Zab Judah has signed on to endorse Rocawear's new athletic line, Team Roc.

Judah will enter the ring wearing the line on tomorrow (April 10) at the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, where he will fight as a welterweight for the first time taking on Cory Spinks, the undisputed unified welterweight champion and son of famed boxer Leon Spinks.

"This is an exciting fight for me. It's my first as a welterweight and I'm looking forward to getting in the ring and showing what I can do," Judah said. "Being a part of the Roc team and wearing the gear is totally hot. I love what Dame is doing and I'm happy to be a part of it."

Dash added that he has always been a fan of boxing and that Team Roc was created to give athletes a more stylish look.

"As I've said before, hip-hop and boxing are natural allies, we have a lot in common," Dash added. "We're excited to have Zab Judah wearing Team Roc in the ring."

Dash said Team Roc was created to support the young athletes in his own Harlem, New York community and that a portion of proceeds go to the Team Roc charity.
