    The guy hit 143 for his last weigh in for a WW fight. It is still possible for a JW career. Judah vs Hatton at 140 could be solid and there are plenty of other interesting match-ups there.

    I'm thinking the exact same thing!

    Judah would find more success in the light welterweight division.
    And I'm sure he could make 140 with out any trouble.

    I've been saying this for a while. Judah went to 147 for the bigger names but he could still win belts at 140.

    He needs to move down for his career. Remember that Judah is thought of as a guy with a great combination of speed and power, yet when you look at the beltholders at welterweight, with the exception of Berto, I couldn't see him denting any of them.

    A fight with Malignaggi for Brooklyn pride would be intriguing.

    He can't hurt guys at 147 - going to 140 is absolutely the best option for him if he can make it.

    Exactly. I think Paulie vs Judah could be a barn burner

    I heard in the commentary Judah weighed 143 against Clottey, if that's the case he should drop down to 140 easy. Staying at 147 is pointless, there is simply no beltholder in that weightclass who would lose to him. They're too big.

    140 is a shallow division. He could still a grab a belt there and unify even.
