One things that surprises me and will surely work to Margarito and Hatton's benefits is that to me, it does not sound as if Floyd seriously hurt Zab and I am not hating here but Zab has a weak jaw. If that is the case, Floyd better get his running boots on when he fights Maargarito!!!
Floyd never tries to hurt people with one punch. Against a quick fighter like Zab, you have to shorten your punches to make contact. Tszyu has power, Baldomir caught Judah with that shot he didn't see. And Floyd was hurting Zab. Maybe not to the chin, but he hurt him to the body. After rnd 6, Floyd was wearing him down, and Zab's heart was taken. Zab, IMO, would have been KOd by the end of 11, if he didn't cheap-shot, and then get a ten minute break{due to the brawl}.Quote:

And run from Margarito like the dickens!!!! He better hope Oscar wins come May 6th!Quote:

And it's not like Floyd took a speed potion. IMO, it was definately the body work. Zab took 3 of the first four rounds until Floyd started going to the body. Just my opinion.Quote:

You gotta remember the Zab that fought PBF was alot more prepared and better trained then the Zab that fought Baldomir. So PBF deserves credit for beating a very talented boxer in Zab Judah.
Guys, why was Round 2 not 10-8 and also,was it me or was jUdah way more popular?!?
Because of the performance he was putting on against Mayweather, they never expected it. When the underdog performs like Judah did against the best fighter on the planet he will get, I think this fight helps Judah, even in a losing effort.
Why was round 2 not 10-8? Cause Richard steele was the ref ;D
Good point Starr! Steele ::** I have to agree, I originally thought, if he lost, it would be difficult for him but who knows, it was a decent effort. Starr, one thing though, don't you think he should have left his hands go more,I wanted to see more urgency!!!1 If he had done that, who knows what could have happened!!!
I think he should have kept to Mayweather's body. I think in the 4th was that the round he wobbled him and got him on the ropes? instead of rushing him zab should have done what he did before and that was step away and let Mayweather come to him, but he rushed him and I think he spent himself a little more. But Floyd adapted to the situation and kept throwing his right until he could find the one to catch Zab with. But I;m glad Zab was looking for it, and when you hold Mayweather to landing single digits on you, you are doing a good job, and making Mayweather miss wildly I was shocked Judah did it. But didn't I say that Mayweather isn't at his best coming forward ;)
But anyway, I think if zab had let his hands go he never would have been able to come on late or stay in there. He may have won a few rounds but he would have been more tired then he was.
I think it was a winnable fight for Zab and the way he was banking rounds from Mayweather it leaves much to be desired, I hope these two meet again.
Tell me, in the round where Zab was talking to Mayweather and taunting him then hitting him, what did you think?
Yeah, maybe you are right,Mayweather coming forward...interesting,have to tell Tony about that. ;D I don't think Zab had much left in the tank towards the end anyway so I think he should have really stepped up the gas when he had him hurt and no doubt, to my surprise, he had Mayweather hurt quite a few times! Yeah, was a good plan to go to Mayweather's body but again, wish he had been able to maintain it, I think Mayweather was working him over towarsd the end of the fight.
What did I think about Judah taunting, honestly, I don't think should be looked at seriously. Was just goading him, showing him that he could keep up,machismo! Mayweather was cool about it after the fight and he did it too soo..Actually,what round was that? Could that have spurred PBF on more?
It was the third round I think. Zab was mocking Mayweather's hand placements for defense and using them as feints and then when he got Mayweather to react he hit him through the opening Mayweather made on himself.
Bring On The Sad Clicks! I knew I'd Get'em!!! ;D
I'm not talking trash... I'm just simply speaking "da truth." 8) haha
He went down quickly, I'm willing to say he could have missed it.Quote:
