that should be judah's first fight since his loss to Josh Clottey
judah actually beat chop chop some 5 years ago
Hard to believe two judges gave two rounds to Johnson. He did basically nothing the whole fight.
did he try to win or just survive?
I guess he tried to win. He just had no answers for anything Zab did.
judah has always been, at least in spurts, one of the most talented fighters of the past 5-10 years
