'll have offers if he gets busy vs reasonable opposition

I don't know which of yinz are right or wrong wit your info but I just hope Paul gets a big $$$ fight then retires. As long as that fight ain't against Vasquez or Mattyhsse. He wouldn't have no time to enjoy
the $ cause he'd be seriously injured

Is it Sammy Vasquez that he is training or have I dreamt that? Other possible nonsense is that he trains Rod Salka, not sure on either, may have just made them up!

Actually would make sense if he trained Salka with the Pittburgh link

Spaddy ain't never been in Sammy Vasquez's corner in all the fights I seen. I always see Sammy has the little guy named Muscles, the black Army coach, and the local Irish looking cutman. I ain't seen Spaddy in Salka's corner against Meza-Clay. But I did see him in Salka's corner when Salka got whacked against Garcia. Against Meza Clay, Salka had a revolving door of trainers go in there. Every time I looked at the break there was some different cat in there giving instructions. Not sure what that was all about...I guess it worked cause he got the W. Both Salka and Clay bled like stuck pigs in that war. If Spadafora trained Salka for the Clay fight, he wasn't in that corner that night.

He can't just be "The Army Coach", no; he has to be the BLACK army coach.

X2. Have no sympathy for him whatsoever. Anyone who shoots their pregnant girlfriend doesn't deserve any sympathy.
