Zab Judah gets another Chance at Spinks

[Mr. Ryan]

We all remember the expectations of Zab Judah at 140. He was supposed to be Pernell Whitaker meets Mike Tyson and was gonna go undefeated through his career and retire at 100-0. Well, Kostya Tszyu kinda derailed that and his close loss to 147 lb. Kingpin Corey Spinks again underlined his shortcomings as a fighter. But now he gets his chance at redemption as Don King signed this fight as part of one of his marathon PPV headliners to be featued in January. Does Zab Judah finally get it right the second time around, or does Corey Spinks sneak by with another win?

I think it will be another close fight with Judah winning a clear cut decision this time. I thought he won the first fight but it was close enough that I could see a person having Spinks winning.

JUdah should be able to pull this one off now

sure he does, would you not like to know what would happen in a Ruiz vs Golota 2 or even Golota vs Byrd 2 or Byrd vs Oquendo 2, etc... all close fights exp Byrd vs Oquendo IMO

[Mr. Ryan]

ofcourse he does

Against who? He looked terrible against Pineda and blew out a Wayne Martell who was clearly not a good fighter.

Judah is the only "name" at 147 and made Cory look silly by almost knocking him the **** out in the 12th round. Not to mention that many people, including me, had Zab winning a close fight. Spinks has not done much of anything himself, other then fighting an older then old Miguel Gonzalez. Tszyu is not going to fight Spinks next and he is not going to drop all of his belts to move up 154 or get his deathwish by fighting Trinidad.

Don King knows that if Judah beats Spinks, there is much more money involved in a Judah-Tszyu rematch.

You have a point, but as a fighter Judah has not earned this opportunity.
