Zab Judah is hoping to land a rematch with former world champion Amir
Khan if he wins back his light-welterweight titles against Lamont
Peterson in May.
Judah stopped his opponent Vernon Paris last saturday in an IBF title
eliminator which is believed to have put his career back on track.
After the impressive win he now wants revenge against Amir Khan who
stopped himlast year, but that is only if he regains his titles. If not
he will chose to fight Lamont Peterson even though the two are good
friends.
"If Khan beats Peterson, I would hope I get my due respect," Judah told
ESPN. "That rematch, if it should present itself, this time the real
Zab Judah will show up... I'll be looking to get in there and be very
dominant... If he should beat Amir Khan, Lamont is a great friend of
mine. [But] If that should be the case, we'll go in there and do what
we've got to do."
Although many people would like to see the rematch, Judah will likely
not get his wish as the fans and Khan himself are calling for a much
bigger fight between Amir Khan and Floyd Mayweather. This fight looks
more probable as Khan has repeatedly talked about his ambition to move
up to welterweight.
Another fight at welterweight that would not only interest Khan a
little more but would have the fans going crazy is a bout with Kell
Brook.
Khan and Brook have repeatedly bad-mouthed each other publicly so the
chances of a fight happening between the two are very big.
