I won't!! lol I could be wrong, but I think Zab is smarter now than he's ever been. He may possibly be a better fighter now, too. Judah has plenty of losses but with the exception of the Cotto/Floyd/Clottey fights, he really hasn't taken much damage.
I expect Judah to have problems with Khan's length and volume, but I won't be surprised if Zab sets Khan up with something and KO's him early. Thoughts?
zab is gonna lose ..zab was done years ago..I don't know why people even give him a chance of beating jaw-khan.
I agree with this completely. It's not 2005 any more, Zab is not to be feared by a top class fighter.
Khan's hype train stops at Judah's station. Maidana was able to clobber Khan with uppercuts which subsequently is Judah's money punch (albeit Maidana and Judah fight nothing alike).
Maidana's uppercuts were landing at will, Zab's left uppercut is deadly but I still think he's going to have a hard time dealing with Khan's reach and speed.

I actually think that his wits are the most underrated part of his game. Focus and smarts are different, we all know that he's lacked focus throughout his career, but he's extremely intelligent in when he actually is focused in the ring. He was focused early against Cotto until his nuts got punched a few times. He was focused early against Mayweather and was actually timing him, which is extremely hard to do since Mayweather is good at adjusting and disguising what he's going to do next.
I think that in his fight with Mabuza, he even though he looked like he was poised for another early lapse, he kept his composure and got himself together. He laid a nice trap to end the fight as well.

I'd give Zab at beating anyone at 140 not named Khan, Bradley, Alexander, Matthysse, Maidana, etc.
I don't see how he's beating Khan. He knocked out Santa Cruz, outpointed Matthysse by a cinch, and knocked out a guy who was leading on the scorecards out of the freaking blue.
No doubt Zab has power, but I'd consider it a huge upset if he won because quite frankly, Khan can win this on cruise control.
IDK he hasn't exactly looked like a classy boxer lately to me, kind of sloppy in his last fight and in the Maidana fight just jumping in with slaps and jumping out. He could jump into that uppercut though and it would be nap time for Khan.
Khan gonna stay away from him early and win rounds then turn up the heat as the fight drags on. Theres not gonna be many hooks or anything from Khan just straight punches and constant movement. I cant see Judah landing anything of significance honestly.
Very, because Zab has look absolutely awful in both his "comeback" fights, and those were against C -level competition.
Don't buy into HBOs hype, the dude has been shot for a while.

I wont be surprised a bit. Judah always had power, speed, and vast physical talent, what he lacked was discipline and focus. He hasnt fought anyone in the last few years that lets us know how much he has left in the tank, I think he has enough to beat Khan.
