Considering what Judah was able to accomplish afterward, e.g. nothing but an embarrassing loss to Malignaggi... It's not great He was the favorite after all, and unless you want to believe the theory that Angel's taunting made him more dedicated than he's been in years, the fact that he struggled near the end tells a lot about Garcia's stamina (it really ain't the only time he faded late)
Zab had a few good rounds in the second half. Garcia still won the fight by a mile. He didnt "struggle"
Don't talk ****, he was 3 fights away from retirement and Khan didn't beat him easy, people ignore that Zab was fine from the 'knockdown' and was actually trying to play the ref into calling it a low blow and got counted out. That was Zab being a moron, not Khan beating him easy.
Oh give over I know Khan has his haters but he won every 2nd of every round vs Judah. He absolutely battered him. His hit Zab every time he though it was a complete beat down. Zab quit cause he couldn't live with Khan. Garcia's win was an OK win over a faded former world champ who still had a bit left. Good solid win over a still decent fighter but faded guy
Khan was beating him indeed, but the knockout for me, wasn't legit. And it doesn't change the fact that still was a Judah 3 fights away from retirement. I fully expect that Khan would have gone on and beat Judah very convincingly, but it still wasn't the prime Judah some of the mongs on here attempt to make it out to be. It also says something about te rest of Khan's record when this is held up as one of his best wins.
I have mixed thoughts He dominated the first 7 or so rounds, dropped Judah and basically never really got the left hook off vs the southpaw. He was utilizing his right hand a lot so it showed he isnt a one handed guy He got rocked and lost some late rounds so that was bad But he survived and finished strong so that showed me something
Yes he struggled . But it was a good win . Garcia clearly won the fight . Speaking of Zab , I wonder whos his next opponent going to be ?
Yeah don't know what happened with the knockout if it was legit or not but khan looked class really hammered Judah . And Judah was coming off his beat win, the best Judah I think was the one that fought tYzu but after that I didn't notice muh difference in him until recently where he looks gone , he had a similar record right through his career and had the same problems time and time again.
