    but much like hopkins/jones, this is a great fight that could not have been made at a worse time. judah has been exposed and has lost 2 of his 3 titles. that eliminates more than half of the luster that this fight once had.

    we talk about it cuz we feel cheated. it couldve been a great fight, but it also couldve been made under much better circumstances.
    That basically sums it up. Another example would be Mosley-Vargas. I will probably still buy this one, but 3 or 4 years ago, this would have been a huge matchup. Fighters need to start taking these huge superbouts while they're in their prime, and not when they're looking to pad the retirement fund.

      The Truth....my brother....

      The reason I'm talking about this fight is because it's such a crappy PPV, PPV fights are supposed to be against TOP NOTCH fighters...

      It was supposed to be with 2 of the best fighters in the welterweight area...Zab was getting ready to be a top p4p fighter, and Floyd was going to make his statement at why he's #1...

      Then Judah loses to a BUM by the name of Baldomir, Baldomir was beat by a bunch of other GARBAGE fighters...

      Don't bring up the style factor either, Baldomir had no style, he's just punch...lol...

      Judah looked like straight up ass crack...
      He just exposed him for the 4th time that he's a overrated ****..

      Judah is overrated, that's the ONLY reason people are going to watch this...and any real fan would buy morales-pacquiao over this crap...

      Judah was blaming Don King for his loss..(Really say he wasn't blaming him, but yeah right, we all saw that... )


      Don King was doing Zab Judah a favor, he was trying to get him a BIG fan base in New York, he took Zab on radio stations or whatever to promote the fight so they could get a FULL arena in the 5,000 seat Madison Square Garden Theater...which they did...

      He was supposed to look spectacular, so he would have a big fan base going into the Mayweather fight at a BIG arena...

      This fight means nothing now..

        I mean I agree with probably 90% of what you said. My whole point is I still think its going to be a good fight to watch. Zab is a good fighter and hes a slickster. And then Floyd is man and he is also a slick fighter. Its a good matchup...

          Yeah, you can say that...
          but I just don't have the desire to see this no more...

          I remember I made a thread before the fight saying..
          "What if Judah loses?" then I said naa impossible, if it happened, I would die of being pissed...

          but it happened...
          I couldn't believe it...

          That night before the fight, I was talking to my dad about going to Vegas for this fight...a few hours later....

          There's just no HYPE to go with the fight no more...

            Good match up? What could Zab do to Floyd that would impact the fight in any way?

              Zab is a very good fighter...I would be suprised if he gave PBF a little trouble.

                If you think about it.

                Hatton
                - Tszyu
                - Maussa
                - Mandatory (Ben Rabah isnt it?)
                - Castillo
                - Cotto

                Is way way way better than

                Mayweather
                - Gatti
                - Bruseles
                - Mitchell
                - Mandatory (Witter)
                - Zab Judah

                That is, if the plans are correct, and if indeed PBF DOES fight Zab and Hatton DOES fight Castillo and Cotto this year like he said he would....

                In fact Hatton could still fit in PBF, right at the end of 2006 if he does that, and if he destroys all 3, im sorry, but he will be simply... the .... best.

                how the hell can you have maussa as a good opponent?

                first off judah is gonna beat mayweather but if mayweather beat him he definitely has the better resume, if your talking about now or over their whole career.

                mayweather has beat - chico, castillo x2, sosa, g. hernandez, c. hernandez, j. chavez, corley, gatti, mitchell, g. vargas, burton,

                hatton has beat tszyu, thats it and if he beats castillo which i doubt he would mayweather beat him twice already so who cares. if he beats cotto that would be impressive but still no where close to equaling mayweathers competition.

                hatton also beat phillips, tackie, michael stewart, all after mitchell beat them.

                and he beat maussa after maussa caught harris on a horrible night, but everyone knows maussa sucks.

                    Why? it may be a good fight or a one sided whoop ass by PBF. I'd prefer to see Hatton or Cotto. Hatton has a good shot I think or at least would make for an exciting fight. Hatton is a warrior.

                      im not talking about hatton or cotto.

                      this was supposed to be a fight between #1 and #2 p4p best fighters in the world. since judah's humiliating loss, he has completely lost his p4p status. and since judah's not nearly as good as many thought he was, we all know that floyd would just beat him like a little *****.

                      theres no more mystery, there are no more questions, there are no more possibilities. we all know what will happen once this fight comes off:

                      floyd by easy TKO.
