Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2019-06-07, pretty good finish between Zab Judah and Cletus Seldin but it is not enough to get three stars: it gets two.The former world champion in two different weight classes Zab Judah entered this fight with a professional boxing record of 44-9-0 (30 knockouts) but he is not ranked as he hasn’t fought since January 27, 2018 when he defeated Noel Mejia Rincon. Before this bout, since 2013, he had fought just three times losing to Danny Garcia (Danny Garcia vs Zab Judah) and Paul Malignaggi (Zab Judah vs Paul Malignaggi), but then he won over Jorge Luis Munguia in 2017.
His opponent, Cletus Seldin, has an official record of 23-1-0 (19 KOs=83%) and he entered as the No.59 welterweight in the world. He suffered his only loss when he faced Yves Ulysse Jr in 2017 (Cletus Seldin vs Yves Ulysse Jr), but then he has won over Nelson Lara and Adam Mate. Judah vs Seldin is valid for the vacant NABA super lightweight title. Watch the video and rate this fight!

Sum up this fight:
Go back to 1938 and watch Henry Armstrong vs. Barney Ross and you’ll see Cletus Seldin’s influences. Armstrong is not a bad role model. Check this out, folks; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqoRw3ctsQk Seldin smothered Zab Judah. Judah is still a master boxer, even at 41, but Seldin has worked out the problems that hurt him in the Yves Ulyessey fight. Cut off right, don’t follow the guy. Stay at angles, pull back, fight angle with angle. Then, relentless, body punching.
