By Jake Donovan - Danny Garcia continues to learn that life is rough at the top. The unbeaten 25-year old is widely regarded as the top-rated 140 lb. fighter on the planet, though the jury remains out on whether or not he’s actually the division’s best.
Proof was to have been offered in last summer’s fourth round knockout of Amir Khan. Garcia was trailing nearly every second of the fight before rallying to drop the Brit late in the third round and then flooring him twice more in the fourth to seal the biggest victory of his still rising career.
Yet there are still many who give former two-division champ Zab Judah a tremendous shot at pulling off the upset when the two collide at Barclays Center in Brooklyn this weekend.
The bout airs live on Showtime as part of a split site tripleheader which also features a middleweight grudge match between Peter Quillin and Fernando Guerrero as well as Khan in a homecoming in his native United Kingdom. For good reason, all eyes are on the main event. [Click Here To Read More]
