Danny Garcia vs Zab Judah - Post-Fight Report

Danny Garcia Vs Zab Judah - Fight Preview

By Jack Price @PriceyJ97.

This Saturday night at the Barclays Center in Booklyn, Danny ‘Swift’ Garcia defends his WBA & WBC light-welterweight titles against ‘Super’ Zab Judah. This fight was originally scheduled to take place on February 9^th but was postponed after Garcia withdrew with a rib injury. There has been some real bad blood between these two men and their teams and they will finally be able to do their talking in the ring on Saturday night after months of near-brawls and trash-talking.

Garcia (25-0, 16 KO’s) had a fantastic 2012 becoming unified world champion at 140lb and scoring three impressive victories. In March of last year he picked up the WBC belt with a unanimous decision victory over ring legend Erik Morales. At this point he became a contender to look out for, but he didn’t really become a mainstream superstar until he took on then-WBA champ Amir Khan on July 14^th. The 25-year old scored one of the most devastating KO victories of the year, blasting out Khan in just 4 rounds and proving that he belongs at the very highest level. The Philadelphian then finished off the year with a rematch against Morales, winning via KO in the 4^th round this time around.

Will Garcia step up?

The champ, Danny 'Swift' Garcia.

Zab Judah steps into the ring on Saturday the 27th of April at the Barclays Center in New York possibly for a final time. He will be attempting to reclaim the glory days which saw him win 5 world titles at 2 different weights and become undisputed welterweight champion.

Is Zab's time finally up?

His opponent is considered by many to be the top in the division although I disagree, he is the current WBC,WBA  and Ring light welterweight Champion with an undefeated record of 25-0 (16 Kos)  to his name which on paper shows he has power an Zab should be worried. This is a tough Ask for Judah in my opinion who surely will enter as underdog against a younger stronger opponent who is very comfortable and naturally big at the weight. A win propels Judah back into the mix and potential super fights with Peterson also a Kahn and Matthyse rematches.

Garcia however is on the way up and professes to many he is destined for stardom and the P4P No.1 spot and maintains nothing will stop him reaching his goals. Many critics including myself on the other hand are unsure how good this kid is, is he protected? 

Danny Garcia says he'll fight anyone! Talks Rios, Judah, Khan.

Unified light-welterweight champion Danny Garcia believes that he has at least a few more fights left in him at light-welterweight. In this video he talks about "rival" Brandon Rios and next opponent Zab Judah (February 9th). 

Marquez Vs Judah likely for July 14th...

Zab Judah.

According to reports, talks are under way between the camp of Mexican ring legend Juan Manuel Marquez and former welterweight ruler Zab Judah. Marquez is booked in for a fight at the Cowboys Stadium in Texas for July 14th and somebody needs to take the place of original opponent Brandon Rios after his poor performance against Richard Abril last month.

Judah has recently regained momentum in his career by stopping Vernon Paris in the 9th round of their IBF title eliminator. His career took a major blow when he was stopped by Amir Khan back in 2011. He is now looking to the prove to the world and himself that he still has what it takes to share the ring with one of the best fighters in the world.

"It's a fight I have campaigned for," said Judah. "This is a fight I wanted a couple of years ago and I still want it. I want him. He fought Floyd Mayweather and never touched him, and he got dropped. I can do that too."

Marquez cruised to victory against Fedchenko.

Marquez's last fight was against Serhiy Fedchenko. The 39-year old Mexican looked very classy and picked up the WBO interim light-welterweight title. He has admitted that his main focus is a fourth fight with nemesis Manny Pacquiao which he hopes can be made for the end of this year. But, he needs a challenge in his next fight so that he can keep in-shape and keep ticking over.

Judah's promoter Kathy Duva also commented on the situation: "I've been having discussions with Bob (Arum) for the past 24 hours. But the deal is not done. Obviously we'd love to do it. I think it's a saleable fight, a terrific fight. These guys are both big names, so we would love do it and it's not a complicated deal to make. He (Judah) really wants the fight but Bob hasn't made us an offer yet... Bob knows that Zab is available, so we are talking about it.

Bob Arum is set to make an announcement this afternoon regarding Marquez's next opponent. The original opponent being talked about was British light-welterweight Paul McCloskey but after his shock stoppage loss to Demarcus Corley at the weekend it doesn't like that he will be the man sharing the ring with Marquez on July 14th.

Judah targets Khan rematch!

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.
