The Brooklyn native has an outstanding 11-8 (9 КО) record in world title fights.
Зараз, хоча, his past is in the rearview mirror and Judah’s on a mission to capture his sixth world title. That’s what drives the 38-year-old originally from Brooklyn. “I’m very happy to be headlining the first show of the ‘Knockout Night at the D’ серія,” Judah said. “I’m always comfortable and happy in the squared ring. I enjoy the sport of boxing and have one more goalto be six-time world champion of the world!”
Due to a variety of reasons, Judah has been out of action for two years, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he hasn’t been ready to rock in the ring. “Я дуже радий, що повернувся на ринг,” Judah remarked. “I helped Флойд (Мейвезер) get ready for (Менні)Пакьяо and last May came out of that camp in great shape.
