    i don't think judah is washed up or past it. he gave mathysse a pretty even fight, although people are saying he lost it, it was still close. that mathysse suffered the same fate against alexander. what that suggests to me, is that judah, is working at the same level as the likes of, mathysse, alexander and kotelnyk. id also put peterson and maybe morales in that bracket as well.

    khan has proven he is levels above those fighters with this performance, and i think in most peoples eyes a level above bradley. although thats very much a fight we all want to see, so khan can prove his status as #1 at 140.

    bradleys style may cause khan a few problems but i don't think he quite has the reach, pace to get to khan or the necessary pop to trouble him if he did. alexander had many oportunitirs to catch bradley coming in but didnt have the accuracy to catch him. khan does!

    Very impressed.

    Khan still has to straighten out his punches and work on his balance, but he's really coming along well.

    He's not ready for Mayweather yet, but he's on his way.

    I know terrible refereeing when I see it. That fight, like the Miranda fight was doomed due a terrible ref. The fans were cheated, and so were the fighters, because wasn't **** established in that fight. Should have been decaled a draw with a rematch and a new ref. I give Khan a 3 and Judah a 2. :yep

    He did exactly what I expected him to do.. overwhelm the old gnat. But he's still gangly, and open to punches. I think he'll make it thru 140 okay.. but 147 might be another story for him.

    very impressed. He is peaking now with confidence and a little experience from the Maidana fight and others. It is coming together for him, similar to Hearns against Benitez in 1982.Not comparing him to Hearns, but just where he is as a fighter.

    Judah sucks at this point, but that's not Khan's fault. Khan went in there to handle business and that's just what he did. I'm really not too impressed. Anybody at 140 in the top 5 would have done the same thing to Zab.

    Not at all because Judah is shot and he had a Glass Jaw and Glass Heart when he was in his prime. I was surprised that we got to see the Glass Body and Glass Heart on display rather than the mandible but shattered glass is funny in all guises.

    8/10. Better footwork, knew what punches and counters to throw, controlled the distance well...wasn't always super accurate, but he was on point for the most part and won convincingly against a game but past-prime opponent.

    If ****** ass Zab didn't attempt to fake a low blow in the first place, then that dip **** of a ref would have never been able to count him out.

    Judah is a fast starter, but in this case he never got off the blocks. Him not doing much I believe had more to do with Khan's fast combination punching and footwork than anything else. Against any another opponent at 140 I think Judah will still do well.

    I think Khan's tactics, speed, range puzzled Zab he just could start or get off, he just could not deal with Khan.
