What happened to that upset KO that Judah was supposed to score!!??

[baller]

Come out, come out, wherever you are. Where's the experts (Sally,Starr, Saddo? , etc.) who called for this to happen.

[SalTheButcher]

i didnt call 4 a ko, but if u want an excuse...

u choose,

gloves or riot?

[meowza]

Wait... you're saying the riot worked in Judah's favour?
I believe it was the exact opposite.
It happened right when Floyd was at the top of his groove.
I think the delay after the riot allowed Judah to compose himself and not get knocked out himself.
Not the other way around.

How was Judah about to get knocked out with 5 seconds left in the round and a minute of recovery between rounds 10 and 11?

[meowza]

Not saying he would've knocked him out in the last 5 seconds of round 10 per se, but c'mon.
It was like a brand new fight after the riot.
A brand new fight after Judah was getting wrecked for 5 straight rounds.
Riot totally favoured Judah.

My question is how did the riot prevent Judah from scoring a knockout?

[Purist]

because Mayweather fought the smart defensive fight from then on after going in trying to knockout Judah and getting clocked.

[meowza]

Yeah I'm not saying Floyd would've KO'ed him for sure if the riot didn't happen at all.
My comment was in response to Sal's original comment stating the riot prevented Judah from KO'ing Floyd.
So I was merely saying if the riot prevented anyone from knocking anyone out, it prevented Floyd more than it prevented Judah.
Not saying either would've done it for sure.

[Purist]

ok

did you know that judah was choked by roger mayweather for over a minute during the riot?

Muhammad Ali fought Floyd Patterson. Both were fast fighters. Muhammad Ali won, because he's flat out better.

Floyd Mayweather=Muhammad Ali
Zab Judah=Floyd Patterson

[meowza]

Well from the tv angle it looked like they were more just holding each other.
Not sure if you had a better ring side view or what.
Whatever the case, Roger should and will get fined and punished for that no question.

But there is no way THAT is what prevented Judah from winning the fight.
Getting whacked for 5 straight rounds sucking all the confidence out of Judah did more damage then any supposed choke.

Ali could have killed Patterson, he beat him without mercy and prolongued the beating on purpose to keep Patterson on his feet not to knock him out but punish hiim and tortured him knowing he had back problems executing his jab to put every second of Patterson in pain where he couldn't even move ou of the way because Ali wanted to mercilessly beat him for every one of those 1 sided rounds which was every round.

I don't think the fight was that one sided or Brutal

But I get your point.

You said Judah was going to knock Mayweather out many times, and I thought Mayweather would kncok out Judah, I was closer because Judah was getting more and more hurt until he low blowed Mayweather to get out of it. Also how did the gloves make a difference? If anything it made Mayweather hit lighter... Your excuses make not sense because if Judah was good enough he could have gotten around the gloves which weren't all that much bigger.

Judah was getting more and more damaged, and he couldn't take Mayweather's punches as well anymore... it was a matter of time... That is until he got loads of time to recuperate.
