Zab’s last jab at greatness
Brooklyn's Judah Looks to Return to Boxing's Elite Against Undefeated Garcia
Zab Judah was one of the 17,732 fans in attendance during Monday night’s Nets playoff game at Barclays Center.
When the in-house camera flashed the image of the former two-division, five-time world champion sitting courtside, there was a light smattering of applause as the sellout crowd seemed more concerned with the Nets’ 12-point second-half deficit than Judah’s upcoming bout with unified lightweight champion Danny Garcia.
That reaction figures to change drastically come Saturday night on the corners of Atlantic and Flatbush Avenues, when the 35-year-old Brooklyn-born and raised “Super” Judah takes what could be his last shot at re-emerging as one of the elite headline boxers in the sweet science.
