"Amir's quick but not a powerful puncher," Judah said. "Amir fought a good fight but he's definitely not in Floyd Mayweather or Miguel Cotto's league. Khan tried to throw a lot of punches but I didn't get hit much. My defence was working pretty well." ________ Thoughs?
Wow....he's speaking this soon after the embarrassing performance? I wish Zab well and hope he comes back after working on those flaws. I still think he's one the the best at Jr WW but Khan is KING. Maybe Tim won't be too afraid of facing Zab now that Khan destroyed him.
What Judah says is probably true, he did make Khan miss alot, and he probably is not as good as Cotto but few are.
Khan was labeled a bum three years ago and being dismissed as pure hype job by all haters. To be in the same sentence with Cotto and Floyd is an accomplishment by itself.
Sounds a bit like sour grapes, but he's right about Amir not being quite a powerful puncher. He didn't really sit on his punches and he missed a lot because Judah's akward and fairly slick. Amir's real intention was to throw a lot, which is what you do to off-set a southpaw.
It was only 5 rounds and Khan was getting more and more accurate. Not many people have dominated a frontrunner like Judah as much as Khan did in the first 4 rounds.
At least Zab didn't run to survive like Shane. But he did use the borderline low blow to get out of the beating he was taking.
I think might be down playing is power, but by not that much. Judah was obviously more hurt by Cotto and Floyd than he was by Khan by round 6.
Well When Judah fought Cotto/Floyd He was trying to hit and not get hit. While when he fought Khan he just focused on not getting hit. The rest his history.
