I will say this, if Judah could focus himself on conditioning and sticking to a gameplan. I truly believe that he could beat anybody from 140 to 147. Judah is just as talented athletically as Floyd. If he could just get a different trainer like Roach or somebody that would push him to be conditioned all 12 rounds and that would stress the importance of a gameplan, he would be UNSTOPPABLE!!! Even with that glass jaw. Does anybody else agree with me?
I think he would be better with a different trainer but it starts and ends with HEART, I don't think Judah has enough
He needs to visit the wizard of oz:
He will give him Courage...and a heart.
God given talent is only half the case with fighters...BALLS is what counts.
Even if the wizard gives him heart that heart won't help him when he get's hit on the glass chinQuote:

Fully conditioned or not, the only thing unstoppable in a Judah bout is his opponent's straight right hand. Unstoppable? Please. Maybe if he ditched the cross block because he might be really fast, he may be really powerful, but he'll always be open for the straight right.
He may not have quit against Baldomir, but he let a little adversity turn him into a different fighter.Quote:

Besides any boxer dealt with adversity becomes a different fighter, like Shane Mosley.
It's not smart if you get stunned to try to slug back and knock out your opponent.
Smarter fighter? Are you kidding me? No, he turned into a dumb, beatan fighter. He was dictating the pace of the fight up until the 7th round, from then on he was allowing Baldomir to push him back and Judah didn't even put up a fight. Baldomir was open, he was slow, and he was wide and loopy. Judah had oppurtunities to land and get out of there, but he was just allwing himself to get pushed back and his punch output went down, way down. It may not be smart to come back from almost being knocked out to try to KO your opponent, but it's definitely not smart to become a pushover.Quote:

Maybe but how long did that take him? I mean, 1 or 2 rounds off to recover is understandable...but 5? He choked. He always does the minute things get tough for him. Mayweather adjusted to Judah, and Judah failed to make the proper adjustmens himself. I mean the guy is an animal, but he doesn't have a head on him. He doesn't do the stuff in the fight that is required of him. I wish he would of stuck with Duva. With Duva I bet he is top 10 P4P.Quote:

Quick question, has Zab ever fought back from adversity? ever been on the receiving end and come out on top?
Genuine question, I havent seen all his fights.
From what Ive seen he is a good on top fighter, he cant "bottom down" as they say.
He seems to lack the heart, mental toughness and belief that seperates the good from the great.
My segments exactly :coolclick:Quote:
