After Zab Judah created “The Funky Judah” dance after going down nearly three times from a big right hand from then jr. welterweight champion Kostya Tszyu, he is set to add a few more impromptu dance steps when he steps into the ring with everyone’s best pound for pound fighter, former Jr.Welterweight champion Floyd “Pretty Boy” Mayweather.
On April 8, 2006, Zab and Floyd will be fighting for Judah’s IBF Welterweight title at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas. It still tickles me whenever I see a replay of the Tszyu-Judah fight that was fought on March 11, 2001, after setting a blistering pace in the first round, Zab looked as though he was going to be hard to beat, let alone catch. I can only imagine, due to the fact that he had won the first round so convincingly, Zab for some reason or other, slowed down the pace in order to have some fun at Kostya’s expense…big mistake!
“The Thunder From Down Under” stalked him until he had Zab dead in his sights, Judah never saw the big right hand from Kostya Tszyu, he hit Zab so hard he went down twice from the same punch, if referee Jay Nady had not caught and held Judah up after the second knockdown, Zabdiel would have gone down for the third time from Kostya’s right hand bomb. This is when Zab began doing his improvised little dance around the ring. Nady wisely stopped the contest at the official time of 2:59 of the second round. Had he not stopped it when he did, Kostya could have seriously injured a helpless, whacked out Judah. It would have taken more than one minute to revive his badly, scrambled brain. [details]
