Moments ago, WBA jr. welterweight champion Amir Khan easily added the IBF title to his trophy case, dominating former champion Zab Judah over the course of 5 rounds before landing a devastating body shot that quickly brought an end to the action. Although Judah would try to complain that it was a low blow, the shot appeared to land right on the belt line. Ultimately though, it looked like it wouldn't have mattered as Khan was easily dominating the action against a tentative and far too defensive Judah.
