According to ESPN, if Juan Manuel Marquez renews his contract with Golden Boy, he will most likely be fighting Zab Judah next. What do you guys think?

It's a dangerous fight for him. You never know which Zab Judah is going to show up 'Super' Zab or the "Well he has a lot of potential" Zab. Zab still has fast hands and good power, it will be interesting if it comes off.
I don't believe there is any more super Zab left. I believe there is a very good junior welterweight Zab that can hang with the bottom half of the top ten in the division. The fight against Matthyse was close and could probably have gone either way. Zab may even be a tad bit overrated right now.
I also believe that Marquez is a little overrated too at these higher weight classes. He beat Kastidis and Diaz at 135. He hasn't faced the real champs in the division. He's top ten p4p because he's a great champion of our time and he has climbed the weight classes, but he has done all that much at 135. With that said, he deserves a Zab Judah fight, which I believe he wins, and makes good change doing so.
Judah could be dangerous since he is really fast , but Marquez has shown a great chin and even if he goes down, he always gets up. I have a feeling Marquez would outwork, and ko Judah with a counter in the later rounds. Judah does not throw enough to outpoint JMM
I think Marquez will probably take his customary trip to the canvas early. If he gets up.... It's over... Zab's done. News Zab, Old Zab, Super Zab, Whatever Zab... Still seems to have focus problems and lose his fire as soon as he realizes things aren't going to be as easy as they sounded when he was talking the talk.
As an early Zab fan.. it feels like I was waiting forever for this kid to get his crap together and apply himself....
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

I think JMM wins a decision, this should be a good fight if it happens.
how's zab keep getting these fights got a semi gift against matthyse, unless marquez gets old which is bound to happen soon he finishes zab in the distance.
If Marquez can't beat the shit out of Judah he should have a press conference and apologize to every fan of boxing individually for. A drinking his own pee and letting someone tape it and b ever saying pac's name an crying about those two fights like he's the first person to get jacked in a decision
I dunno. I just don't like JMM anywhere north of 135Judah does have a frail look about him at 140 though... Looks like an AIDS victim or something

...That's the same way I feel and Judah has more powe than Floyd IMO, granted it's only in the left hand and sometimes he waits too damn long to throw it, but the point is it's there. Not that Judah would or could spark out JMM, just that he COULD fend him off with that power
