I can't see this being a close fight, so i have no real interest in it taking place.

Khan should fight Money May next.

Do you not think Judah with his speed, punch, skill, experience and southpaw stance at least has a good chance of catching Khan on his shaky chin? Remember the problems he gave Mayweather for the first half of their fight.

I'm quite interested in this fight actually and certainly will be putting a few bob on a Judah stoppage.

Despite my previous post I do think this will be a tough technical test for Khan. Judah is skilled, tough and very experienced. I expect Amir to have too much speed, freshness, volume and stamina. He won't be out-boxed by Zab, but does need to treat the fight seriously, or he could get surprised.

I don't think Judah is as good as he was when he fought Mayweather. I think Khan's speed, youth, workrate and stamina will ultimately prove too much for Judah as the fight goes on.
Roach will ensure Khan doesn't take this fight lightly. Taking it lightly is the only way I really see Judah winning this fight.

Judah is technically pretty good but he's nowhere near the Judah that fought Mayweather and the last person of worth that he's fought was Clottey and he lost that fight.

megadodge

That's all good and fine until you remember the amount of times Khan was caught by Maidana. Surely if he can get caught that often by a vastly inferior techical boxer whose speed isn't remotely near Judah's, then it's a near certainty that he'll get caught by Judah. And Zab can punch!

Spazdarn

His punching is nowhere near the level of Maidana though...

megadodge

I would disagree there plus he's a far sharper puncher than Maidana and basically can hurt anyone he hits not to mind someone with an iffy chin.

I'm not saying he'll win, but of all Khan's recent opponents he has possibly the best credentials (despite being past his best) to cause an upset.

Toilet, I don't think it's as simple as saying that Judah isn't as heavy or as forceful a hitter. Ok, let's for arguments sake say that he is not. I would still say he's a sharper and more technical hitter; better delivery and placement, and this can be every bit as dangerous as simple force and heaviness.

Basically saying what Mega is saying!

Have to agree with that. I cant see him lasting more than four rounds with Khan.
