If this was a couple of years ago.....even the Bumdomir/Mayweather/Cotto Zab Judah..I would pick him to turn Khan lights out....Judah had a beautiful KO victory in his last fight.....but that won't make a difference...Khan will fight smart behind the jab early...then really give it to Judah late...
Khan will school Judah. Judah has serious talent but i don't know how anybody can have confidence in his ability to get the job done.
I agree about Judah but I don't know how you can really be that confident about Khan either. As said before, the guy's balance and composure is so bad that he can scarcely throw a right hand without falling forward into his opponent.

I haven't read any posts other than the first one. If you are looking for someone who doesn't give Zab a chance in hell, here I am. Khan will outclass the fucking shit out of Zab. It will not be close. Zab is fast enough to land a punch or two, but it will not be close. Khan will dominate and probably end it after a few rounds.
Khan is utter shit but he should win this his people wouldn't make the fight if they thought there was any danger he's a protected guy
Zab Always STARTS FAST, he's Still Got HANDSPEED, he Punches Well w/BOTH HANDS & Khan has the Punch Resistance of an ELDERLY Woman...An Upset is VERY Likely in this Instance... REED:Lok:
He (Maidana) was considered by many as the biggest and most dangerous puncher in the division, coming off a very high profile win. Khan took a SHITLOAD of stick when people argued that he wouldn't fight Maidana, then he did, and won fair and square. He also offered Bradley a career high payday to fight him which Bradley refused. Khan isn't protected at all IMO. He's chinny, robotic and as thick as mince, but he is a gutsy kid. MTF
So, it's simple really. Since every fighter is shite, if Khan doesn't fight the two good fighters in the world, he's a protected coward. That said, Khan is shite himself, so if he fights those two fighters, those guys are padding.
of course it matters "many" believe lots of things that are not true "many" believing something doesn't make it true at all
after Maidana, what is the next best win on Khan's resume? Remember, this is a guy being called the next SUPERSTAR of the sport by "many"
More importantly, who SHOULD HAVE he fought, according to cdogg, master judge of talent and relevance.
punchers... he's been in with one legit puncher since getting blasted out in one round by Prescott (Maidana, who has some power, if nothing else) and he barely survived, man... just made it, he faded like crazy after the first few rounds... Maidana's wholesale lack of sustained stamina and technique was as responsible for that as anything, a puncher with some skills would have gotten him out of there long before the final bell... Khan's people put him in that fight because they were gambling that Khan's speed would be enough to compensate for whatever slugging ability Maidana was bringing to the table... the gamble paid off, but only JUST paid off Can Judah punch? sure he can... but is he also a worn-out version of an already flawed and often underwhelming fighter? even more so Mark my words, man... Khan will be carefully maneuvered away from punchers with real technique for as long as possible ... don't forget, six fights ago this kid was fighting 76 year old Marco Antonio Barrera... he's been very carefully matched
What punchers? You just want to see him fight some random punchers for the hell of it? Just because you think they can beat him? I guess it would make total sense for Khan to take a fight with say Matthyse at this point....even though Judah is rated higher, and is more well known and will make Khan more money/generated more interest.
