    Not so sure about that when you consider that Judah was the last welterweight champion to hold all major world championship belts. He achieved this greatness after the Tszyu fight.
    Well after prison Tyson won a WBC title. He lost to every top quality fighter he faced after prison, (Tyson, Lewis) and a couple of journeymen(Williams, Mcbride).

    After Tszyu, Judah lost to all top quality fighters he faced(Mayweather, Cotto) and a couple of journeymen(Baldomir, Spinks). There are similiarities there.

    Difference is before prison Tyson achieved a lot more then Judah did before Tszyu.


    "Pre prison," Tyson was an all time great. I'll never argue that. But Judah's career isn't over yet which is why I said that Judah is not as good as "Before prison," YET.



    He'll beat Clottey and likely fight the loser of the Margarito vs. Cotto fight. After he wins that fight (it will be against Margarito) he will rematch Cotto. Zab can beat Cotto as long as he doesn't get all stupid again and try to stand there and trade shots with him.

    I like your positive thinking. Have some rep.
