Comments Thread For: Khan, Judah Trade Words Over The Final KO Punch

[VERILY]

The punch was a legal blow which landed on the beltline, but what I think happened was that the blow shifted the cup which made Judah feel like he had been hit by a low blow, sometimes those cups can shift upwards into an.....uncomfortable spot.

Possible, makes the punch a double whammy. Good thought.

No controversy here, Zab was making excuses and looking for a way out from the first round on when he immediately looked to the ref after a head clash. Judah has no heart and no grit and just cries to the ref and the world. I hope to God Judah never gets another appearance on a premium network, he does not deserve it. There is nothing he can do to redeem himself, he let all boxing fans down with that pitiful display of cowardice.

You're entirely overstating a slight reaction to the head clash in R1 - I think we're going extra hard on Zab here just 'cause it's Zab. He wasn't "looking for a way out" and only a fool would accuse him of it based on what we saw in there. He fought respectfully and honorably and was simply overwhelmed and eventually hurt by a younger, higher caliber gun.

He certainly didn't stay down out of cowardice, IMO - man was legitimately wounded by that bodyshot.

It looked like a borderline low blow, honestly this is why instant replay is a requirement in Boxing and I'm pretty sure had it been in effect tonight Vic would have let it continue a bit, if not for the blow being low then because he would have had time to realize that Khan was leaning on Judah's head as he punched which is illegal, Judah didn't ever have a chance to dodge that body shot because Khan's forearm was leaning on Judah's neck, watch it again you'll see what I'm saying. I'm still very surprised no one has mentioned that

Khan would have won regardless so I don't think it makes much of a difference in the end, Zab would have needed a home run but Khan wasn't giving him the open room to score it

I can't believe "SAD JUDAH" cried low blow even though Khan's shot landed flush on the belt that he was practically wearing on his neck. Were those low blows too that wrecked his face? What a cry baby. Then he said he thought he was getting an 8 count even though he was on his knees. It's called a STANDING 8 count. Not too mention, they AGREED on NO STANDING 8 counts. New Yorkers take their a$$ whipping like men! This is what happens when they become famous & relocate.

Zab ducked under Khan - Khan's left hand was already in motion and settled on Judah's head, but there was no great downward pressure. And the blow was legal, landing on a beltline that was more high than low.





As for Zab's comments; he knew he was being counted out and couldn't rise - my instinct watching Zab on his knees was that he was hurt.

The comments about thinking he was being given time to recover and thinking he was getting a standing eight count are contradictory, obviously not thought out but rather blurted in a haste to try and save some face because his pride is hurting. It's a cold man who could hold that against him.

I wanna say that my prediction on Zab winning by 6th rd was wrong... This was pathetic performance...It was like Manny vs Mosley...Joke of a fight.. Much respect for Khan's handspeed...Pretty sick...I think Bradley beats Khan though...

[B.R!ghteous]

I told BHop my 6th round KO prediction too... but I predicted Judah would be eating canvas. Hey, not bad, I was only off by a couple of minutes. I'm not too sure about Bradley. He's soft and won't even take the fight. Khan already offered a 50/50 split purse & he refused. Let's see if Prescott will come up to 140 & prove he didn't KO King Khan by a fluke due to Amir sucking weight at 135.

[matt73uk]

It made me laugh when Judah said he thought the ref was giving him an 8 count, because the rules of this bout which were given to both boxers in their dressing rooms before the fight, and they have to acknowledge they understand them....said that there would be no standing 8 counts!

Same old Judah can't take defeat. Always looking for an excuse! Oh well at least he didn't cause a riot like when he lost to Mayweather on points, or throw a stool like he did when he lost to Tszyu.

Great performance by Khan, obviously improving with each fight. Hopefully Bradley will come out of hiding and fight him next although I highly doubt it. Most likely he'll face Morales in December where the exact same thing will happen.

zab was hit in his v_agina, and quit in there like a sore loser that he is. only fools never saw that coming.
i said yesterday, zab was just coming into the ring to sell his belt for 500k$.
forget bradley. the guy is clearly running.
get a tuneup or 2, then floyd in 2012 in the UK.

[DoomCity202]

congratulations to that mothafcker

i would have rather seen judah bite an ear than just quit

i need to go back and see this blow he's talking about
he quit before he even got hit with the blow.

He made Brooklyn look like B.A.N.s

i was disgusted and turned the tv off after the count and
went straight to bed.

As was said...made him look like a 33year old fighter.

And 33 years old is not old. :smh:

[Phatfarm1980]

Khan proves himself again! Seems to be improving
