Judah will have too much power for Khan
May 31st, 2011
By Scott Gilfoid: WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan (25-1, 17 KO’s) really stepped in it this time by choosing IBF light welterweight champion Zab Judah (41-6, 28 KO’s) to fight on July 23 instead of one of the weak guys that Khan has been mostly fighting since being starched in the 1st round by Breidis Prescott three years ago.
But once Khan’s skinny legs get tired, Judah is going to drop the boom on him by tagging him with one of his monstrous uppercuts and knock Khan clean out. I see Khan as a British version of Jose Armando Santa Cruz, a fighter that fought Judah last year in July and was doing okay for a while throwing a pesky jab and landing combinations from time to time until Judah connected with a big upper cut that put Santa Cruz on the canvas for the rest of the fight.
This is what’s going to happen to Khan. He’ll move around for a while and maybe even look good for two or three rounds, but as soon as Judah catches him with his uppercut or one of his power shots, it’s all over for Khan. They’ll likely be stretchering Khan out of the ring at that point.
Judah is too quick, too powerful and too damn good for Khan to beat. It’s going to be kind of sad to see the Khan hype end with a knockout, but it was bound to happen sooner or later. It’s just good that a fighter with a name will be the one to knock Khan out rather than some unknown guy that he’s dug up to fight.

judah is a dudah!
Michael129 said it all. Khan has never knocked out anyone of any
substance whatsoever, so what makes anyone believe that Khan can knockout Zab Judah. Zab has recently beaten some very young, and very good fighters, lets hope that Zab can continue to the same.
hahahahahahaha this is jokes, gilfoid has just jinxed the sh#t out of judah. i fancied his chances of knocking out khan but now gilfoid has put the touch of death on judah. im putting my house on khan
i think the age will dictate the outcome of this fight. 1986 vs 1977? 34 years old is already old for 140 lbs division. there are more and more young and promising fighter in this division waiting to be tapped.
Khan hasn’t KO’d anyone worth mentioning, with a solid punch- most of his stoppages have been bein TKO to fighter with no resume… So I’m not sure how people are getting the impression that Khan will knock out Judah
@ Nomad
With a straight left to the jaw how! LOL
Ok that settles it for me, Scott is tipping Judah… lets all lump on Khan for an early KO Lol
Juda had hit micky ward below the belt back in the day to make sure he beat him. Sow how is he going to beat khan?
Come on DawG, Y u gotta Jinx Judah too >:O F** Scott G.
@Al-murry
Explain more Al ? Why do you think im a retard? do you disagree with my views on the fight ?
If so thats fine, but lets watch the outcome of the fight first before you jump to conclusions about me being wrong.
not many articles from gilfoid today. i wonder whats up?

No, my Brit friend, I’m just about to get started. I’ve got a book I want to write on the Khan-Judah fight, so get out of my way and continue with your tea.
Gilfoid is talking rubbish…Khan will beat Judah on points or may even KO him late…
Judah is the weakest of the bunch! Khan ko in under 5 rounds. Too fast.Too explosive.TOO STRONG!!
judah to beat khan in 5
Wow! are you serious? Judah has no stamina he is only strong for like four rounds. Khan will pick him apart with constant jabs and combinations it will be too much for Judah and he will finally retire.
judah is a name, and little else. Easy fight for khan, will add nothing to his “legacy”.
Judah cannot beat khan
This fight is pretty interesting. but i see Khan winning a 12 round decision. Judah is not gonna come out and put the pressure on like a Maidana, it’s just not his style. Once they get in the ring you will see a big size difference favoring Khan and he will use his jab quite a bit in this fight to set up his punches. He may even get a late stoppage cause Zab is no stranger to giving up in fights he is losing.
@ Rel
You are such a friggin retard!
well gilfoid you have done it again, another useless article just for the fun of getting abuse off us brits you sad pathetic virgin. khan will win as zab is washed up and past his prime. put your money on khan to win folks as gilfoid has picked him to lose.
Remember Jab’s chin is good but not solid. They both weaken badly as the fight goes on. I see two guys dishing it out early and if one doen’s get the other out of there could be a boring clutch fest in the late rounds!
Judah has a lot of power at 140. Maybe not as much at welterweight
Ps: A person does not need alot of power to knock out Khan. No one does. An average puncher can stumble him. Expect a really tough night. Judah is a seasoned pro with excellent accuracy, he will land alot.
JUDAH A POWER PUNCHER???
ZAB IS OLD PAST HIS PRIME KHAN BY UD OR LATE TKO
JUdah is well capable is taking this be late KO between the 8th and 12rounds. Judah has cut issues and i can well see this stopping it. Khan wont knock him out so hes in for a long night. Khan loses stamina in the latter rounds due to such a high work rate in the earlies. He STILL hasnt learned to pace himself correctly in the first 6 rounds.
If he is clever he will do what he did against Kotelnik and Maidana and stay as far away from the fighter as possible, only to pop in every now and then to land a jab and a short flurry. It wont be easy. Judah is excellent on the inside and he will be in Khans face all night.
this isnt fighting UK bums anymore Amir. Your in with the big boys now, and so far, stateside at least, you havent sold the fans on your credentials to mix it with the best.
Khan may well take this by controversial UD but its only a matter of time before he gets found out.
taking the above into account it makes alot of sense that he is talking about retiring at 28.if that doesnt tell you he knows the game is up then nothing will.
My prediction: Judah by KO late.
Since when Judah has power??
as much as i can’t stand khan and all the bs he brings to boxing, this article is bull. Judah is washed up
At least we can all agree the writer of this article is a Battyboy
@will r u on acid or another form of drug!!
Scott, I’m a big fan of your articles, I’d love to know your take/prediction on the (what could be tight) fight between Chavez Jr and Zibik this weekend, please write an article!
Zab is better defensively, we saw in his fight against Mabuza.
He is working with Whitaker, and I do not think he will get tired in the second half of the fight.
I predict he beat Khan in three rounds. with a big uppercut.
Zab is better and will win on 23 July.
new WBA and IBF JWW champion.
@ Scott,
You should write for WWE
Judah is no salita nor is he breidis prescott but i think it will be a pretty close fight
im not a fan of khan but just because he got knocked out by presscott doesnt mean he doesnt have a chin .he took one hell of a beating off maidana and went through it. i think he has got stronger at light welter than he possibly could at lightweight
can anyone plz tell me ,do they earn more when they write hatred column againt amir khan?they keep doing this :S
Scott you should write articles about another sport or maybe womens fashion. You know sweet F”%& all about boxing
amir khan is gonna win,he’s to fast and powerful 4 judah
Amir khan will make zab do the moon walk ,amir khan is going to make zab judah lick the floor
Who wants to make some money? Here is the foolproof plan, Scotty says Khan is going to lose, bet ALL your money on Khan! Trust me, whoever Scotty predicts to win, bet on the other guy, never fails, he is my own little idiot savant ( minus the savant bit! ).
Judah will lose against Khan and move up to his more natural welterweight division after this loss.
The reason Judah is at 140 right now is because he wants to “tune-up” before entering the WW division again.
Khan is in the thick of his prime and sparring with Manny will help him to easily defeat Zab, whose power is overrated especially by this writer.
after systematically dismantlement of Judah physically and mentally, Khan may get a late KO or a wide UD. This fight is about an older fighter with avg power who tanks out after middle rounds VS a young and super fast powerful fighter who can schoool judah all night long.
LOL @vitali. cant imagine this bum put his money on Salita against Khan. he is the equivalent of bernie madoff in the world of boxing bettings LOL.
u’ll eat your words..
u’ll eat your words,.. pakyu
judah loses steam around 4/5 rounds. it would be no problem for hard punching and fast boxing Khan to KO judah in later rounds. once judah gets slow in later rounds, it will be like a sparring session for khan against a newbie at WCG!
‘Will’ is a big word, ‘could’ is better
hahhahaha this is the guy who predicted that Salita is going to beat Khan. you are no expert, you going to eat your words once again.
