Judah says Khan v Judah is nearly a done deal

[Kev]

I've only just watched the Maidana fight. I don't think I have ever seen quicker hand speed than Khan! Also, I was majorly impresseed with his chin, he took some ferocious shots froma huge puncher! I still have my doubts about him though Zab is a dangerous fight for which Khan probably won't get much credit. i.e If he wins, people just say Judah was washed up and had lost 6 times before.

I don't think that should (or wish that it wouldn't) matter a great deal.
Judah is way more experienced at world level and has fought with better opposition level than Kotelnik, Maidana and Malignaggi. So it's still a step up in competition albeit slightly askew.

Also, progress is never completely lineal. Even in the most promising of prospects.
Progress that is staggered is still progress all the same.

(Is it crazy that I still regard Khan as a prospect )

Not really mate, check around the forums, there are many who still think Manny Pacquaio is unproven at the highest level.

Ha! Really?

Well I don't know about that. I just feel that although Khan has won a title or two, his career is still on an ascension that precedes the assumed elite level.

I dunno, he's still a kid

Interesting fight. Judah has the tools to stop anyone at 140 but he simply doesn't throw enough punches. Judah just postures too much and his jab is sh!t now. He's clearly a stepping stone and not a real contender anymore. Should be competitive for a couple rounds though until Khan stops him around 9 or 10. Khan seems very nervous in the ring though, anxiety's effect of his stamina will be his undoing once he steps up to the elite level.

i see this as an easy victory (points wise) for khan. i just think he's in his physical prime, and zab isn't what he used to be. khan UD12 117-111.

Khan by mid-round KO.

Did anyone see Judah in his last fight?

This fight is ok as Khan is getting back in the ring and wants a fight in the uk, but lets be real Judah is not the fighter he was and I fancy Khan to finish him similar to the Paulie fight.

I'm not high on khan but i see him beating judah. Hell i see almost any fighter beating judah cause he usually just beats himself.

This looks a better match up on paper than it probably is in reality. Sure Zab has power and could KO Khan but how long has it been sinc Zab looked good? 5 years? More? I think Zab has about a 5% chance of KOing Khan early and if he doesnt Amir boxes him to an easy UD.

The old Zab would absolutely crush Khan.

It's a shame.

Maybe Zab will go all out for this one and we'll see a bit of what he once was.

Anyone knows the proposed date?

Not sure mate but the word on the street is now Peterson, personally I don't wanna see that fight.
