why did zab stop throwing?

the first 3 rounds he had cotto hurt twice, 3 times total in the fight. zab was landing the left uppercut easily and snapping cottos head with each shot. why'd he stop throwing the left? it wasnt like cotto was making him pay for throwing it, zab hadn't been hit much up to round 4 and was hitting cotto at will. after round 4 it was like he kept waiting and waiting and never threw a meaningful punch he's always been a 4 round fighter. he cant fight at a descent pace. cotto was just too much better a fighter than him,,,like kostya,,mayweather and even baldimr

Oscar De La Hoya disease.

ring rust. he had 2 minutes in a ring IN 2 YEARS!!! He doesnt think very well and his manager neither. What he needed to do is what was done for fighters like ODLH and other good fighters... Before cotto a rematch with the australian, kosta tsyzu i think thats his name. He should win that if he doesnt get KTFO again keeping his hands up. work another veteran after that. THEN COTTO. he was too much ring rust and now he can very well become a can. i dont think stamina will bless zab again (he's 29) and his chin isnt the best as well. He has power and speed in early rounds but i just dont know :( i'm still a fan though. Cotto i will not even talk about... that nut punching ..... grr You're a moron, you know that? You state your uninformed "facts" and then base everything else around it. In the last two years, Zab has fought 25 rounds, not 2 minutes. He had 12 rounds against Baldomir in January of 06 (that's a year and a half ago, in case you can't look at a calendar), 12 rounds against PBF in April 06, and one round against Galvan. I don't know about the math where you live, but that's 25 rounds in the rest of the world. Cotto applied too much pressure. I told you guys months before the fight that Judah cannot fight going backwards. That's why he "stopped throwing" against Cotto. The two accidental fouls were just that. The second time was actually CAUSED BY JUDAH when he pulled Miguel's head down while he was punching.

It's like having a hot intense sex w/ your chick and the phone rings or something happens that throws off your rhythm and you end up getting out of sync Having sex with your girlfriend is like getting punched in the nuts? Man you need another girlfriend! :D

bodyshots and pressure, two things zab judah don't take well............. i'll give u pressure but im not buying body shots...zab stopped throwing before cotto landed anything significant to the body. cotto never really hurt zab to the body or landed many body shots like he normally does either zab just didnt let his hands go for some reason. when he did he was busting cotto up. he just stopped doing it

Very hard to take this loss!!! He was right in this fight and like you said and he was very effective but fighting in spurts isnt enough to beat cotto!!! Zab is still my man and ill be hoping he can comeback from this!!!

He was connecting with that left uppercut early in the fight and threw it sparingly after. The low blows could have had an effect, but I felt like it was Cotto's consistent pressure that forced Zab to throw less and cover up more. yeah, cotto is a beast in terms of pressure-fighting, he fights the full 3 minutes and doesnt take a second off, its crazy but it still seems strange that zab just stopped throwing punches after the 2nd low blow. was cotto's pressure really that great that zab couldnt even throw that left uppercut? i don't know

versatile, no he didn't do nething tonight, he looked for every excuse to end the fight. Zab is a bitch , he knew he couldn't take the punch from cotto so he tried to find every excuse to end the fight. Zab is still an exciting fighter even though I'm not a fan and I think he still has some good fights in him, I just think the pressure and power was too much tonight. You call yourself a boxing fan and you post something like that after you watch a blood and guts performance by two great fighters? PATHETIC....

im not making excuses for zab, but you have to admit its strange that after the 2 low blows zab stopped throwing his power shots. he had cotto wobbled etc and knew it, theres no reason he should have stopped throwing. ive never taken a left hook to the nuts so i dont know how that would effect a 12 round fight. its just strange how he stopped throwing the left when he was hitting cotto at will with it

Zab was just pressured to much by Cotto. It seemed like he was waiting for Cotto to tire out and catch him with one punch, but Cotto didn't tire down and came with that relentless pressure. Judah showed good courage and heart tonight, he was just in there against a younger, stronger, man that just wanted it more. Great performance by both. Whoever saw the fight live are pretty lucky because both men put on a superb show.

Seemed alot more mature tonight zab judah...

If he didnt have the heart or balls then he woulda low blowed him or did something illegal. He still tried to fight threw,and didnt take a 10 count.And he lasted 10 rounds of pressure and punishment.Thats called having balls,I think your the only 1 really saying he didnt tonight. I dont know what fight you were watching.

Easy question, here's an easy answer -> Don't you find it funny, that ZAB's best rounds was when the low blows happened, and like you said after round 4 it was like ZAB kept waiting. Well, that's what a well executed low blow does to you, unfortunately in this fight it was two well placed groin shots. It takes the steam out of a fighter, and it takes awhile to get it back together, when you face a terrific fighter like Cotto, it becomes difficult to get back into rhythm. I know from my own experience, both from the receiving end and me givin' it to someone. There have been times where I got hit in the groin, but, it had little effect and times were it hurt real bad and actually had to walk it off for a good 2 minutes. When I used to box, I would use low blow tactics when my opponent was outhustling and I can't seem to get off, and guess what, if I throw a good well placed low blow, it slows down their workrate, that's my cue to step it up and gain momentum for myself. Here's an analogy..... It's like having a hot intense sex w/ your chick and the phone rings or something happens that throws off your rhythm and you end up getting out of sync, it takes awhile to get it back sometimes or you don't get it back at all. You just end up rolling over and sleeping(lol). Folks, this is what happened to ZAB tonight, and against a guy who is a helluva banger. Like they say in New Yawk, FORGET ABOUT IT !! Exactly. Finally someone came back to his senses. Thank you sir! I was thinking i was the only one seeing that

Why do people call boxers bitches? They give and take beatings for a living.I don't think getting beat by the better man makes someone a bitch

They both did good and they both have hearth and balls so theirs no nead for the shit talking on any of the 2.

Why is it everytime someones favorite boxer loses all you hear for the next 3 weeks are excuses. Please answer that
