DiBella fires right back at Cestus!

When told about Cestus Management's recent press release discrediting undefeated junior welterweight Paul Malignaggi as a challenger to undefeated WBO junior welterweight champion Miguel Cotto, Paul Malignaggi's promoter Lou DiBella told Boxingtalk.com, "Cestus Management? Who the f**k are they? We tried to get Frighty Mike Arnaoutis in the ring with Malignaggi for a Boxing After Dark and he priced himself out asking for hundreds of thousands of dollars to make the fight. He said he wanted the fight and then priced himself out. When you price yourself out of fights, the world passes you by. The new WBO rankings which now reflect the boxing lesson Paulie gave Camarena hadn't come out yet, so tell Arnaoutis to pound sand and go back to Shobox, because he hasn't progressed beyond that level yet."
