Amir Khan vs. Zab Judah fight thread - for July 23rd

What's that belt Khan has on his shoulder, it looks like the Ring belt but that fight can't possibly be for that?

Aha! It would appear to be the WBA Super belt, I didn't know it looked like that!?

I suppose they had to tart the pointless trinket up a little.

Guys, I haven't read this thread, but what is the consensus on the winning punch? I don't care where his belt was, that punch clearly hit him on the stomach - great refereeing!!

I don't believe the punch touched one of Zab's tiny little gonads, it landed on his right side and caught mostly stomach, hip, abdomen, but no cojones.
No controversy at all, Zab was looking for a way out, like he does when things aren't going his way, and he quit like the little bitch/douche he is, plain and simple.

Khan, dominated every round, did what he needed to do in this fight, and won fair and square, good job by him.

Agreed. I've been critical of Khan - well mainly of his defense and chin, but he is winning me over. His hand speed is awesome and he is starting to correct all his weaknesses. If his chin holds up, now he is moving up weights and is more comfortable it could be very interesting to see what he achieves.

some gentlemen are quite sensitive round that area of stomach, cojones getting tickled or not.

[THE THIRD MAN]

Judah was never in the fight, he lost every round and lost them badly. The punch from Khan was legitimate, it was on the belt line and cup, i'm wondering why it hurt Zab so much at all? No way it got his balls! (Khan is no Hatton) Judah was looking for a way out of this fight and a reason for it. His performance was sub par and Whitaker's message just didn't get across to the mentally challenged Zab Judah. " Get down low and come up to the body" Whitaker yelled at him, you could've told Zab that the world really is round and he wouldn't believe you. Khan was impressive, but in reality Judah was well below world class in this fight. He's done.

Man, that fight was tough to watch. The damage Khan's punches inflicted to Zab's pride and mentality was devastating. When Amir started landing his triple jab combination with no answer, that's when I realized the true nature of this fight. No competition at all. Unfortunately, I think Zab is too old of a dog to learn any new tricks from Pernell. Maybe they just need some more time to adjust to each other (imo, Zab doesn't need a more versatile Pernell left, he needs a tougher Pernell mind) If his glass heart is still resilient enough to pick up the pieces, I'd like to see him fight again. Dude deserves to go out with some dignity.

As for Khan, he definitely showed why he is in the top tier and is improving physically and mentally(someone could have passed him a pipe, he was so calm in that corner). Still want to see him get tested against the prime fighter in Bradley; only then will we know if Khan is a champion or a reigning king of the division.
