Zab Judah vs Craig Watson?

Is Judah not down at light-welter now? So might be Barnes.

Interestingly both Barnes and Watson are with hayemaker now.

 

the only manchester (and close by) welterweights i can think of are matt hatton (although he usually fights on ricky undercards), craig watson and michael jennings.

maybe he wants to get jenno and try doing a better job than cotto

 

Found this:

Platinum Promotions in association with Big Fish Boxing are planning the return of Zab Judah, the night before Hatton vs Pacquiao, at the 7,500-seat arena at the South Point Hotel Casino.

There is talk of Judah facing Ricky Hatton's brother, Matthew - but with Judah poised to return to 140lb it could also be David Barnes according to other speculators.

The card will also feature a heavyweight fight with Javier Mora and popular Filipino Balweg Pangoyan, to capture some of the Pinoy's in the city for Pacquiao's fight with Ricky Hatton.

Matt Hatton springs to mind, sets up Zab nicely if Ricky gets past Pac....

 

Thats true....

 

I think Hatton could face someone like Judah if he looses against Pac.

 

I'd hope he'd retire if he lost. He'll have hada very good career at 140 but came up short when he fought the real top fighters around. No disgrace. The only other option worth considering is the Holt/ Bradley winner IMHO.

 

I think he'll want one last fight in the UK before he calls it a day.

Ricky Hatton's farewell fight at somewhere like Wembley against a good but beatable opponent. He's mentioned a few times that he wants to fight in England after Pac.

 

As long as its for the fans and PPV then I wouldn't have a problem with that..

 

Bami is fighting Hatton... thats a big ask for Mathew but a winnable fight. Watson or Barnes I reckon. He was matched with Ashley Theophane a while back. He should re match Witter.

 

I did not realise Bami was still fighting. I think this could be excellent matchmaking for Matt Hatton.

 

Bami is still a useful gatekeeper at British level.


It is a real shame it is not your boy Ajose. He could really do with this type of named opponent otherwise he will still be fighting low end domestic fighters a year from now. And Americans have no idea where Manchester is so the fight could be the one mentioned.
