As we all know, Floyd Mayweather Sr. will be in Judah's corner when he faces Shane Mosley. Mayweather Sr. is known for making fighters better. I know Zab is naturally talented. He was blessed with good speed and good power. In the past we have seen Judah fight some good fights for about 5 or 6 rounds before he breaks down mentally.
So I ask you guys.... Will Mayweather Sr. give him that edge what he's been missing? ( that mental toughness) Or do you still think Zab will break down mentally?
I love this move! I actually thought that something like this should have been done A LOOOOOOONG time ago. I just feel that Zab needs that extra work and motivation and I personally don't think his pops was giving it to him. Picture this, Zab working with Mayweather since he lost to Kostya, he would be top 3 in the world, no doubt! Then his fight with Floyd would have been much bigger and better than it was. I like Zab, he has stumbled in his career (mostly mental aspects, reminds me of a smaller Tyson), but he keeps getting chance after chance...hope he can pull it off against Mosley.
I'm in his corner all the way. and I support this move. Look for a more technically sound, and smart Zab Judah. Sounds crazy, but its possible. Big Floyd is an awesome trainer.
Yes. Even though he is unintelligible, Floyd Sr. has a rep of being the best trainer in the business.
The only person that says that is Senior HIMSELF.
Oh and Fuck Ron Paul.
You can't train someone to have mental fortitude, so no it's a wrap. This is Zab's last stand and he's trying to put himself in the best position to win. My opinion doesn't mean shit but I don't seeing it work out for him.
NOw that I just read what Zab said, Im starting to change my mind again. He said that they "brought in" Floyd Sr.
What does that mean? Does that mean that Yoel is out the picture or are they both working together? I thought Zab was going to Sr.
If there working together then I think Zab will probally be the same ole guy. He has to get Yoel out the picture
Thats a good question. Unfortuanetly I dont know if Yoel is going to work with Floyd Sr. or not. It would be great though if Sr. can do his own training camp becuase Yoel camps must wasnt doing something right for Zab. Sr will imply mental toughness to Judah but its on Judah to listen and learn.
Yes and no unfortunately.
I'm still in some were in the middle myself. I want to think Sr. will make him mentally tougher but when Zab gets hit will resort back to being timid and gun shy? ( afraid to let his hands go) So I agree with ya 100%.

Zab will be Zab. You can't teach mental fortitude nd dedicton. Shane is going to put it on him May 17th, bank on it.You're homie. That is something you must do on your own but Sr. is an in your face type of guy. Maybe it will help him, maybe it wont. Only time will tell.
And something else. I agree with you that Shane is going to beat Mosley. NO DOUBT.
I sure hope he makes Zab better, but I honestly have no idea regarding Zab's mentality with everything. I hope he just says f*ck all the dumb shit and fights.
Hey only time will tell my friend. I picked Mosley to win but I still like Zab as a fighter and I just hope that Sr will get Zab focused and keep his head on straight. Zab has to much talent and he is letting go to waste IMO. He is physically ready for anybody but his mental aspect is lacking big time. As skills said you have to learn to be mentally tough on your own but you can have a trainer to help you with that problem (just my opinion)

I actually think you can teach that in some ways. Sr will give Zab a totally different camp then his father and Zab will respcet it because he knows its his last shot to be great. The problem is that Zab is so down now that who knows if he can even get back to a top level mentally of physically but I do think that if he can then Sr. will make a huge difference. If he got him 2 years ago then I would say that Zab would be a beast and I think its still possible that he could be a very scary fighter who could beat Mosley and then a guy like Margarito with Sr. when I thought that Margarito would kill him before this move
I sure hope he makes Zab better, but I honestly have no idea regarding Zab's mentality with everything. I hope he just says f*ck all the dumb shit and fights.
