Amir Khan vs Zab Judah: Live Blog and Post Fight Analysis from Mandalay Bay

Hey this is Justin David Tate, your source for all things relating to the biggest fight of the year so far: Amir Khan vs Zab Judah.

I shall conduct round-by-round analysis live from the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas where the fight will take place.

This bout is the ultimate make-or-break fight of the year.

Khan (25-1, 17 KOs) is a 24-year-old world champion at junior welterweight (140 lbs.) with starry-eyed dreams of moving up to welterweight (147 lbs.) to face Mayweather.

Judah (41-6, 28 KOs) is a 33-year-old veteran who's won titles at welterweight and junior welterweight and now wants to give boxing his best while he still has his abilities in tact.

Tonight's match will be for Judah's IBF junior welterweight title and Khan's WBA junior welterweight title.

Judah was mentioned earlier in the year as a potential opponent for pound-for-pound superstar Manny Pacquiao (53-3-2, 38 KOs) in 2012.

A victory over Khan makes that a closer possibility.

Undefeated boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather (41-0, 25 KOs) has made statements that a fight between him and Khan is possible for late 2012.

A victory over Judah (who Mayweather has also beaten) will help pave the way for the fight to happen.

A loss for either man dashes their hopes of a super fight with either of the two biggest attractions in boxing.

The fight should begin around 10:00 p.m. ET/7:00 p.m. PT. I'll keep you posted on the Vegas atmosphere, the undercard and of course, our incredible main event.
