Juan Manuel Marquez vs Zab Judah @ 140 who takes it?

[esconore]

If Judah could win in an impressive way, I would love to see him fight Pacquaio.

he weighted 146 his last fight and looked great..not sure what you're talking bout

i am basing on the fact the match against zab would not be an inside match.
jmm has slowed down very noticeably at this weight and a jab/counterpunch match would be very interesting. i see a closer match depending on jmm moves. btw, zab was losing before KOing his opponent in the last match. i guess i probably need to see that fight again and reassess.

not sure....jmm got hit a lot vs katsidis and he aint as good nor as powerful as zab, the only problem i have if i have pick zab is his contioning and mentality ...good intriguing fight....

How the **** do you come up with that ridiculous statement since he's never fought at 140??? It's easy to say he looks horrible putting on weight when he just bloats up right away to 147 against one of the best fighters in the game today, definitely the best defensive fighter in some time.

read my post again. i never said he never fought at 140. i said he doesn't carry the weight well.

If this were to happen, I think I have zab takin it. Like i said in a previous thread, I am a zab fan, and I think I might hold his skill set in a higher regard then some posters here, but in my opinion I have zab winning.

Don't get me wrong I think jmm is sick, I just like zab Judah in this particular match up.

That's the only thing Zab really has going for him is that Marquez looks best against come forward fighters because his counter punching is amazing but Zab is a fast speed boxer so he could definitely mayweather him in root to a decision. Definitely think the first 5 rounds are exciting & competitive, it's up to Judah if he can keep it up the rest of the way to make it a real hard fought close ass decision.

However Marquez is my boy so I think he starts breaking Judah after that 5th round and stops him in the championship rounds(10-12) and shocks the world like we he knocked out Casamayor.

jmm fought at 144 vs floyd

Big difference between weighing in at 135 and entering the ring at 146 and actually weighing in at 140. As the Mayweather fight showed.

I think Marquez is too past it to deal with Judah's speed. Judah isn't good enough to blow Marquez away, but the athletic advantage is too much. That in addition to Judah's power, and I would expect him to win this. Not sure where people are getting the idea Marquez is slick or will avoid Judah's punches, Marquez doesn't avoid much nowadays. He's also not the same Marquez from the Pacquiao fights, much as people still think he is.

Judah by decision. Marquez is ripe for the picking, and got dropped badly by a Katsidis left hand in his last fight. he has always had trouble with southpaws with movement, like John and Norwood.

Judah isnt quite prime, but imo he will beat Marquez with Whitaker now in his corner.

JMM is way too overrated at these weights
