Zab Judah is a new man, no more being a hot head and fighting wild(front runner). those days are long gone, hes a much smarter fighter now since the Khan fight(which I think Khan was juicing in, I stand by that ****!). Zab was brilliant in his resent fight with Paris and showed he still has it(more relaxed in the ring). Marquez is a great counter puncher/brawler, but I dont think he can hang with good boxers(you see what Floyd did to him lol). and Rios aint ****!(a smaller version of Margarito) Zab would knock his block off if they ever met in the ring. real happy Judah is getting this opportunity to show his skills. Im calling it, he will stop Marquez and get a fight with Rios or the Pac-man

Judah's not the same fighter he was back then, and neither is JMM but he's still a great fighter even now, and Judah is an okay fighter now. Might as well make this fight now, it makes sense. Judah coming off some good wins and one bad loss. If you see Zab's last 4 fights, he hasn't exactly been fighting soft touches, and he is 3-1 against them. He lost to Khan as it was expected. It was also expected for him to lose against Mabuza and Paris, but he beat them.
He also outboxed Matthysse. Honestly, I think Zab is better than he's been in a very long time. Yes, he went through that stretch of losing all of his big fights from Baldomir, Mayweather, Cotto, and Clottey. But he's 6-1 in his last 7, stretching from 2008 to 2012. Hate him for his past and all, but at least give the him his just due for bouncing back against decent-good competition.
For whatever it's worth, what if Zab ends up turning in a better performance against Marquez than Pacquiao did in his 3 tries? But still loses, and then Marquez fights Pacquiao again and Pac looks terrible once again? I expect Zab to lose, but that's what's good about Zab now. his losses back then, were blessings in disguise. Cause now every one sees him as the guy who never wins a big fight, so if he wins it's an upset. If he keeps getting these unexpected wins, people will have to start respecting the guy.Comment

Mabuza nor Paris was favored over over Zab as I bet on him to beat them both. I also think Matthysse beat him & quite comfortably.
His problem is he is not an elite fighter, he doesn't have the mentality. He will beat C level opposition, he may beat B level opposition but when it comes to the elite level, he always folds.
I don't hate the guy, In fact I quite like him but I am just fed up of hearing of him & him winning worthless paper titles when reality is his best win is over Cory ****in' Spinks!
Hes not an elite fighter, he has lost to the 7 best fighters he has faced, should be 9 but he got two gift decisions.Comment

I 2nd this.
Eeeexactly!, Juicers on tht PED ****, there down there in the phillipines him & PACROID "they got that S H I T in them " Roger Mayweather. And I still stand by myy belief that juicer PACROID purposely didnt fight to HIS FULL JUICER potential in the 3rd Marquez fight, Marquez honestly at his age, fighting only at 147 once b4, shoudnt have lasted more than 3rds with PACROID, but then it would have been OBVIOUS TO ALL, that something was up, ARUM,ROACH, they all know that too.Originally posted by hitem27 View PostComment

Zab is NOT a new man. He's the same mentally weak fighter he's always been. He is a solid B class fighter now(with age and exp) but he has proven time and time again he falls short in the big fights. Zab in his prime was a B+ fighter and now, he's for sure not a B+ anymore, but still a solid fighter, just not the top tierComment

Most people think JMM was robbed vs Pacquiao all 3 times, does that make them right? Nope.Originally posted by commodus View Post
Those fights were very close and could've gone either way.Comment

Did Floyd hire you to say this? I bet you were laughing to yourself while posting it knowing good and well that it's total B.S.. JMM going to walk through Zab another easy win for him which will not help his legacy at all. And people say Pac is a cherry-picker but look who he's fighting next? Guerrero or Maidana or some damn body else would've been better than zab but they don't wanna ruin their chances for a 4th crack at once again "trying" to beat Pac knowing they cant but still lovin' that money.Originally posted by mananimal View PostComment
