Despite the fact that a lot of know-it-alls and blowhards hate that Zab gets big fights, he keeps getting them. WHY? Yall fools ain't never heard of Zab arguing about money. And you never hear of Zab ducking anyone. And a Zab Judah fight is usually gonna have some type of fireworks. Somethin' gonna happen. We don't know what it is, but somethings gonna happen. Plus, despite the haters, Zab still has a fairly decent fanbase and a name that people recognize. So despite the fact that he's lost a lot of fights, he hasn't loss to any bums. If you aren't a top fighter, Zab will put your ass to sleep. So to all of you Zab-haters who are sick of him getting big fights... **** off. He will continue to get good fights, despite some of the dumb **** he has done, because he is just too easy to negotiate with unlike all these fighters who think their all headed for Oscar de la Hoya status... and who have promoter that wanna carefully craft and manuever their careers, all the while depriving everyone of good fights. If you want your favorite figther to get some of these big fights, then tell him to STFU and take the money and fight.
Zab is probably my 3rd favorite active fighter after Cotto & Mosley. I would love to see him keep fighting, n1ggas a beast and puts in work, lil dirty but who isnt
? im just saying he's 1 of my favorite boxers, he's entertaining and like Aiken said - he doesnt duck anybody and that to me gets mad respect.
Puts you to sleep?Did you see the Johnson fight?He ain't putting anyone to sleep anymore....he hasn't won by KO in years.His next big fight will be his last if in fact anyone gives it to him.
He'll get another and another... as long as the rest of these pussies let Bob Arum, etc. determine their career path. If Zab wants to fight, let him. You can;t get mad at the man cashing in on what's left of his name. I wish more fighters would say "**** it, I'll fight that fool!"
Because of his mouth, flash, and his natural talents... Any fighter with these three qualities will have an easier time getting fights even if they haven't done ****.. Cotto for example.. If he wasn't a good fighter, he wouldnt be getting ****, why? because he has no personality, no charisma whatsoever... So wooden like Keanu Reeves... Judah has it.
Don't forget, Zab has been in there with the best of today, and some of the best of all time. He's a solid contender , and takes on everybody. The tough fights are catching up to him now, but don't forget, guys like Mayweather and Tzyu built their reputations on beating Zab. For them to be great, they had to beat tough bad dudes like Judah.
I agree, Zab doesnt complain about money and just really fight the best. Did he fight Cory Spinks for nothing? He's a very good gatekeeper and measuring stick for the elite ladder.
