Tonight at 11:15pm EDT (after Pacquiao-Margarito 24/7), HBO Boxing After Dark presents a double-header from the Prudential Center in Newark. In the main event, which we should be able to cover after the Showtime card ends in the other thread, Zab Judah makes his official return to junior welterweight against powerful Lucas Matthysse. In the co-feature, lightweight contenders Robert Guerrero and Vicente Escobedo do battle.
Note: Coverage, scoring and commentary of the Showtime card is here. We'll switch over to this post for the Judah-Matthysse bout.
