The scheduled May 31 fight between Shane Mosley and Zab Judah has been canceled
due to an arm injury suffered by Judah during his Las Vegas training camp it
was announced by Golden Boy Promotions today.
The HBO Pay-Per-View event was scheduled to take
place at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.
Judah suffered multiple severe lacerations on his
right forearm and received 50 stitches to close the wounds suffered in an
accidental fall. As a result, Judah will be unable to train for four weeks and
was forced to withdraw from the bout.
"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."
