Zab has power and speed but he's much too careless. It seems like whenever he puts his punches together with real commitment he starts swinging wild and leaving his chin wide open. Ever since that shellacking Kosta Tyszu gave him, Zab's style seems to have gotten, and for good reason, too tentative and lackluster. But whichever Zab decides to show up at the fight, old swing-at the-fences Zab or the new blah Judah, it won't make a difference, Mayweather is going to overwhelm him. And that's not only because of Mayweather's unbelievable talent but also because of his unbelievable intelligence. Just take a look at any one of his fights, particularly the one with Corrales, and its clear that he chooses his punches carefully by hitting his opponents with shots that are not necessarily meant to hurt them, although it happens, as much as they are meant to surprise them and undermine their confidence. Before Corrales was stopped, he already had that look on his face which kept saying, "Holy shit, I can't believe he just got away with that." Of course, this is not to say that there aren't any thinking-boxer-punchers out there, but just to say that none of them do it like Mayweather - none of them!
