    people keep talking about zab having more experience in this fight. zab may well have faced the better opposition but what goods having the experience of losing? if you lose to these top guys every time then what are you learning?
    amir khan has experience of beating good fighters and zabs wins on his record are probably not that much better.

    khans wins:
    kotelnik
    mallignaggi
    maidana
    mccloskey

    judahs wins:
    witter
    ward
    millet
    spinks
    corley
    matthysse
    mabuza

    obviously judah has more wins against decent opposition but with the losses against guys like clotty, baldomir and spinks never mind mayweather tszyu and cotto his record evens out with amirs.

    Zabs near the end of his career, having fought at world class for many years against the best of his generation.

    Amir is on the up, having just reached world class.

    Its not comparing like with like. Give Amir another 10 fights of mixing it with the best. Then compare

    yeah I think Khan is too young/doesnt have enough fights, to be compared to Zab yet.

    So i guess my answer is Zab has the better resume, eventho I know Khan will beat him easily on saturday.

    Amir Khan fought nothing but cans except for Maidana and a decent tough white guy named Kotelnik. Got ktfo by some unknown contender Breidis Prescott.

    If Khan beats Judah, then that will be his best opponent and win.

    Zab and its not even close.

    This is like what? Khan's 2nd real fight with a top fighter? Give hims ome time. Khan can do more than Zab..he has to get by him first.

    - No Maidana is the best win
    - because Khan was that close to losing it
    - just one more punch
    - Khan's resume is beginning to look strong:

    Maidana
    Kotelnik
    Malignaggi
    I want to give him Mccloskey-but he needs to fight another top 140 pounder.

    You can learn a lot from a loss. It's unfair to compare resume's at this point.

    Well they are in different stages in their careers, at this stage Judah has the edge.

    my pont is about people calling zab the man with experience in this fight. but for me if he isn't ad******g and improving the experience means nothing. khan has improved 10 fold since the prescott loss and im guessing he will be even better when he steps in the ring with zab.

    Way too soon for Khan for this comparison to be fair though Kotelnik, Malinaggi, and Maidana are all very good fighters. Tbh Khan's resume is already shaping up nicely considering he's only 24.

    Zab Judah's resume is more impressive

    But he's alot older than Khan

    As long as Khan keeps fighting the big names (which is very refreshing for a 24 year old world champion ALVAREZ TAKE NOTICE) I'm sure Khan will eclipse Zabs in time

    Whenever I used to spar, I always wanted to spar the biggest and best guys in the joint. Why? Although they inevitably battered me into oblivion the first few times, I started to get better at matching them until I could hold my own. Most importantly I found that after this, whenever I sparred a lesser skilled fighter, I beat the **** out of them when before we were even. Even though I would have lost the fights to the better guys I learnt so much that I 'won' against the lesser opponents. You learn more from losing in life than you do from winning. By winning what do you have to work on?
