I think this is a very intriguing fight and am happy to see it was signed. Khan has not faced anyone with Zab's speed or credentials yet, and it has been a long time since Zab faced a championship caliber fighter. I am not a Khan hater, or a Khan lover, but I see Zab unifying and then going after Bradley, which would be an even more interesting fight. Thoughts?
khan is quite feather fisted he overwhelms more then anything....i think zab will be able to spark him midway.....great fight props to both fighters you have to respect amir khan's choice in opponent
Oh and in the second Spinks fight he came in very focused, for short money in Cory's hometown.
Last time Judah fought the Wba champ at 140 in Vegas he got KO'd. Doesn't really mean much.
50/50 fight. Khan should just box from a distance with his reach advantage. If he goes running in, Zab will clock him with that left.
I think zab will win also
if maidana can touch khan then i know zab will
Maidana didn't really touch Khan though, he got lucky with one of those blind overhead bombs he throws. Until that point (near R.7) he was barely in the fight.
Judah is weak mentally and start losing confidence when he gets hit and when he can't get his opponent out early. If Judah doesn't KO Khan inside 5 rounds it will be all Khan and Judah's only shot is a haymaker.
I see Khan winning this fight by TKO round 8-10
Very true. When Judah gets hit he seems to lose a lot of belief, more than is expected from a top pro boxer. But he has power and speed and on that basis, he can't be counted out.
I think Khan has the right sparring partner in Pacquiao to prepare for Judah.
Judah imo is gonna be getting backed up with fast hard jabs and straight shots followed up with turbo combinations, Khan is the more skilled of the two and by far the stronger mentally
HOWEVER.......... Zab has a shot against almost anyone let anlone a guy with Khans chin, i can easily see a Huge Left cross or uppercut detonating on Khans chin and then we have a whole different fight!
I got Amir to win but am well aware Judah has the speed and power to take him out
I'm neither a Khan or Judah fan, I think it's a great fight and I agree that Khan-Bradley could have been a stinkfest. Judah's problem has always been focus. He's great for four/five rounds and then loses focus. Although, I think he showed a lot of heart in the Cotto fight. Granted he lost but a really good outing for Zab.

if maidana can touch khan then i know zab will
i agree as far as Zab being able to touch khan but i will also say the big difference is Maidana is a slugger and doesnt care about getting hit as long as he gets to trade and gets his shots in as well.
Zab on the other hand has a glass jaw.
Judah cant put himself in the same position as Maidana due to that.
i Struggle see'n Judah winning this fight, the thing is i actually want him to, Fighters that make Zab fight he's always struggled with and he doesn't like pressure at all, it gets him frustrated and he tends to get out of control once that happens.
But then again who knows Zab may really put everything he has into this fight because he probably knows this is his last shot at really being relevant , if he wins he puts himself in pretty good position, but if he loses thats probably the last we'll here about him as far as being involved in a great matchup.
at least this is a legit matchup folks want to see from the jump though..im already itching to see it , should be a good one.

Couldn't agree more I'm so pumped for this fight! Going to be very exciting, alot more exciting then Bradley-Khan which I think could be a stinker.
Very interesting fight indeed. Khan's either going to show the world how good he really is or Judah's going to show the world he isn't done just yet. Very exciting for this fight, hoping Judah pulls it out! :boxing:
I'm with you on hoping Judah pulls it out, and I think he can.
I agree that this is a very intriguing fight but Zab's best days are behind him imo. I think Khan wins.
I will have to admit that Judah hasnt faced anyone lately to tell us how much he really has left in the tank.
