“The MMA Hour.”<\/a> During his appearance, Schaub said he scored the fight for Malignaggi:<\/p>\n“I thought it could’ve went either way. I kind of edged Paulie out with three rounds. I thought he did enough to win three rounds. Wasn’t the excitement and the fireworks I was hoping for. I thought Paulie fought very \u2014 kind of timid. He fought very boxer-ish<\/em>. Especially only having five rounds. He started off at like a 12-round pace. I thought he was very slow, methodical, kind of outclassed him, outpointed him just throwing jabs. I thought ‘alright if this what he wants to do, that’s great.'”<\/p>\nBrendan Schaub went on to say that while he thought the fight didn’t necessarily live up to expectations, he still gave kudos to BKFC.<\/p>\n
“Then Artem was really hesitating. You could see he couldn’t get Paulie’s timing down. He was kind of whiffing. I don’t know, I thought it was weird exchange. I thought the whole thing was kind of awkward. I can see how you gave it to Artem. I wasn’t mad at the decision. As much as I like to make fun of bare-knuckle, I thought the pacing was good. I don’t know what the broadcast was like cause I didn’t have volume, but I thought the pacing of the show was good. I thought the overall product was not terrible.”<\/p>\n
With the win, Lobov is now 2-0 in bare-knuckle boxing. During his post-fight speech, Lobov made it clear that he’s gunning for BKFC gold.<\/p>\n
