Yes, it was a close fight but Zab Judah beat Matthysse. Zab won 7 rounds and Matthysse 5 with a knockdown. Zab showed great heart in this fight. believe he knocks Matthysse again, and he will beat Amir Khan. Zab is ready.
I like Zab, I really do. But no. He did not beat Matthysse. In fact it was not even close. Matthysse landed more power shots in every single round, and landed more than twice as many in at least 7 rounds. Judah landed maybe 4 effective punches the entire fight.
yeah i'm in agreement as much as i wanted to give zab the fight i honestly thought mattysse done enough to win, very dodgy judging imo.
Matthysse began to do something after the 10th round. and even after suffering a knockdown Zab hit good shots.
I agree...he won the fight but Lucas proved he's a problem at 140 for anyone. I don't think Zab will EVER fight Lucas again simply b/c he wont' have to unless Lucas puts himself in position to force a fight with Zab.
Lucas did better against Devon than Tim did. It would be interesting to see a fight between Tim and Lucas but Tim isn't going to risk getting into it with Matthysse. I don't blame him.
I was thinkin about this while watchin' last night. Zab's win over this guy is UNDER rated around here on ESB IMO.:yep (I knew it was good but after seein' him last night?? ****, that ain't no easy win for no got damn body) Man I hope Super Zab shows out on Khan.
