Ummm a contract to fight Zab was in place BEFORE he lost to Baldi.I was watching Sworn Enemies(countdown to Mayweather/Judah) and came accross this little quote from Zab Judah.
"I think the only reason this fight is made is because Mayweather saw an opportunity, he thought I was vulnerable, he sat there with his friends and watched my loss to Baldamir and said you know what I can beat him now. This is what Mayweather does, he goes in there and fights fighters when they're finished". - Zab JudahComment

Hatton fought a champ in his first fight at 147....a nice southpaw at that. The first left hook Hatton threw, he knocked Luis down. But besides that, when they were BOTH at 140 pounds, Hatton was reportedly "not ready" for Floyd after beating Kostya. Then, Floyd won the title at 147, then went up to 54 to and beat Oscar and ya'll want to knock him for NOT going all the way back down to 140 to fight Hatton (the guy that wasn't ready for him at that weight)? Please.
I never said Floyd had to go down to 140 to fight Hatton or 135 to fight Marquez. It's just that fighting those type of guys at 147 gives Floyd the advantage. That is the theory that is being discussed here ....Comment

Kind of like Pac fighting Cotto at 145 for a WW title.
And fighting Cotto at 150 for a 154 Pound title.Comment

What advantage did Floyd have over Hatton by the fight being at 140 pounds? Was Floyd too big for Hatton.....

They agreed to fight before Zab fought Baldo and nobody knew he was going to lose to Baldo.I was watching Sworn Enemies(countdown to Mayweather/Judah) and came accross this little quote from Zab Judah.

Funny how people criticize him for fighting and beating the **** out of Zab because I remember a lot of fighters, commentators, fans, and experts wanted him to fight Zab.Comment

Now you want Floyd to fight a guy who said he is not ready to fight Floyd? Come on ....
Don't you want to see Floyd in a few fights where there is enough risk that you can finally put all this talk to bed?Comment

What I want is for guys to stop complaining about Hatton going up in weight to fight Floyd...that is what I want. That is what happens in the sport. No one complained when Floyd went up in weight to fight JLC or Oscar. And I have realized that "this talk" won't go anywhere.Comment

Im sure they're around I remember this though. Zab had to fight Bali due to some **** about the belts if I remember correctly. It was basically set in stone that Judah would beat Baldi. Floyd didnt know he would lose. No one did.Comment
