It is crazy how it seems a theme for these very talented guys who were seen as lacking grit or determination at their peak, to start facing the big risks and taking their licks only once they are physically shot. Judah really impressed me years ago with his efforts against Matthyse and Garcia, showed exactly the kind of stuff people thought he didnt have in his day. Roy Jones was another one, when he was a freak and atop the sport he fought a bunch of clowns, then well after hes finished takes fights like Lebedev in Russia etc. Just goes to show how hard it must be for these guys to accept its over.
Well said. Sounds like Judah dodged a bullet and surely his final fight.
