I think Honeyghan at his best wins this on points but anything less then that then Zab will win. Thoughts?
Honeyghan at his best was a beast. He wasn't the most adaptable of fighters and his peak was short, but his combination of constant aggression and dangerous power would be too much for most welterweights. Judah's best weight was 140, even though his big title win was at 147. He didn't have a great chin, and was susceptible to being outmuscled. He struggled with physically strong fighters like Baldomir and Clottey who were not on the same level as Honeyghan. Honeyghan didn't fight many southpaws, and I don't think you can draw too many conclusions from the quick stoppage against Bumphus. It's a variable I suppose that could work in Zab's favour. Zab may have fleeting success in the fight, and he could dig a bit too so he would be dangerous. Honeyghan had a good chin though in his prime, and I don't think Judah would be able to keep him off for too long. At some point Honeyghan drags him into the trenches and breaks him down for a mid/late rounds stoppage. Judah didn't have the best chin, and Honeyghan smashed plenty of usually durable fighters.
