LOL @ him trying to gesture & taunt a 10-loss journeyman in a fight that's been boring since round 4. If you're going to showboat at the beginning of the round, at least close the show that round... Vazquez is getting beat on the scorecards, but he's outshined Judah in terms of character
I am so sorry, but class or lack thereof is not paramount in freaking BOXING. You are beating up another human being, for goodness sakes. Some of you just make this too deep and or out to be more than what it is. The man has a personal style that he feels works for him. Being overly anylitical about it will not change it. If you do not like it, oh well. None of us know him so who cares. Sheesh!
I wouldn't call him classless. He admires himself too often for his own good. You can see how much he tries to convince himself of himself with every little move. Someone who has real confidence doesn't get so easily impressed with himself
Like when he was playing with his new iPhone...I was cracking up.
I've seen numerous Judah "lack of class" moments and actually experienced his likely-cultured entourage live at the Spinks II fight, so you'll forgive me if I don't give him the benefit of the doubt...
Absolutely.
You always make solid points here man. I was just wondering what you thought about my post, and if it maybe had any credibility in it at all? Was I giving udah too much credit? Or do you think it was a combination of both perhaps?

A part of athletics for poor sportsmen. There are other ways of initiating contact if that's what he was trying to do. It wasn't a little "razzle dazzle" while he was closing the show - it was out of nowhere, he didn't back it up, and it made him look like an ass...
Had I been posting on boxingscene as I watched Malignaggi a few years back either against Cano or the Shobox fight before that, I would have gotten on him too in a thread - it was still well before the end of the fight and obviously Paulie isn't going to KO too many folks... but I bring that up because it's a shame someone polluted the thread with a racial stereotype. Judah's race had nothing to do with my criticism

Who cares?? I don't really. I think you guys are reading into this a little too much. Showboating is part of athletics.

he was taunting him to get him to come forward towards him
zab was obviously trying to get rounds in, and his corner told him to 'put on a show' in the later rounds. After the fight, Zab also said he broke his left hand in the 7/8th round, which is why he couldnt throw it very much at all. After looking at the replays he seemed to be telling the truth. His taunting wasn't that bad, I thought it was funny...it was Zab being Zab. I think he is slowing down his style so he doesn't fade out in the later rounds anymore
I don't think Judah was being classless. I think it was a case of his confidence level being low, and he was trying to reassure himself, if anything, that he could win the fight. You have to remember Judah was on a serious losing streak, and his only non loss in the last 4 years was a no contest on "Friday Night Fights".
I think he expected to plow right through Vazquez, and when he couldn't, he got shaken up a bit. I think his taunting and pointing to his chest (saying "I got heart" essentially) was a way of him trying to rebuild some of his obviously lost confidence in himself.

Your the guy that replied on another thread stating "I agree with you. I'd say most average men are at least 190 lbs. And sitting around 5'10''."
After reading your comments, I realized you don't put much thought into anything that you write.
On that note, how does it feel to look in the mirror knowing the person looking back at you is stupid?
