    Sadly that ship has sailed, he was never an ELITE fighter jus a good one, not to say he didn't have the potential
    But is he a danger at 140 lbs imo nope, just a stepping stone for new younger more hungry fighters.

    Dipset *****!

    he was never any good to begin with he was overhyped because he was from NY. If he was from anywhere else nobody would know who he was.

    He had no Chin, was mentally weak, lost all his 'power' after about 4 rounds or so.

    He was a hype job from the beginning.

    I think he lost the right to be called "Super" when Carlos Baldomir beat him.

    After Baldmoir hurt Zab in the 6th, he ran away for the rest of the fight. And yes I scored the 6th round 10-8 with out a knockdown.

    Most rounds after that could be in theory 10-8 also since Zab did nothing but run from the terror that is Baldmoir.

    If anyone wants proof that there isn't a God then you just need to look at Judah and ask yourself why would he put that much natural talent into such an idiot.

    Moving up in weight and then moving back down in weight at a late stage of the career has never spelled good things for any fighter.

    Man Zab will ALWAYS be my man. His flash inside and outside the ring aren't matched by many. I just wished he had really elevated out of the streets and focused on the sweet science. He could have reached some serious heights.

    However sometimes the best stories ever told are a little sad.

    Great post. Imagine him with the work ethic of Pacman and the mental toughness of Floyd.. He could have been greater than Sweet Pea.. Early in his career, people were comparing him to Pea.

    Zab Judah will always be one of my favorite fighters. I still watch Judah-Spinks I and II all the time.
