Zab Judah vs Timothy Bradley July 17

[ny123]

I can't believe HBO is interested in this fight. I can't fuckin believe it.

why not you do know that even now judah has more of a name to the casual fan then both alexander and bradley combined right? hbo is in the boxing business to make money and they know by showcasing bradley against zab it gives bradley some exposure to the fans who dont have showtime and who dont read boxing websites like us. all this fight does is make the bradley alexander fight that much bigger when it does happen

[BoxerDood]

I'll tell you what my problem with this fight is. I won't believe it will happen until the bell sounds. Judah is almost as bad as Cintron is when it comes to being incoherent and mentally weak. Watch him pull out of this fight if it gets scheduled. Watch. Alexander has Bradley shook. That's all there is to it.

Of course I guess Alexander would fight Judah and was going to if he didn't have problems with his promoter. But isn't this the very reason why he should just be forgotten about? And it doesn't change the fact that Alexander is willing to fight Bradley with one hand tied behind his back.

I agree about the Judah/Cintron comparison.

But let me ask you this. Why would Bradley be willing to fight Khan and Ortiz, but scared of Alexander? Khan is bigger, faster and just as sharp as Alexander. His only downside is his chin, but Bradley isn't a big puncher and Khan's chin improved at 140, so that wouldn't make a difference. Ortiz is also bigger and much stronger than Alexander. His last two fighta were at 147. How many people have cracked Maidana's chin like that?

What does Alexander possess that these fighters don't (aside from heart if you count Ortiz)? I personally think Khan would give Bradley a harder time because he can't crack his him.

By th way, this rumor is false. Judah returns on the Friday (probably against some journeyman bum). Bradley fights the following day. I wouldn't be surpised if Bradley and Alexander fight next. All they have to do is call Shaw, which is something Team Alexander apparently forgot how to do, otherwise the fight would have been made.

how is bradleys chin? i think judah can KO him early

i saw bradley go down HARD against holt

Well Bradley got crushed with a perfect left hook. I think that shot proved his chin more than anything. He got up and bounced back well. I think Judah will pose a problem and stun him, but I see Bradley working him throughout the 12 round fight and maybe stopping him late. Bradley is a beast. I believe he is the best at 140.

Judah at 140 will make 90% of the people on this site look like fools

Cuz Zab did so well against Ernest Johnson at a lighter weight, right?


I think that fight shot some holes in the theory of a better smaller Zab Judah.

Just glancing over this thread you can see why a fight between Bradley and Judah makes sence.

I think Bradley and Alexander should have 1 showcase then fight each other, then fight in Vegas since that is neutral ground. That 1 extra showcase infront of the HBO lights and the hometown fans would be key in building the fight. That would be as far as I would push it off though since the winner of that fight appears headed for big things considering the people just north in need of notable foes.

The problem is, Zab isn't even a showcase fight anymore.

What did his last ppv do, and I can't even remember the dude he fought.

But it was bad.

Can't believe he has much shine at all anymore.

[THE REED]

Judah stuns Bradley early, gets tired, Bradley outworks him UD.

Spot, the ****, on.

Like 22k buys.

Not that Roy did well in his independents, but he didn't do 22k.

Probably the best one sentence prediction in the thread.

Can Judah still even make 140? Anyway, I will NEVER pick Judah over an elite fighter. Been burned too many times believing the hype.
