Not sure who to take on this one. Judah is a betting mans nightmare. Always hot or cold, no consistency. My gut says Judah, but I think that is because I always been a fan of the dude. He could have beat Mayweather and Cotto (and was for half of each fight). But then he beat the pants off of Spinks.

Bah who would ya'll take and why?

I think I will go with Judah on this one by split decision. Judah knows this is the end of the line for him and one more defeat means fighting on tuesday night fights. Clottey is a very slick boxer though, he was whooping Margaritos ass until he broke his hand and went on to lose a unanimous decision. I see nobody replied to this thread, maybe because it does not involve two men dry humping each other ala UFC LOL j/k [Razz]

Thats right he was putting hands on Margarito. At one point almost had him lights out. Man sucks Zab never quite lived up to his talent. He could have easy been pound for pound king.

I dont think we have many boxing fans in our midst. Somehow I just cannot get into the MMA thing. Unless its Kimbo

Did you guys watch the fight?
Felt bad for Judah, it was a bad cut but he still had alot left in em'. I thought because of the slow start he would of been done by the 8th-9th round. Instead it looked like if the fight would have continued he would of had a good chance of winning it.

mma is the way to go man you have to be a way more well rounded fighter for it but in no way am i knocking boxing cause i love that too. i feel like judah always starts off strong and then just starts slowing or something he looked so good in that mayweather fight too. i like him cause he is south paw and loves to just bang it out

Damn Zab, kinda got a bad shake in this one. Clottey looked pretty good tho. I wonder if anyone will fight him now even tho he has a belt. But damn I wanted Zab to win this one. Now Margarito and Clottey is the best fight ticket in boxing right now.

I hope not....Plus I think Oscar just inked a deal to fight pacqiauo. Which I am sure Oscar will lose. Margarito would put Oscar in the hospital I am pretty sure. There are no good fights for Oscar right now, he needs to wrap it up. Margaritos division is hella deep and with the exception of Berto all unification bouts look tasty. All the best fights I think are in this division now I think about it.

Mmmm, right now I still would rather see P Williams and Margarito again.
Yeah and Oscar vs Margarito would not be coo for Oscar. Lol, they would need to have an ambulance on standby for that one.

I really do not see oscar losing to Pacquia(sp) I feel oscar is too big and too strong to be hurt by him. That fight is an almost gauranteed win for Oscar plus it will give him huge payday. Call me crazy but I kinda think Oscar could beat Margarito.If you really stop and think about it even at this stage in his career Oscar is faster and punches harder than Margarito not to mention he is a better boxer too. The only thing is Oscar is looking for the least risk and most reward which is why he will not fight Maragrito. Had Cotto won Oscar would have fought him because it would be a HUGE payday. Oscar has never really ducked too many prople in his career. It's just all about the benjamins now LOL!

Zab's career is just about over. Zab was in a must win situation and he lost. It's time for him to be on Tuesday night fights. either that or go down to 140lbs and build up some wins against lesser opponents. 147lbs has too much talent. Clottey is not going to be in any big money fight anytime soon. He brings too much risk and not enough reward. He is still a nobody as far as name recognition.

I also think Oscar will beat Pacqiauo. Pac man is too small. Oscar will do what he can not to fight Margarito.

Yea Clottey's handlers are terrible. Even with a belt he will be ducked because he is dangerous and no plausible rewards for the fight.

DeLaHoya is a shadow of his old self. Pacquiao *sp is probably the only fighter I would say can match speed with Mayweather. I think his strength is under-estimated. And his work-pace will be double that of Oscar. I don't see Oscar knocking manny out but I do see Manny winning by unanimous decision. I don't think Oscar wants any parts of the top of his natural weight class.

Zab I think is still a fringe contender, based on the fact his fights are entertaining and he does come to fight. Not sure if he is Tuesday night yet. But he is fast approaching it.

Oscar is not quite as washed up as most people think, he would absolutely beat the dog shit out of Paquaio and do ALOT better than people think against Margarito. Margarito is not as good as people think he is. The best at 147 is Paul Williams.
