Another Rescheduled: Walkin' on Broken Glass

Don't break open the piggy bank quite yet, the Pay-per-view fight that was scheduled for May 31st between "Sugar" Shane Mosley and Zab Judah is going to be postponed.  Zab Judah reportedly put his arm through the glass door of his shower and required 50 stitches to seal the wound. (your going to have to wait to blow your $54.99 for a couple extra weeks)

This is the second incident this year in which a top boxer had troubles with glass.  In between his bouts with Jermain Taylor, Kelly Pavlik was doing some work around the house and accidentally launched his arm through a glass window.  The injury required 100 stitches and threw a wrench in his training schedule for the fight.  However,  the bout was not rescheduled and Pavlik recovered from the injury to defeat Taylor for the second straight time. 

These guys need to stay away from the glass objects before a fight or refrain from employing the training techniques used by Jean Claude Van Damme's character (Kurt Sloan) in the movie Kick Boxer (fists dipped in glass).
