    Anybody think less of Mayweather's defense?

    Floyd was hit a lot, but according to him, he gave those rounds to Zab...

    Did you see the last round? Now i know zab was frustrated by then but still, he made Zab look like a little boy.

      He was blocking beautifully in the middle rounds, though. Floyd always gets caught now and then...even Sharmba landed a few.

      I think the southpaw stance was more trouble than he expected, though.

        If anything I am more impressed. Mayweahter's D was awesome tonight as usual, blocking a ton of Zab's punches, thats why he landed at 14%.

          zab was hitting floyd whenever he threw the straight left!
          if judah can get a rematch and work on his conditoning, he can easily beat mayweather, every round where zab was aggressive he won!

            He adjusted to Zabs speed and leaned his head back like he always does and his chin helped him out alot but Floyd did his best in leanin back when he saw zab comin in. Floyd never got hurt either..Even in the early rounds when he caught that first Zab straight left, he was smiling behind his gloves lol..

            So if anything, his defense stepped up a notch. He hasnt even faced anyone as fast as Zab but when it was time to perform Defense and Offense when never seein that kind of speed...Floyd showed up..

              I thought everytime I saw Zab shoot that straight left with power it split open that defense. Up the middle is what worked for Zab.

                Until he adapted to it and made the fight his, he will do the same in the rematch. Give judah any diff style against floyd and new pointers whatever, PBF will adapt and make the fight his.

                  If that was the old Tszyu there and he was getting tagged like that, it would have been nighty night for Floyd.

                    You seem to forget that Judah is just as quick as a Floyd, a slick southpaw, and Floyd fights aggressively vs southpaws...

                    and Floyd STILL didn't get hit with a lot...
