    I thought that maidana gave him more trouble throughout the fight but zab gave him quite a bit of trouble the first 4 rounds then Floyd just took over.

    Pretty sure there wasn't a round past the 4th or 5th you could really give Zab, can't remember though. Given that Maidana was very much in the fight till the end, you'd have to say him. I think Judah probably put more fear in him for the rounds that he was taking early though, if that makes sense. He seemed to actually have Floyd solved for a good 10 minutes or so.

    Judah hurt Floyd, put him down and caused more problems. Floyd took over after adjusting and zab blowing himself out as usual.

    If Zab was just a little more careful in the ring he would not have been embarrassed by Tyzsu and he would have won more rounds vs. Floyd. He worked perfectly in the first half of the fight.
    Bigger man George, bigger punch!

    Zab can be fragile mentally when put under pressure by top fighters. He will always implode.

    That was def a knockdown, even Lennox Lewis said so on the replay. I lost money on this fight and it's the last time I ever bet against mayweather again. I really thought Zab had a shot. He was doing so well and then, well, Floyd figured him out, just like Chino.

    I still think Floyd should've been DQ'd when roger entered a live round, but it's not bc I think Floyd's record would suffer, it's because that's the rule, isn't it!!

    While I dont think that Zab was that remarkable of a win at that point of Judah's career, I was very impressed with Floyd's skill in that fight. He set some phenomenal traps and set ups early that paid huge dividends late and had Zab frustrated, exhausted, and on the verge of being stopped. I have always felt that if Zab had not had the break from the chaos...etc., he would've been stopped.

    2014-2006 = 8 years.
    I would say that Zab gave Floyd the most trouble, considering Floyd was probably faster at that time.
    They both gave him trouble for 4 or 5 rounds, then Floyd started picking them apart.
    I do think the Maidana fight was harder on Floyd, because Floyd either laid on the ropes purposefully to tire Maidana or couldn't keep Maidana off. Fighting Maidana with your back to the ropes is absolutely the wrong way to fight him. Floyd will stay off the the ropes this time, as much as possible.
    Anyone who thinks Maidana gave Floyd more trouble because Floyd is more experienced now is wrong. This is hard to say, Floyd fought a stupid fight in my opinion, that and the fact that Maidana has a jab now made it a difficult fight for Floyd.
