Was just going to make a thread about this.
Danny ducks Lucas for the easy Judah fight.
Judah has a W over Lucas and sells way more tickets. Quit hating.
Why do people keep saying Matthysee beat Judah? Judah won the early rounds easy and the fight was close because of the knockdown.
People stay holding Matthysee's nuts.
Nobody wants to see Garcia vs Judah though. I'd like to see Garcia vs Matthysee, Soto, or Marquez.
I wouldn't call this a gimme. If he beats Peterson that would be wins over 2 of the top 5 fighters at 140.
True. I agree that a W over Vernon Paris doesn't warrant another title fight. But this is 100% business. And it can be sold easily. Schaeffer and Garcia can easily say "why fight Matthysse when were fighting the guy that beat Matthysse".
Judah slipped up against Khan. He fought hard against Matthysse to earn that title shot and rolled over when the fight got tough.I agree. It's a business move and they could say Judah beat Matthysse. Thinking fans know it was two years ago that Judah beat Lucas but then he was KOed by Khan. The fight will make money because Judah is well known and he is popular in Brooklin.The promoters and HBO and Showtime run boxing and we have to take what they give us. The feud between the two biggest promoters only makes things worse. Maybe Judah will train hard and give us one of his rare 100% efforts and win. When he is on Judah can fight and does not duck tough guys if he gets well paid. He might be the one to give Lucas a tittle shot if he gets lucky and beats Garcia. It's much more likely That Garcia will KO him of course.
He does not have to beat Peterson at all. Schaefer basically said Judah is Garcia's next fight. Judah gets the shot because he is low risk and fairly high reward.

Zab is a roach that just won't go away
oddly, he's done nothing except lose to be disliked
but can't stand him for that reason alone
let him be an ESPN fighter, but keep him off the big stage
well he did drop and beat floyd by dq but he hasn't done much since.
I am morally opposed to Zab Judah receiving title shots. He obviously doesn't deserve one.

Danny ducks Lucas for the easy Judah fight.I agree. He is afraid to fight Lucas even though he knows that's the fight most boxing fans want to see. He says Lucas is not one of the best because he has two losses and no tittles. He is fine with fighting Judah who has no tittles and seven losses because he knows he will beat the way past prime Judah. I'm sure he saw Lucas' two losses and knows they should have been wins. The reason Matthysse has no tittles is because chicken champs won't fight him. Danny is the WBC champ and Lucas is the #1 WBC contender while Judah is not even ranked in the in the WBC top 15.
hes got nothing on amir kahn
kahn gets al the shots in the world even aftyer being brutally koed
That's not fair to Khan at all. Judah has been getting undeserved title shots for a decade. Khan has a long way to go before he can match Judah there. He probably will one day, but as of now he has a long way to go.

Garcia a JWW and so is Rios,
Alexander is a WW now.
What's the point of your question?
Just curious as I can see Pac vs Rios, Mayweather vs Garcia, Judah vs Alexander fights taking place at WW. I hope I'm wrong. However Garcia Judah seems likely.
Yeah because all close fights should be awarded to Matthysse, right?
matthysse clearly won at least 6 rounds and had a knockdown so it's not possible to have zab winning. just saying oh it was close so the decision is just is a cop out.
If Judah beats peterson I wouldnt be opposed but Im sick of Judah getting all of these gimme title shots
