Judah setting himself up to lose

[Easy-E]

Yeah, but he's not going to have any problem with Baldomir, who doesn't seem to be a big puncher nor a tremendous boxer. You have to be one or the other to beat Zab.

Zab's a pro. He'll TCOB.

And then the Zab/Floyd predictions will begin full-swing. If Zab looks amazing with a KO, then you'll see a swing towards everyone picking Zab. If Zab wins but looks sluggish (ala Spinks 1) then you'll see landslide Floyd predictions. This always happens. But really, how he does against Baldomir has no bearing on how he will do against Floyd.

not true, if zab looks like ****, your right, more votes will go to floyd, but if zab wins via impressive ko, he beat a bum. i cant imagine any of the people who were picking floyd will be swayed by a ko of this bum

[masterdirector]

No he wasn't. How can you possibly say that he was on his way to stopping Tszyu after one round? The second round Kostya found his range and had started to land a bit more frequently, and then in the last few seconds of the second he KO'ed him. It would have come a bit later if he hadn't caught him in the second. Tszyu would have won that fight by KO before six, but it wouldn't have been half as humerous.

whatever, Judah would've won easily had he been given the opportunity to continue. Unfortunately, Gay Nady jumped at the chance to rob Zab. Same ref let Vargas go on for 11 more rounds after Tito took care of him in the 1st. Not Zab though, a clearly more skilled fighter, not to mention the favorite.

I think most will pick Floyd to beat the **** out of Zab no matter what Zab does to f'n Baldomir. It is a shame Floyd had to go and fight Zab so soon. Floyd had a great career while it lasted. I wonder what'll hurt more, Floyd's brain or ego, when he gets chin checked on April 8th.

you never know this baldimor guy could probaly knock judah out... but i doubt it cause anythin could happen in a fight... i just hope that doesnt happen cause i want to see a judah and floyd fight.

Nady was just following the rules of the game. The fight had to be waved off when Judah went down the second time. Judah showed that he has absolutely no class in the aftermath of that fight.


I don't much like Mayweather either, but the guy has all the tools to beat Zab Judah.

[Bozo_no no]

Nadey stated in an interview afterwards, that he looked at Judah's eyes when he jumped up, and said they were glazed. He mentioned that he is trained to look for a concussion, and he firmly believed Zab had suffered one.

He also mentioned that a few months later, Judah came to him in person at an event, apologized for his behavior, and thanked him for stopping it when he did, acknowledging Nadey had done the right thing.

With all this Mayweather talk in the back of his head, Judah might be handling this situation very poorly. He's got a fight in a couple weeks that he needs to win in order to get Mayweather, but his mind is only on Mayweather. I'm not gonna pretend to know **** about Baldomir, but Judah is screwing around too much here. He's either going to be thinking about Mayweather and struggle with this dude a little bit or he's gonna come out trying to look like a killer against this dude. Either way, he's handling it wrong.

Get your mind off Mayweather and on your mandatory, Zab!

Judah apparently came out last week saying that he would fight Kostya Tszyu again and that the door was open for him...........yet, at the same time he goes and plans two other fights.........

what is he doing?...i don't know, but he doesn't seem to be too interested in revenging his loss to KT.........or he wants KT to get older and older and more inactive to then fight him!!!!!!!!...

i wonder?@!?!?!?!?#$$?%@%#!

[moochi]

I agree, Zab was certaintly on his way to stopping Tszyu. But credit to Tszyu he is a great puncher, and landed a great shot on Zab's below average chin.

**** u made me laugh with that one...........how in the **** was he on his way to stopping tszyu????????????? having a good opening half of the first round and then to be tamed and then KTFO in the second round.......where in the **** did you come up with that one mate!!!!!

[LondonRingRules]

Zabby is always ready to lose. He lacks mental fortitude such that I could even see him showboating and sticking his chin out with hands dropped inviting a free shot from Baldimor or joking around with his little buddies in the audience while Baldimor is working inside like Roy did against Johnson. Geez, the poor guy was dropped by Spinks, so you'd think he'd learn some discipline. Maybe he has, but I have my doubts.

Now, a KT fight might be great. KT was rumored to have weight problems like Gatti, and Zab will have to hold back on KT until he can get up the courage to mount a credible attack. That goofy KO highlight that's the rage of non boxing internet websites is the kinda thing that is gonna tug at his confidence.

Believe it or not this Baldomir guy has a very good chin.

He hasn't been knocked out since 1994. Seems like his chin is good.

Granted he hasn't fought many class opponents like Judah, with a lot of early KO's.

However, all Judah's early KO's have come against Bums, that probably don't have half the chin Baldomir does.

Let's look at the guys who did have good chins.

Ward, Corley, Tszyu, Witter.

He won by decision on three occasions, and got KO'D by Tszyu.

All in all, I wouldn't call Baldomir a Bum, but he is definitely in a class below Judah, maybe 2.

I think Baldomir can hold up, and take it to a decision, Time is also running out for Baldomir as he is 34, he will give it his all.

Judah by Decision or Late KO, as per my picks below! got mad $$$$$$$$$$ on it.

Just thought I'd give my 2 cents on the upcoming fight.
