Last night, former Two-Time World Champion Paulie “The Magic Man” Malignaggi attended a special Thanksgiving celebration at Barclays Center for community youth.
Malignaggi joined the Brooklynettes, BrooklyKnight and LIU Brooklyn mascot for a special Thanksgiving meal for students from Project Mentor Development Council and Put Down the Guns Foundation (P.S. 161 chapter).
The former champ signed autographs, took photos and spoke to the youth about the importance of believing in yourself and following your dreams.
Malignaggi will see one of his dreams realized when he headlines a night of Brooklyn boxing at Barclays Center on Dec. 7 live on SHOWTIME (8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT) against fellow Brooklynite Five-Time Two-Division World Champion Zab Judah.
