damn...its gotten this bad for judah....matthew hatton....damn

You want to know what is worse then fighting Matthew Hatton? When if you score a victory over him it is your biggest victory in years (that is pretty low when you considered the heights that Zab reached at various points).

Well if Pryor is not available they should look to Argeullo, sure he lost to Pyror but any other 140 pounder no way!

Sadly, that is true. Judah has gotten more mileage out of accomplishing nothing than almost any other fighter around now.

i dont get that but i was being sarcastic.

Judah is a funny character, when he fights nobodies or lesser fighters he can't KO them. But when he fights someone who is good, he is in a kind of competitive fight. He was in a competitive fight with Clottey before getting stopped.

a complete fall from grace...it wasnt that long ago that his name had actual value...i still cant believe they're reduced to fighting matthew f'n hatton

unless the fight is fixed, judah will or should easily beat him.

I would honestly not have a problem with Zab getting big fights if he atleast beat some decent fighters to stay in the mix, instead of the host of clowns he has beaten since beating Spinks.

Zab is pretty lucky that Floyd might need Zab as a sparring partner fo a certain superstar, so Floyd would go to bat for Zab and get him this shot, his career was on a path to nowhere I could atleast envision him getting his carreer back in order (but only if he wants it and willing to make the sacrifices, always a large cloud over what Zab can do with his career at this point).

Sadly he still does have name value, to me it was a smart move to put him on this card. Both Zab and Floyd are big in the Hip-Hop world, which is mostly where Floyd's fanbase comes from (casual fans and the people that would actually cheer him on as opposed to paying to see him get beat).

I can't fault Zab for fighting Hatton here (especially since they are promoting the Floyd fight in the UK why I don't know but they must know something I don't, but I guess it can't hurt that much since it should only be an added revenue stream) because his career is completely off the rails at this point and if he really wants to put his career back together he needs to take small steps (but actually fighting and beating some halfway decent fighters, I don't really think of Hatton as half-way decent maybe 1/3 decent but have to start somewhere).
