Judah praised Khan for accepting his challenge but said Khan’s bravado will ultimately be his undoing.
“Amir Khan deserves a lot of credit and he’s shown great heart, putting his world title on the line in a major fight against someone like me,” Judah said. “But this is a gamble for him. He’s good – real good, one loss – but I have more knockouts than he has had fights. He’s like I was when I was in my early 20s: a guy who believes he can beat anybody.
“But this is going to be a bit of a chess match here. They have made a mistake where they have moved their piece on the board. They may have pushed him too far forward and they’re going to find out they’ve sacrificed their queen.”
>> I used to think Mayweather was the Bobby Fischer of boxing...maybe it's Zab Judah!
