Zab displays amazing speed but it's the kind that takes a lot of energy. That's why I think it's more flash than substance at elite level.
Pac can maintain his fast and high paced combination power punching for 12 rounds whereas Zab tends to gas out before the halfway mark and he doesn't stop his opponents as much as Pac does. Pac can go as fast as Zab (see training footages) but he doesn't have to at the extent of sacrificing leverage. He doesn't go overboard with the speed and that makes him a more effective puncher overall.
So to answer your question, Zab has the faster hands. :D
Why does it feel that you just pumped up Pacman's stature although you voted for Zab? http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
If you watch them in the ring....Zab is in on another level with his handspeed..I dont think its close....
Ive been saying that for the longest,...
Zab is bigger...stronger and faster then Pac and hits harder..thats why hes the perfect southpaw sparring partner for Floyd.
lmao Pacquiao would have knocked Zab out in 6.

Mannys faster, he's got some of the fastest hands ive ever seen at 130+
judah is faster but he gets tired doing it over and over..unlike pac he can do it for 12 rounds..
pac can also do judahs speed
watch pacquiao vs marquez 1,
the 1st punch that put marquez on the canvass.. that punch reminded me of judah..fast as hell..
and great thing about pacquiao is he can do it for 12 full rounds.. :))))
The only thing Judah does better than Manny is to get knocked out face first!!!!!!!
I don't know, Pac's done that a couple of times pretty well. :lol1:
Just based on handspeed, it's pretty obviously Judah. He was one of those guys you just sort of go "Wha....?" at, whereas Pac you think "Damn that dudes fast."
So, Judah is faster. :lol1:

great post man..
well zab is really fast with his hands man, but idk, i think manny is a little faster overall but if zab is faster by any means its hand speed, but manny could still be faster there and manny has way... more stamina than zab and more motivation too
I think all the ppl who are picking Pacquaio misunderstand the question... there is absolutely no question about who is better now, who is better in their primes, etc. Pacquiao without a question is better than Judah EVER WAS!!
With that said, I believe that Judah is one of the most Naturally Talented Fighters ever in the sport... what is unfortunate for Zab is the fact that he never developed the capability to come back after being hurt. If you look at most of the fights he's lost.... he held his own against some amazing fighters: He was whooping Kostya Tzysu's (however u spell it) butt, til Tzysu landed that punch that knocked Zab out; he was beating the crap out of Mayweather until the late rounds when PBF started landing good combos, He held his own against Cotto and Clottey until they respectively started landing big punches... once Judah is hurt, or gets hit with big punches he starts losing his composure, starts screwing up and getting hit more and more... then he does dumb things like low blows and what not... once Judah is hit by big shots at any point of the fight, he will mess everything up...
Regardless, Judah as talented as he is, cannot be mentioned by any means in the category of great Fighters, Pacquiao is a great fighter...
Yeah I know, that fight is just as unfortunate as the Ruiz-Tua fight. Ruiz was winning that fight handily until Tua landed that lucky punch.
Who knows, maybe if someone made a split-screen Video comparison right next to each other we would know. One thing I do know, is that Manny Pacquiao is 20x the boxer Zab Judah could ever dream of being. Maybe even more then that. I'm going to go with Manny though. I think Zabs fast, but his speed has to be overrated a bit since Floyd, Cotto, Clottey didn't have trouble over coming his speed.
Zab is one of the fastest if not thee fastest puncher in boxing but he tends to break down after a few rounds!!!
Speed wise Zab would beat Manny but Mannys Power would be to much for Zab!!!
who has better chin pacquiao or judah?
Good question.
I don't think we've really even seen Manny's chin tested above 130.
So the jury is out on this one.
Zab has a good chin though. He gets shit on for the Kostya KO but the dude is a natural 140lbs'er who took some serious bombs from guys like Cotto and Clottey.
Zab has heart and chin in spades.
They are about even now but Zab in his prime was wickedly fast. Zab could have been something special if he would have listened to his father more and used his mind more in the ring instead of resorting to show boating and brawling with everyone.
Zab is faster with one punch. There's no doubt to me.
But Manny is so much more overwhelming with his speed because he throws punches in bunches. Zab is easier to time because his punches become predictable eventhough they are fast. For example Pacquiao would make Baldomir look foolish with his combination punching and in and out movement. Manny is also quicker on his feet.
Hahaha, Dude, get off the Anti-PAC wagon. Do you realize what you just said. Hmm, I prefer to listen to what David Diaz said after he got demolished by PAC "The f**ker was just too fast"
And here you're saying he looked slow against Diaz(lmao), Diaz out of everyone else in this world would know who the faster one is. Hmm, lets see D. Diaz beat Zab in the amateurs and D. Diaz got his @ss handed to him by PAC.
Anybody is fast compared to David Diaz, the dude telegraphs everything he throws. So naturally he's going to talk about how fast Pacquiao was against him.
As for Diaz beating Zab, yeah, he did. But that was the amateurs. The amateurs mean "fuck all" when you're talking about the pros.
Roy Jones and Floyd both failed to get the Gold Medal in the Olympics.
Does that have any efect on the standing of their pro careers?
