Then they should of booked a date with Matthysse. Maybe they were hoping for Barrera to come out of retirement for a fight.

If the man's hurt, he's hurt...the fight got postponed, so not to worry Judah is still going to get his ass beating that so many here are dying for him to recieve. The implication that any championship level fighter would duck Zab ****ing Judah, is hilarious to me. I'll fight Amir Khan but Zab Judah...**** no, I'm scared shitless of that guy. LOL, be serious.

Doesn't have to be called a duck, but there is a possibility that training wasn't going well and not enough time to make weight.

I think the Zab fight had more to do with Schaefer and GB trying to set the Garcia's up for failure. They have been a thorn in there sides since Danny ko'ed Khan, and then tore Khan down as a fraud to the public ; by Garcia taking a loss that would then validate Khan since he already beat Zab. We all know they dont trust khan to avenge any of his l's, let alone vs a massive puncher in Garcia


Honestly I'm not mad one bit about the pullout, like people forget Zab damn near aint throw a punch vs Khan, quit then blames the ref, how is a young champ supposed to get up for a fight like that, IMO it had set up all over it, and I'm sure the Garcia's probably seen it, pulled out to give them some hand(upper) in this situation, why fight Zab and clean up Matthysse trash while LM fight cans

How about he's a professional. Or how about he's getting paid (don't know how much) but for making more than many people for 36 minutes max on fight night. That should be enough reason to lace them up.
