GL: We're just days away from the biggest fight of your life. How are you feeling Superman? "I feel great. Right now this is my time and it's like I said from the start, on June 9 Cotto gets massacred and I'm going to be on the float the next day in the parade."
GL: How have you dealt with everyone questioning your focus?
Zab Judah: "I'm saying, people are going to say what they want, but some times I get bored in there so they might be right you know what I'm saying? But right now my back is against the wall and on some real shit, I ain't never been this focused on a fight. But you'll see on Saturday night.
GL: What will we see on Saturday night?
Zab Judah: "You're going to see Zab Judah at his best and I'm coming to take what's mine. I was the undisputed welterweight champion of the world and I'm going to round up my belts starting with Cotto."
GL: People always talk about your vaunted left hand, but how imoportant will your right hook be on Saturday night?
Zab Judah: "Stop it. You know I'm coming in there throwing nothing but lefts. (laughs) Real talk, let's put it like this if you think Chop-Chop had him dancing with the stars watch what I do to him."
GL: Is there any way this fight goes the distance?
ZJ: "Nope."
GL: Early night?
ZJ: "It could be, I know I'm coming in with my A-game so it's all about what he brings to the table you know what I'm saying? I'm faster...I'm stronger and he can't match my skills and on Saturday night you'll see, I promise you that."
GL: Although you're from Brooklyn, do you feel there is more pressure on Cotto?
ZJ: "There's pressure on both of us, but I don't focus on nothing that has to do with Miguel Cotto except him laying on his face or back with a referee counting to ten of waving it off, you feel me."
GL: Is there anything you'd like to say in closing?
ZJ: "It's time to take what's mine. The comeback kid is back and on Saturday night you're going to see the best of Zab Judah so if you ain't making it to Madison Square Garden check me out on PPV."
