how the fuck he fall in the shower? That shit just don't happen to humans under the age of 65. He probably did something stupid at the club or something .

Well, hopefully they reschedule this for a later date because it's a really good match up and would most def be exciting to watch.

I guess it all depends on how long it will take for Judah's injury to heal and whether or not Mosley is willing to wait.

I'd love for someone to take Judah's spot, like Clottey for example but I'm sure its too short of a notice.

Golden Boy Promotions has announced that the May 31 fight between Shane Mosley and Zab Judah, canceled due to an arm injury suffered by Judah during his Las Vegas training camp, will be rescheduled to a later date. The Pay-Per-View event was scheduled to take place at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas

Golden Boy says that Judah suffered multiple severe lacerations on his right forearm and received 50 stitches to close the wounds suffered during an accidental fall. Doctors told Judah to stay away from training for four weeks.

"It is very unfortunate that Zab suffered this injury and that this great event had to be canceled," said Richard Schaefer, CEO of Golden Boy Promotions. "We are already in discussions with all parties involved to attempt to reschedule the fight for the near future."

That's weird man. I mean accidents do happen I guess we should wait until we hear more. Remember what happened to the Broncos receiver right?

Great, more news......


Judah Camp: Mosley Doesn't Want To Reschedule


Jin Mosley

Moments ago Zab Judah and his managers informed ********** that Shane Mosley and Golden Boy Promotions are unwilling to negotiate a new date for a fight with Judah, even though the fight could have been rescehduled for as early as two weeks later than the original May 31, 2008 date. Judah's manager, Dave Richardson, told **********, "HBO would have found a date to put it on regular HBO and we told them we could be ready two weeks, but when Richard (Schaefer) got Jin on the phone she said, 'absolutely not.' There isn't a fight we want more than Shane Mosley, so we're disappointed by her remarks. Shane didn't turn it down, his wife did. I don't know what it is, when a man can't make a decision in his own life. I know I got the last word in my household," concluded Richardson.

MOSLEY-MAYORGA COMING SOON?
By G. Leon

If in fact Shane Mosley does not reschedule his canceled pay-per-view fight against Zab Judah, don't be surprised if Mosley looks to make a fight with Ricardo Mayorga, seemingly the only other viable name option available to him. The Mosley-Mayorga fight was originally supposed to take place in early 2004, but Cory Spinks' upset victory over Mayorga in December 2003 foiled those plans.

that fuckin bitch Jin Mosley completely runs Shane's life. I mean, all his kids have asian names, he wears the Korean flag on his trunks (even though she's a Korean american born in New York) and from what everyone says in the business she is a complete bitch.

A 2 week postponement wouldn't be that bad.

Yeah I think it's a bad move, Judah vs Mosley would have generated at least 300,000 PPV buys according to my educated guess.

So what is mosley going to do? If he's lucky he can fight on the same date, May 31st against some chump that is desperite enough to take a fight on short notice. But then it wouldn't be PPV worthy.

If he's really lucky he could land Mayorga for the same date. Is Mayorga in fighting shape? Can he make weight? Is he crazy enough to try? Even if Mayorga was a possibility, would it sell as well as Judah? I don't think so, especially with so little time to promote the fight, make new posters, commercials, etc.

So most likely he'll have to sign a contract to a later date. Like in mid to late June at the very earliest. Which defeats the fuckin purpose since Judah would be ready by then!!

Stupidity at its finest.

I dont know if Mayorga is in fighting shape but I dont see him turning down a fight with Mosley. He would attempt it for the money.

Mayorga is cool and entertaining to watch but as the fight goes on he wears down and leaves himself wide open for counter-shots too much.
