Will tonight be the last time that we see JUdah at 147?

    Well I expect a great fight tonight, my respect for both fighters especially from Clottey, he's a hell of a fighter. I think that JUdah has a tremendous talent for boxing, but IMHO I don't think he got the tools that he needs to beat Clottey. Counterpunchers tend to frustrate their opponents landing the more cleaner punches. This will frustrate JUdah, in adittion to that Judah don't have the power to KO the Ghanan boxer. Most people underestimate Clottey's power, but his punches were landing on Margo's chin and they were doing effect, if a person like Margo was affected by those punches , Judah will get KO by those punches. This is my first post and I would like to know what you guys think about it.

    I think Clottey is going to win one way or another, whether it's by late stoppage or decision. But I doubt that it would be the last time we see Judah at 147, regardless of whether or not he loses. There's no way he can make junior welterweight anymore. Yet he's obviously too small to compete with the natural junior middleweights at this point. Welterweight suits him pretty well.

    Judah weighed in at 143 while not even draining himself, how could he not make 140 :lol:

    Hopefully, he can dominate 140, hes better than Hatton and Maliggnagi.

    no this won't be the last. judah is that type of fighter win or lose that would still be marketable enough to put on big fights. Expect him to get many title shots even if he lose, but he should have campaign at 140 if he could make that weight

    I see your point. I guess I misspoke when I said that there is "no way" he can make the limit. I just think that he'd be better suited as a welterweight, where he can make the weight comfortably without cutting too much.

    It's 3 pounds. That's just not drinking water right before the weighin and maybe going for a jog :lol: :patsch

    143.Wow.Ive thought for years he should fight at 140,this just confirms it.When I think of Judah next to Williams,Margarito and Cintron,i cant help but think of a weak scrawny little man next to them.He Just seems so slight.

    I hope so

    After tonight win or lose, I dont want to hear about Zab again unless its a fight with Hatton.

    If Zab somehow manages to edge Clottey then he's up next against Margarito. Tony wants his IBF belt back from what I can understand.

    Will they have the unofficial HBO weight scale on tab for tonight so we can see where Clottey and Judah stand?
