    Ive always wondered why this fight was never mentioned. Two Brooklyn guys, hold it at the Barclays center, at 145lb catch weight. Who wins?

    Paulie by UD after Zab gives himat least 4-5 tough rounds.

    depending on which Zab showed up he could definitely get the W, but there is no way he hurts Paulie, and Paulies jab would neutralize Zab's defense.

    Dont think Zab would have any problems with Paulie at all, hes faster and more powerful, when has Zab had trouble with someone who has no power

    I too have never understood why this fight has never happened. Its bizarre really, even now.... with both guys being a good opponent for the other, its still not being mentioned.

    anyways, Judah all day.


    Judah wide UD

    Depends. Judah lost to Baldo/Khan would vs Paulie who bruised Senchenko = Malignaggi jabs, moves and boxes to clear UD. Judah at his best vs Paulie who fought Khan, Cano, = Judah by UD. Depends.

    Arguably khan?
    Khan's ko's come from delivering speed (Force= massxacceleration).
    It isnt that he bullies his opponents around the ring. Zab's biggest opponent is always himself. He is undisiplined and lets his opponents get in his head if he isn't dominating.

    That being said, I think Zab had the best shot outside of Castillo to beat floyd, he was doinga fine job the first four rounds of their matchup... If THAT zab shows up and fights for 7 rounds or more, its a bad night for paulie. But Zab is lazy, and this is more and more true, i think.

    Cory Spinks 1, Zab didn't fair well at all, and Paul utilizes his jab and moves much better than Cory. Like a few of the posters have said, it really would all come down to which Zab showed up.

    Zab hits harder and is faster than Broner.
    He would not beat Malignaggi throwing a punch at a time, always throws their quick combinations ... Zab by tko.

    I don't think this fight would be as competitive as people are saying.


    I think Zab stops him. He is quicker and more powerful than Broner, and I think he boxes a little better. He might not have quite the chin Broner has, but is a chin really necessary when fighting Paulie?

    Good fight to watch and one iv always wondered about. Could both these men still make light welter? I think they'd both be more competetive down at140.

    This fight though, is a toss up. Zab Juda has crazy natural talent and sublime skills in a boxing ring. He is just not motivated for 100% of his fights and loses concentration. If he could capture the form of old I think he wins, unless an equally good paulie shows up, (senchenko whipper) which was arguably the most complete boxing performance of his career. I remember watching this fight in awe at the way he was busting this guy to peices so beautifully. Complete boxer in the ring that night and he didn't get enough recognition for the way he beat senchenko that night in ukraine.

    Gut feeling, Malignaggi by split decision.
