Boxing Result: Mayweather Pulls Away From Judah To Take IBF Welter Crown!By Curtis McCormick April 9th, 2006 All Boxing ResultsFull Ringside Report To Follow! The all out war that many envisioned would take place between Zab Judah and Floyd Mayweather never quite happened last night at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas. In what had been a close fight as late as the middle rounds became more and more one sided with Mayweather becoming defensively accustomed to Judah's southpaw style, shutting the Brooklyn based champion down. Only a low blow by Judah, followed by a right to the back of the head in the tenth round stemmed the incoming tide as Mayweather was clearly hurt, prompting his trainer and uncle Roger Mayweather to jump into the ring in protest. A near riot was touched off as the cornermen of both sides, as well as ringside officials. flooded the ring. Once order was regained, the action started up again and Mayweather largely continued his dominance through the twelfth and final round, winning a unanimous decision on all scorecards. Early on Judah had found success, tagging Mayweather with surprising ease with hard left hands and even appeared to rock the challenger on one occasion. But by the fourth, the previously unbeaten Mayweather began to find his own range, discouraging the champion with sharp shots to the head and body. While Judah had sporadic success in most of the remaining rounds, he never again fought with the confidence or effectiveness of the early stages and was bloodied from the punishment handed by his accurate adversary. The fracas in the tenth round may yet hold sway over the final outcome of the bout as a cornerman's entry into the ring while a fight is still taking place is normally grounds for instant disqualification, a point that was brought up by Judah's promoter Don King in post fight interviews. While King intends to press his claims that Mayweather should have been instantly disqualified, the Nevada Athletic Commission has suspended the purses of both fighters pending further investigation of the situation.
