Khan vs Judah video analysis (Khan Exposed)

How can it be "exposed" when you're mentioning stuff everyone already knows in a video which is heavily biased to begin with (lol). It's like me posting a video about Paulie Malignaggi having very little power, and claiming "Paulie Exposed!". Well, no ****, Sherlock.

 

deal
:good:good:good

 

I never really watch these videos, but i might just watch more of yours in the future, if you do pro's and con's of both fighters, a more balanced view..

When you showed Khan over reaching, you said he always does it, but repeated the same clip, show different examples..

 

Oh sorry I didn't catch that bit at the start, cool Zab head movement will be something Khan never seen, I agree but the Zab you showing is vs Floyd and that's like 5 years ago?

Anyway watching Zab's last fight he dont do that as much, now Zab uses his feet to move out the way or run around the ring.

Khan just don't want to jump on him, work everything off the jab, don't over reach and lose balance with this guy cuz he will make you pay.

 

Yo this is crap I log in for nothing.

 

You might try reading a book instead. The dictionary perhaps?

Vids were very good, I liked the Street Fighter homage and hope Zab takes this.

 

not tryin to say khan is a better boxer but judah just doesn't do enough to get the w, hes got all the right tools sure but hes gonna get outworked. honestly if you dont take the fight to khan and push him back hes gonna dance around and beat you with speed and movement

after seeing the mabuza fight and judah trying to fight defensive like hes sweet pea or somethin has me thinking hes gonna do worse than if he were fighting like the old zab, zab has one mode and thats to counter punch, reduce his punch output by making him a defensive fighter and hes got no chance other than relying on khans 'weak chin'

 

:deal

Very nice video analysis

 

Khan's defence is average. He still has too much for Zab IMO.

 

So who do you think is going to win, then?

 

Was re-watching Zab-Mabuza last night and was saying to myself that it wouldn't be in Zab's best interests to fight Amir in that same way. Zab was very relaxed in that fight. Too relaxed. So relaxed that if Mabuza was a bit quicker, he probably would've put Zab on his butt more than once.

Unless Zab is planning on picking up the pace athletically in that same defensive stance, it would behoove him not to fight like that against Khan. Khan would like nothing more than for Judah to move backwards at a leisurely pace so that he can rip off 4-5 punch combinations as Zab is going backwards. That's the fight Amir wants.

Amir's bread and butter is being able to control the offensive tempo of the fight and if Zab fights like he did against Mabuza, Amir will be able to do exactly what he wants. Zab doesn't have to worry about Amir's pressure fighting, or in-fighting. But, he needs to be as offensive-minded as Amir is to be competitive in this fight.

Zab's offense was extremely lackluster in the Mabuza fight. He nary landed a hard punch before the TKO. That cannot happen against Khan or Amir will feast on him. Zab has to shoot the straight left and not be afraid to throw his own combos as he's coming forward. If he waits on Amir, and is content on walking backwards, I guarantee you he'll be on the canvas. Guarantee.


I just think Zab can't afford to be too defensive minded in this fight if he's going to fight in that posture. It's one thing for Pea to teach him some defensive fundamentals that he might've been missing, but taking away what Zab does best--punch--is more of a hinderance than an improvement. I also noticed that Zab had tons of counter opportunities in the Mabuza fight and did not take advantage of them. I have no idea why either. Maybe he was thinking too much. Maybe Pernell was in his ear telling him to be patient. Whatever it was, he can't let those kinds of opportunities be missed against Amir.

There are opportunities to counter Amir, but rather than back staight up when Amir is punching, he needs to slip to the side and counter. Judah also seemed content to clinch with Mabuza when Mabuza got close. This isn't Zab's game. I think Zab needs to fight like Amir's going to fight in this fight. Zab needs to let his hands go straight away, and stand his ground.

I just don't want to see a situation where Judah loses it mentally because of a stupid mistake that was completely avoidable. We all saw how frustrated he got when Mabuza got the flash KD and he got that KD because Zab was off balance and backing up. Zab can't afford to have those hiccups against Amir.

Lastly, Zab used the triple jab against Mabuza a lot. And it was ineffective. I don't think using that tactic is wise because Amir can just counter. Zab needs to use a solid 1-2 combo, and forget about doubling/tripling an ineffective jab. Zab needs to use his quick jab to set up his power shots, namely the straight left.

 

All very good points. However, if Judah tries to do what you're asking he'll risk burning himself out within 6 rounds, and leave himself vulnerable for the remainder of the fight if Khan is unscathed and still standing.

That's probably the main reason why he appears to be more defensively minded and economical with his punches. He's finally realized he's not a fighter that can maintain a high pace for 12 rounds. Sitting back and being the counter puncher is far more suitable for him at this stage of his career, in my opinion.

 

Good analysis but really biased, you should post the rest of the video if you have it.

You showed only Khan's bad moments and compared it to an old Judah fight when he was fighting a lot better than he is now.

That said, your comments were pretty on the mark. Make it less biased and I think it'd be really good. :good
