Injury postpones Judah-Mosley fight

The fight between Sugar Shane Mosley and Zab Judah has had to be called off due to an injury that the latter picked up.

The bout was all set to take place in the Mandalay Bay Event Center in Las Vegas at the end of this month, but will now have be rescheduled.

Judah, who has 25 career knock-outs, injured his arm in a fall and needed fifty stitches to patch up a deep wound that opened up on his forearm.

"It is very unfortunate that Zab suffered this injury and that this great event had to be canceled," said Richard Schaefer, who is CEO for Golden Boy Promotions.

"We are already in discussions with all parties involved to attempt to reschedule the fight for the near future."

Mosley was itching for this fight as he had settled with it being a non-title battle after he failed to tempt Miguel Cotto into a rematch.

Setanta readers' comment of the day

“This is terrible news and I am sure all of the sporting world and not just that of golf wishes Seve a speedy recovery. He is a man of great dignity and should be allowed to recuperate away from the media spotlight but we all must hope he pulls round from this.”
