Zab judah has won me over i am a LIFE TIME FAN NOW! because..

He is willing to fight everybody when his back is agains the ropes and he has no choice. going into the fight with Tzyu he said that if he did beat Kostya he wouldn't consider giving him a rematch. When he was the undisputed welterweight champion he turned down fight with Margarito and Cintro and instead gave us Rivera and Baldomir (baldomir turned out to win but on paper it was a ridiculous no risk fight)

In short he is taking on all comers now because he is not a big enough draw to make decent money if he doesn't. If he had all the straps right now he'd be fighting bums while trying to secure a fight with DLH

 

Offensively --- Zab is one of the best at 147.
Southpaw.
Lightening fast hard crisp punches (one of the fastest).
Great finisher and can take you out with one punch.
Loves to fight and a ton of heart.
Now when you fight the best other factors come into play.
Durability.
Never get tired conditioning.
Strenghth.
Not that he doesnt have those qualities.
I am saying he has lost because he has fought the best, whereas, they have been better in those areas (namely, Cotto who walked him down because he was stronger).
His only loss where he didnt give his opponent major problems was with Kosta and Kosta got lucky and snuck a good one in that he didnt see.
I guess he wasnt born with the greatest chin, but you are not suppose to get hit with those big ones.

 

He has a big heart, but at this point, I just think he's desperate and is being forced to fight anyone for that $$. He's not going to be foolish enough to turn down big name fights that are offered to him. If not them, then who else is he going to fight?

 

Sure Zab has fast hands and skill but he doesnt posess the complete package. I consider him a a gatekeeper with heart. I never could stand his flash or mouth but he's willing to fight the best, must give him that.

SSM will again show that Zab is a gate keeper and deliver him yet another loss. i expect Zab to bring it, but SSM is the better fighter with more heart and stamina:good

 

Yeah, he deserves respect but to say he belongs on PPV at this point doesnt make sense to me.

 

agreed

 

i used to be a judah nuthugger but the guy has let me down way too many times.

 

I'm rooting for Zab this time around. A win would put give his career a much needed boost.

 

Exactly. But I still like watching Judah fight, no matter if its a big name opponent or not. He is almost always entertaining in some form, which is always welcomed in a boxing match. Not to mention he gives most boxers fits before he loses. After 4 rounds, he was housing the best in the world. Hatton cant claim as much. (I like Hatton too, but he really didnt belong in the ring that night) imo

 

Judah's head is going to land somewhere in the 6th row. Mosley by KO. :happy

 

Well I agree with you here. He is very entertaining to watch.

 

Other than a rematch with Cory Spinks what is Judah's biggest win?

This guy gets praised for losing big money fights he doesnt deserve to have in the first place, and his fans are still holding on his potential talent that has never came out.

 

Wow where did all thse Zab fans suddnely spring from?

 

Who cares!? :roll: Thats what great fighters do they fight the best there is out there. The kid is a warrior and super talented. I dont see any problem with him facing the Cotto`s and Mosley of this world even if he does loose. At least his been in the ring with them.

As for potential talent the last i remembered Zab WAS the unfied champ at 147. He was a 2 time champ at 140. Thats not potential thats reality. When history remembers the unified champs at 47 his name WILL be mentioned.

 

Mosley's career is at the crossroads, this is Judah's best chance yet of a big fight win.
