    Actually, Maidana was the worst style you can imagine for Khan. Judah not really.

    Khan TKO11 Judah.
    I think people are going on about Zab's counter ability a little too much, which I also think Khan's corner are going to know. Zab can work on his counter's all night long in camp, but come fight night, If he isnt given the chance to work his uppercuts, then Khan dominates. I said it before and ill say it again: after a few competitive rounds, Khan's athleticism and youth will come into play. Im putting £20 (about $35) on a 11th rd TKO for Khan.

    Yes and by a factor of 2 or 3. Super has legit one punch KO power. That is a rare thing in boxing just fyi.

    No, judah hits harder. Quit sugarcoating it, its ****in true and all you mother****ers know it but are afraid to admit it on here for some reason.

    Also, Judah KO's maidana.

    I agree what you're saying but that was a European level fighter. Khan was blundering after him like he did before he joined up with roach.

    it worried me cos if he does it with someone like Judah they'll be picking his jaw out of row N

    Who is fighting ? Real Judah or virtual ESB Judah ?

    I will be rooting for Zab in this fight, but there's no doubt in my mind that he'll gas out after 5 or 6 rounds and lose. Stop looking at youtube highlights, Zab hasn't KOed a worthy opponents with a counter uppercut in many years.

    Yup, I agree.

    Pretty dangerous for Khan, and I can't wait for it.

    And to think, some people were demanding Khan to face Prescott instead :lol:

    I disagree with both.
    In prime judah wins but now Maidana TKO11-12, hjudah wouldn't be able to take the pressure.
    Khan beats Judah 11th round TKO

    There are two important things to consider in a fight - who is the hungriest and who has the most to gain or lose. This fight is bigger for Judah than Khan. Khan will likely underestimate his ability because Khan is so focused on fighting "the best". I always felt that Zab could be a high level fighter if he got a different trainer. His father may be good, but he was more of a rah rah guy than a master strategist. I see Khan getting frustrated when he can't hit Zab cleanly. But, as mentioned before, if Zab comes out with the ferocity he had against Mayweather, he stands a great chance.

    Zab can slip and dodge punches and place a counter right on Khan's chin,wouldn't seeit coming. With maidana you see his punches coming see you can at least brace yourself for impact

    Maidana is no doubt the worst style matchup for Zab.

    I do. Zab packs the single harder punch, imo. He gets full leverage on his uppercut and delivers it with tremendous hand-speed.

    Agreed. I had bigger doubts about how Khan would handle power from a pressure fighter than how he can handle power from a finesse boxer.
