By Ben Thompson | February 13, 2008 http://fighthype.com/pages/content1945.html Contrary to recent reports, sources close to the situation have just confirmed that three-time world champion Sugar Shane Mosley will indeed be facing former unidsputed welterweight champion Zab Judah on May 17th at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. The bout will take place on HBO pay-per-view.
I like both these guys...Zab will be faster, but Mosley is much stronger. One thing is for sure, Jin Mosley is hott!!!
I would've rather a fight with Quintana for Shane but this'll do. Shane beats Judah easily after surviving a big early onslaught. I guess Carlos can face Paul Williams in a rematch then.
I dunno if the PPV thing is a good idea. These are two fighters coming off of losses who may or may not still be condenders. The only people who buy this fight are die hard Sugar Shane or Zab fans, and MAYBE the occasional boxing fan who has money to burn. IMO Shane wins decisively.
I would love to see this fight but why is it on PPV? Was Zab and Cotto on PPV? What about Zab and Floyd? I seriously can't remember.
Judah is not a warrior and always buckels under the pressure when the fight is not going his way. Easy victory for a faded Mosley!
