And anyone who's paid any attention to my post history knows I'm no fan of Khan's. But I do respect his speed and boxing ability. While Malignaggi is obviously feather fisted, he's definitely not slow, but Amir made him look slow. This will probably be the first guy, including Floyd, Zab has faced who truly has a speed advantage over him. However, I'm not convinced Khan's chin troubles are all behind him, primarily because I was never convinced that Maidana was true power puncher. He beat guys down til they couldn't, or didn't want to, get up anymore. But he never sparked anyone out. But Khan did show more resiliency in that fight than I thought he had. So if Zab can't catch him clean in the first three rounds, Khan will get him outta there in the mid rounds.
If Maidana's sloppy uppercuts could **** Khan up so badly in round 10 of their fight, what happens when a Judah left uppercut lands flush on the chin?
Why wouldn't Zab be able to hit him within three rounds when Maidana did after 10 seconds? Let me tell you something you might already know, Maidana is no Meldrick Taylor.
A judah uppercut is going to have to come very early. He doesn't land those bombs late. His career proves it. I didn't totally rule out a Judah win, but I was clear with how I thought it would have to happen. And in my estimation, it's more likely that it won't than that it will. It's just a simple prediction.
Zab best weapon was his speed...now he is older fighting a boxer faster than him. Khan wins this one by middle rd KO
I think we're gonna see a pretty noticeable speed difference in this fight that's gonna surprise a lot of people. Whether or not Khan can finish Judah however is another matter, I think he takes it by decision (barring a game changing punch or two by Zab, which isn't impossible).
He can't even KO a bum who isn't a champion and that bum KTFO Khan in the 1st round. What makes you think he will knock out the "Former Undisputed Welterweight Champion of the World" when Khan has a glass china jaw? Don't use the argument of Judah having also a glass jaw because at least Judah got KTFO by the best 140lb and HOF Tszyu and fought better competition in Mayweather/Cotto and so on. On the other hand Khan got KTFO by unknown not even world champ Prescott. What's up now Brit?
Zab is a front runner to me. Early on he is very game IMO. I would not be shocked by a Judah KO win and a story book comeback to prominence by Judah. But I would also not be surprised by Judah competitive through 5 or 6 and then getting his arse handed to him late.
Lol. Khan aint knocking him out u mug. Cotto didnt and money didnt at 147. Judah is gona lay khan put on the deck. Judah has fought monsters at 147 so i doubt Khan will bother him. Khan is in for a shock. Iif Maidana cud throw punches correctly Khan wud be dead right now.
If Judah stays focus up until and during his fight with Kahn, He wins easily and exposes khan for the glass chinned protected fighter he is.
Or Amir wont be able to dance again.....Because he honestly hasnt fought a fighter with Zab's skill set
