    I don't think that event was going to be a disaster. I think it would have done descent numbers. They both fought Cotto which were both big events because of there names, and the fight could have been moved to HBO WCB. Mosley's wife said "absolutley not". Mosley fought Collazo on free HBO. I wonder why not Zab? It would have been bigger and better than the Collazo fight:think

    I read where the projections were very poor and gate slow. It would be a very nice headline for WCB, but HBO wasn't willing to meet the purse demands to make that happen. I don't blame them.

    You have to remember that Judah's name is big on the East Coast. That's a few PPV buys there. Probably the angle Arum is working from.

    The more I look at this the more I say Clottey. I don't think Judah's limited output will do much damage to Clottey's high guard. And Clottey is pretty damn quick himself.

    So when you look at the picture of the fight, it goes like this.

    Power: Both have decent power.
    Speed: Judah.
    Defense: Clottey by a mile (altought working with Sr might help Judah
    Chin: Clottey. No contest.
    Stamina: Both suck but Judah suck more.

    The thing is, we don't know how Clottey will do against a fast guy like Judah who has good fundamentals and can box. We know he can brawl but i think Judah can and will outbox him. Clottey just CAN'T fight on the outside so if Judah can win rounds without getting to close he will win this fight IMO.

    So IMO, Judah could outbox Clottey to a UD and with May Sr in his corner i think it can happen...
