Does Vernon Paris have a snowball chance in hell?

Just because Judah is mentally weak and fails almost every time he has to do the job.

Thoughts?

Paris will knock out Judah

Paris has a chance. Judah can fail in the big stage, but he can beat the Matthysse's, Mabuza's, Witter's and Spinks. He can beat the good fighters, but not the very good-great fighters. We'll see where Paris stands.

i've never seen paris fight but here's some things i noticed by browsing his record

-knocked down by tim coleman who doesn't appear to be much of a puncher with 5 stoppages in 19 wins. is his chin questionable?

-only fighter to beat courtney burton and not stop him. does he have the power to hurt or stop judah?

-very close scores in the burton fight. burton had been shot for years and only had 1 fight in 4 years before fighting paris. along with 3 fights that were NC (drug test failures i think someone on here mentiond), maybe this guy doesn't take his training as serious as he should?

i think i like judah in this one

You won't have to ask in a few hours. You'll see that Judah isn't **** and Vernon actually has a future.

Vernon Paris is tough, young, and skilled.

Zab Judah is old, shot, and mentally weak. In the Khan fight, he could not pull the trigger. Just as bad as Shame Mosley. Time to pack it in, Zab.

yeah this fight could be like the Holt vs Coleman fight last week, in which the veteran just schools the younger fighter

it all depends on how Vernon Paris fights, can't just think he can jump in and go to the body and win, you have to BOX SMART AGAINST JUDAH and then get him to break down mentally and then start making him pay for his mistakes

Judah is not as easy of a fight then people think!

^Just like I thought!

The future of boxing is not looking all that great, these young fighters have more PHYSICAL TOOLS then past fighters, but Mentally...VERY WEAK! Also a lot of them are One-Dimensional, not much versatility!
