    Depends how you utilize that slickness.

    What is the point of continually making someone miss, or look predictable, if you dont find enough transitions from defense to offense, to make them pay enough?

    Judah is the quintessential style of substance fighter, looks the part, but when you actually access his style, you start to realize, he's a bit of a one trick pony, a fighter who's too defensive and invites pressure, but drops rounds through inactivity due waiting on single counters, that's probably why an agricultural guy like Baldy was able to beat him.

    It doesn't really matter how slick you appear to be, if you aint actually that slick, or dont know how to capitalize on that slickness by using it to create offense.

    Only reservations I would have for Khan, is that Judah has been working with Conte, so might be a different animal physically, which might mean he's able to more consistent than he usually is, which could potentially be an issue, but aside from that, whilst you cant rule Judah out, Khan should be the favourite, say 70/30, or 60/40.

    What does being black have to do with being slick. Mcclosky is a pretty skilled boxer and he made Khan look clumsy at times, so on that logic I predict that Khan will have trouble with Judah's 'black' skills.

    Its not to do with colour its about style.Judah brings something new for Khan to deal with.I think he can cause problems but only in the first six rounds.If Khan can keep upright and make sure he aint letting Judah set the pace he will be able to take this one most like on a UD.He cant let Judah totally control the early rounds,cant let him be 3 up going into the 4th if Khan can make the first 4 or 5 really hard for Zab,make it an even fight, he takes control of the fight after the half way mark.

    Its immature fools like you who add fuel to the race card issue .
    Weather your interpretation or mis guided expression was an error of judgement I suggest you wise up .
    Colour means F all , if you have ability you have abilty , granted some more than others .:patsch

    Judah looked ok against Floyd but that because Floyd is a defensive fighter. Against a good offensive fighter he gets knocked out! I dont think Amir will knock Zab out but i would not be shocked if he won by tko late in the fight.
