First of all i ate people who start off by saying "dont you know anything about boxing!?" :****off secondly, you think a fight between zab and hatton wouldnt rake in millions???? as well as an all new york fight between zab and paulie??? come off it, there is money in those 2 fights and lots of it. yes there is also big money at WW but he just cant compete at that weight it seems after losses to baldomir, floyd and cotto.
Paulie struggled to sell out his last fight in that little ass olive garden looking place. A fight with Hatton is big bucks...but I think that's where it ends at 140 unless Pac comes up in weight. Zab can make more money at 147 and I guess that's all he needs to know to stay there.
You just said it, These fights are not happening, Hatton,Paulie who ever, Mosley is and it PPV and thats what it is all about making Money.
Zab will not drop to 140 because there is no one worth fighting at that weight. No one at that weight has earned the right to fight Judah.
thats becase it wasnt in new york or MSG, it was closer to philly if anything!!! 2 new yorkers at MSG is the same as having " puerto ricans there, a big draw.
zab should just go to 154, he should find more sucess there and he could be 3 division world champ which adds to legacy and to the legacy of fighters who defeated him
I thought that was in like Long Island? Anyways, Judah would be the NY draw moreso than Paulie. Hell I know I'd go to see if Judah demolish Paulie.
Great thread I'm not sure why...really I think Zab is just lazy....when you think about it he always fades in fights, this is due to poor conditioning.....this being the case I'm sure Zab wouldnt be to keen on any EXTRA work to shed a few more pounds....to me 140 is where he belongs and where he would be successful...... I could actually see Zab beating all of the title holders at 140(he already beat Witter and would do it again) But Zab is getting old and lazy, he actually fought a few times above 147 recently... I wish him the best, he's had a great career but Mosley will crush his ass. Bet on it!
zab needs a new trainer to get him fired up, he's not getting any younger.. Id go with roach or floyd sr.
um iI know this wize guy....but im didnt mention money...after Mosley, money will not be availiable @147.... go to bed:dead
Yea Zab looked great against Tsyzu at 140. Like some people say "he would dominate the division easily." :nut
