Zab's a great fighter for the first half of fights.
But if you can take his power, not get knocked out, and keep coming he breaks down mentally. Its happened time and time again which is why the Floyd fight wasn't that surprising, although it was surprising that he did as well as he did early. Judah's faded in fights versus guys as ordinary as Pineda, Corley and Weiss. In all those fights he just stopped doing anything in the mid to later rounds. Even against Tsyzu he looked great for one round, did nothing in the second round and got knocked out. As fights go on he just goes into do as little as possible mode, especially if he gets hurt like in the Baldomir fight (a fight he'd lose again if they had a rematch), and against elite fighters that just doesn't work. I was impressed with him in the second Spinks fight because he was consistent, outside of the Micky Ward fight, when he was not being trained by his father, and to some extent the first Spinks fight how often has he fought consistently? It basically comes down to mental weakness. And you just can't discount that, its a big problem, he's mentally fragile.
