    He really knows his stuff, and deserved to be represented alot better than Judah, who didn't even try.

    Sweat Pea is a legend as a fighter, may his career as a trainer find similar success...That would start with another fighter...

    I do too.. here you have an all-time great Pea, trying with all his might to instll some knowledge into Zab and Zab failing miserably. Hopefully this will be it for Zab, he's done as far as I am concerned.

    Great fighter does not equal great trainer.

    I would like Pea to still be part of the spotlight in boxing but being a trainer shouldnt be it.

    Pernell should have taken Zab's place at the end of the fourth round to teach how to do it.

    Yeah you could see the frustration on his face just tryna get Judah to complete a simple task of letting his left hand go

    Its not as easy as that,

    Khan was constantly moving and countering over the left hand , so Judah knew that everytime he throw it pain would be coming.

    I agree, Sweet Pea deserved better from Zab, who stupidly ignored quality advice.

    Judah had the same look as Haye and had Whittaker sayin the same thing Booth was sayin to Haye.

    But he just couldnt cuz he knew hed take too much, Khan controllin the fight controlled who got the upper hand from clashing styles and Judah was not comftable in the ring at any point.

    Haye shoulda started taking big chances around the 8th onwards once hed realised he was making no impact but he didnt. Id expect Judah would of. But he took himself out the game hopin for a low blow stoppage.

    I don't. he did well. he will get another fighter and do better. Judah is not Pernell. Not close.

    It was an off night. Remember Emmanuel Stewart had an off night with Wlad vs Brewster 1 as well.

    Even at his age i think Whitaker would have done better than Judah did tonight.
