    Judahs explosive southpaw attack may prove to be too much for Khan

    but if Khan uses height and reach properly he can stay out of trouble and take over in the late rounds when Judah fizzles

    Maybe itll be like the Mattysse fight Judah gets an early lead thru like 7 or 8 then tires giving Khan only a few rounds to take

    tough one to call

    Alot of people were picking Judah to upset Cotto.I thought his performance that night was overrated because Cotto was far from unbeatable.Judah might tag Khan once or twice but I think Khan will dominate him.

    Cotto is a bigger, stronger, and more versatile fighter than Khan.

    Khan is faster and taller, but he's also relatively one dimensional.

    His attack is predictable, and McKloskey isn't the first guy to expose this, as it's noticable in every fight.

    However, McKloskey is important becuase Judah will utilize a similiar defense, especially considering the way he fought recently and his current trainer's gameplan and style, and he will capitalize where McKloskey failed to do so.

    Judah is much faster than McKloskey, more experienced, and has legitimate 1 punch KO power at 140. If Judah lands on Khan, which at some point he will with a hard counterpunch, Khan will hit the deck.

    It is possible that Khan could get the decision despite being knocked down possibly more than once, but it will be due to his aggression, most of it inneffective, and Judah's perception as being old and unviable in comparison to Khan the money maker.

    Don't be surprised if Judah is robbed. He needs to make sure when he has Khan hurt, that he finishes him.

    When you throw a lot of punches like Khan does, you leave a lot of openings.

    with zab now a lot more focused on boxing,with sweat peas guidance and his new way of pacing himself in fights and being more about slippery defence and speed early on,it will be hard for khan.

    But judah has been hurt and tired before,khan could hurt him,but khan also can be buzzed and can do some silly mistakes in fights.

    But also for judah it can be tough too,Khan has the stamina and work rate to keep hitting and moving if needed,he can use a strong jab,and use his height and reach to his advantage,making judah struggle to hit cleanly.He will go to the body early on,really use his movement and footwork to make jab uncomfortable.

    Khan facing mckloskey was kinda good preperation for a future judah fight tbh.

    I had a dream the other night that Judah knocked Khan out in the 6th round.

    Zab spoils his challenges:

    Joshua Clotty
    Floyd Mayweather
    Miguel Cotto
    Cory Spinks

    .... And more have all bet him.

    I give him a chance. About it.

    I think Khan will win and step up his workrate and offense after 4 - 5 rounds which is when Judah will slow down. I wouldn't be surprised if Judah does something stupid or erratic in this fight.

    i dont understand why judah gets hyped up so much. a lot of people seem to rank him based on his potential rather than what he's shown in the ring. he's struggled in his last two fights, had difficulty setting up shots against crude matthyse, his speed has declined and his chin may be worse than khans, i don't think it would have stood up to the shots maidana hit khan with. that said khan hasn't fought to his best in his last 2 fights and he might get caught. but judah is too far gone and i can't see him stopping or consistently outboxing khan. khan tko round 9 for me, he might have problems in the first couple of rounds though

    Zab has great success early, maybe even scoring a flash knockdown or two while Khan is off balance. But soon enough Khan gets into his rhythm and hurts Judah badly with body shots, either winning by a close decision or stopping a gassed Judah on his feet in the late rounds.
