By Jake Donovan - Tim Bradley has been served notice – either get your ass in the ring or concede the top spot to those making noise in the ring.
Amir Khan served notice in a big way to the boxing world on Saturday evening at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, Nevada with a fifth round knockout of two-division titlist Zab Judah.
Both fighters weighed in at the super lightweight limit of 140 lb for their alphabet unification match.
The opening round was an awkward chess match for both combatants. Khan was overshooting with his right hand, while Judah fell short with his right jab, rarely following up with his left, though both managed to land their money shot on separate occasions in the otherwise uneventful round. A clash of heads left Judah briefly buzzed, though more discouraged that the sequence went undisciplined by the referee.
It was as close as the fight came to being competitive, as Khan controlled whatever action took place in the majority of the subsequent rounds. A more subdued Judah was passive almost to a fault, not letting his hands go enough and coming up short whenever he did throw his shots. Khan caught wind of it and boxed at his leisure.
