Hatton stop Judah around the 9-11th. . . Feet are fast enough to stay close enough to Judah to avoid his "power zone" which is mid-range, for most of each round. . . Judah probably starts out winning 4 out of the first 6 rounds, even hurting Hatton a few times catching him with uppercuts coming in . . . But Hatton just keeps coming, and gradually chipping away at that body. Judah, being a mental midget, and having a feeble punch resistance, starts to fade after the halfway point when he realizes Hatton is going to be in his chest for the entire round. . . Hatton eventually goes downstairs, with a left hook, and then upstairs with a right cross/hook, and Judah can't get up. . . He then cries afterwards accusing Hatton of cheating, and hte ref being biased.
Had a poll like this few weeks ago and Hatton was the majority. I feel Ricky wins everytime and Judah doesn't really have enough skill to test Hatton over 12 rounds (if it goes that long). Judah has no heart and will probably quit late on from the sheer pressure and volume of the power punches and body punches that Hatton will be throwing. Tbh i dont think everyone will agree with me here but I believe Hatton is in a different class compared to Judah and always has been.
He would of had a punchers chance catching Hatton coming on, but that would only be early on. If he wasn't able to hurt Hatton he would most probably start getting dominated. Zab Judah is too defensive a fighter. He doesn't do enough on the front end. When you counter punch you invite someone in. The jab is there to keep them out but by inviting them in you also invite pressure if you go too defensive and dont get off enough yourself.
Pre chicken dance Judah has a chance for sure, but the Judah after Tszyu made him his ***** has way to many doubts and would probably end up quiting.
Hatton at his best would of made this a very very uncomfortable night for Zab , pressure , body shots , head on chest , elbows , anything and everything to wear Judah down Judah catches Hatton with the occasional shot on the outside but ultimately Hatton's pressure tells and he poors it on late in a thriller , takes home a decision in a back and forth fight Ricky Hatton W Zab Judah 12 - 115 - 112
