I couldnt see the fight because i was out of town, all i heard from my brother/father was that it was supposed to be a draw since apparently spinks got knocked silly in the later rounds, and judah went down in the early rounds, anyhow, is it possible you guys could tell me what happened and what you thought?

It was a great fight. I'm looking forward to the sequel rumored to be coming in Jan or Feb (until Spinks started calling out Trinidad, anyway).Originally posted by Black Jesus
It's one of the top 5 fights of they year. I'd check it out if you have access to it. -
My memory needed jogging. I didn't think Judah went down early. I checked it out and Judah was down in the 11th; Spinks in the 12th. The reason that was exciting is that Spinks looked to have the fight in the bag (though not by a ton), and Judah's knockdown put the final decision in doubt.Originally posted by Black JesusComment

The fight was frustrating for me to watch. Physically, Judah has everything he needs to beat Spinks, but he just wasn't focused and ended up giving away too many of the early rounds. Spinks got the balance knock down on Judah and then he finally started fighting and put Spinks on his ass in the 12th and hurt him. If Judah had fought the entire fight like he gave a damn I think he could have won.Comment

If Judah could put together 12 rounds like he's capable, he could run the table at 140 and maybe 147.Originally posted by ghostbear
Zab seems to have ADD or something. Wasn't that the fight or was it the one a month later where he got distracted by the audience and took his eyes off his opponent in the middle of the round? And you can remember the Tszyu fight...If his head was in it, he'd be headlining PPVs, not destroying overmatched sacrificial lambs on Don King undercards.
He can beat Spinks; I don't think he will though. But the fact that he has all the skills to do it and Spinks seems pretty safe right now with the current batch of welterweights makes me eager to see this one.Comment

ZAB gave away too many points in the early going while trying to figure out Sphinks . . . he rallied on the later part but Spinks has already established himself, so it too late. There was no pressure at all from ZAB that's why Spinks was able to gather his points in the early part.Comment

Zab can definately **** up Spinks if they go toe to toe. I think he punches harder. He was a bit tentative and looked for the one shot kill. But he should just punch his way in.Comment
