Danny Garcia - Zab Judah

clubwelly · 23-04-2013 6:42pm #1

This one is sneaking under the radar at the mo.

I don't know how Zab has stayed on the boxing scene since the Mayweather disaster and after he quit against Khan but fair play to him.

Garcia has power but he hasn't been pushed to use a plan B by anyone yet.
Wonder if Judah will be the man to push him

I honestly hope someone demolishes Garcia in the near future so we never have to hear from his arse of an auld fella again. He's an insufferable ignoramus of a man.

Hope Zab wins, but the historical record suggests he'll fold when the pressure comes on.

Would love to see Zab win just to expose Garcia as the average crude brawler he is. Unlikely though.

If Judah is at his best he will win this one depends how much is left in the tank and will he give in to pressure again, Garcia is just waiting to be found out people forget before he did KO Khan he was being dominated in the fight, yes i realise he won but i honestly think Khan if he boxed smart would outbox him in a rematch, Garcia's father is one of the most classless idiots in boxing today (Thats saying something)! and i cant wait for the day when Danny is put on his arse

Garcia beat a shot Morales and a khan who thought he could forget about defence.khan had him til he got excited.Judah hurt Cotto twice early with the uppercut from the southpaw stance.Garcia says he wants to destroy Judah.Fighting angry leads to mistakes.

Brilliant stuff at the press conference from Zab today. I highly recommend watching the first 5/6 minutes at least.

The funny thing is that Garcia himself seems like a normal enough lad and having read a few interviews with him he comes across as humble enough. This then is in contrast to his old man who is one of the greatest blackguards in boxing, and a bit of a racist bastard to boot I'd say. I wish Garcia would tell him to shut up. A bit of trash talk hurts nobody but your man takes it to a whole different level and embarasses what otherwise would be a likeable enough guy.

I'd be surprised if Zab pulls this one off to be honest, the speed has gone and his chin isn't fantastic. Two things he'd need in abundance to come out on top against Garcia.

Garcia's dad is a serious A-hole!

walshb · 26-04-2013 6:27pm

Did Garcia's dad deliberately drop the N word today? If so he should be banned from the sport.

What did De La Hoya say about Judah? Zab seemed very upset with him.

Just watched the press conference there, the whole Garcia entourage come across as a pack of cretins. Would love to see him get sparked out.

Fully agree on the chin point. That's why Matthysse's such a threat. Garcia's pretty heavy handed and he depends on his counters sending guys backwards in exchanges, because his defence really isn't that good either and anybody who can sit in the pocket with him will land plenty. A guy with a great chin who doesn't fear those counters will get plenty of opportunity to tee off on him.

Zab doesn't have that chin or that courage though, and I don't think his legs are good enough for him to move in and out all night long either. He's a skilled fighter and there's always a chance he'll do something special, but it doesn't look all that likely.

As long as the ****er goes down beyond the seventh I'll be happy.

EireIceMan · 27-04-2013 8:09pm

any one know what time these are due in the ring??

Steve Bunce said 2:15 but he didn't sound too confident and I got an overall impression he was just saying that to encourage people to stay up. Gave an optimistic time for Murray and Sergio too.
