zab stops Cory

Hatton sold tickets, and Witter didn't. Warren went with the more bankable fighter. It doesn't follow that Hatton would have beaten Judah at all. Hatton has a completely different style to Witter. Norton beat Ali, Ali beat Foreman, what happened to Norton against Foreman? answer, he got annihilated.

It'd be a great rematch if Tszyu and Zab met again. I'd have my cash on Judah to get it right second time round.
In the first round they looked like they were in different time zones, plus don't forget Judah shook Tszyu to his boots at one point.

I think this time he'd be a bit more careful about backing up with his hands down. Zab KO 5.

boxing rule number one

dont back up in a straight line... especially with someone with a great right hand ie Rahman V Lewis, Judah v Tszyu

much as i love Kosta, i reckon he would have his work cut out in a rematch........

Exactly, it was a real novice level mistake he made first time round. It was almost like, he'd had it so easy in the first round, he thought he could get away with just about anything after that.

Big mistake obviously, and not one I think he'd make again.

Interesting to read Mosley picked Zab in the Spinks rematch, saying he thought Zab had finally grown up.

I've never been a Zab fan, but you have to hand it to him - he's got himself together, and brought some much needed PIZZAZZ @ 147.

Of course the other possibility is that Zab starts more cautiously, and Tszyu capitalises on his caution by punishing him, and it turns into a late rounds barnburner.

I don't think zab can nuke tszyu, I think tszyu's timing is too good, but fornicate me, what a great fight that would be, and it has to be said, spinks, good as he may be was fornicating boring, and the welterweight division needs some marquee names. Who was going to be interested in seeing Mosley get outboxed by spinks?

Zab v tszyu, winner v winner gets DLH. Maybe in the meantime, Mosley v Margarito, should Margarito win of course.

Judah's purse for Saturday's bout was $100,000, while Spinks pocketed $1.2 million.

Well, i have't seen judah/spinks II yet, but I still can't see judah taking tzysu's best punches the second time around, it just doesn't seem feasible that a guy who was turned into a string puppet by one right hand could possibly stand up to what could be a whole night of them.

And i stand by what i said about him having no chin....never said he didnt have a punch mind you......Overated and stopped by the next guy who can punch for sure...and Spinks dont come under that there banner im afraid...

Judah has no chin? Why? Because he got sparked by Tszyu? Does Mitchell have no chin?

Judah has underated chin. He took lots of punches CLEAN from Spink (a welterweight) and he has taken punches before.

Watch the Spinks fight.

Bergman,Millet.Kostya,Spinks....

Spinks just aint a puncher...but still floored the china chinned mouthy lightbulb head..oh yes thats his head not a lightbulb...seperated at birth Judah and Rob Earnshaw.

And Sharmba Mitchell walked(sort of shuffled in a shot sort of way)..into a peach of a hook againts the hardest hitter in the division...never good.

Oh yes Hatton is scared of Zab....and Kotsya...and Witter, and the bogeyman...maybe he`s scared of the dark aswell.

Do Witter a favour and climb off his cock.

Exactly. I don't get it either. Zab will never have a good enough chin to live with a decent pucher, plus, he tends to be a fairly cautious boxer himself, so he's hardly going to come out and try to blast fighters like Tszyu.

Don't get me wrong, Judah can fight, but he'll always get beaten by the real top level fighters. He's been proved too vulnerable, too often. He'd have a puncher's chance should there be a rematch, but that's all he'd have.
