Huge Disappointment

It's been about 5 years that Bill, Mike and I have been following the career of a brash, young, black, Jewish boxer out of Brooklyn, Zab Judah. We saw him get the crap knocked out of him by Kostya Tszyu and then attack the referee for stopping the fight. Now he lost to some guy named Carlos Baldomir in a unanimous decision. Judah of course thinks he deserved to win, but this loss will cost him a scheduled fight against Floyd Mayweather. Nothing worse than wasted talent.

You had to use the imfamous "There's nothing like wasted talent" phrase, didnt you?

It is hard for fighters to get "up" for 2nd rate fighters when they want to be on ppv. This happens all the time. Winky Wright almost lost to some guy that just started boxing 5 years ago. Zab will have to get back to training and win another 3 fights before he gets that payday again. I am sure the promoters are furious.
