One is a fighter who, despite exceptional achievement, can be seen by some as having fallen short of his potential. The other exceeded what anyone expected, if only for a night. Both will enter the ring Friday at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, two wins removed from their most recent defeats and their careers colliding at a similar point of desperation. It has the ingredients of quality theatre, but the play is the thing. It won’t be known until the first act begins at the opening bell just how well Zab Judah and Jose Armando Santa Cruz play together. It is a significant crossroads battle between a man who was king and a man who should have been. [Click Here To Read More]

The Zab that Cliff described here, is the Zab that I remember.
Judah was a terrific fighter and many scribes were ringing his bell.
I can remember hearing a commentator say " this kid could be the next SRL "

AnotHer excellent article from crold.
Zab has to be the favorite In this fight unless zab has slowed down recently but it's great to see that espn2 has been on FIRE lately. I can't wait to see this excellent style matchup. I'm kinda hoping to see zab lose and disappear forever. If zab wins, you know he's going o be sacraficed to khan cuz we all know Amir is desparate for easy marks/money. No way Bradley or Alexander or anyone else gets to eat of zab's name.Comment
