    That's a theory.

    Judah didn't become THIS Judah until that knockout.

    Different destiny, different man because of it.

      The loss to Tszyu was pretty much it, before Tszyu Judah was considered a smaller new coming tyson and was supposed to rule the devision with an iron hand. Judah bought into his own hype too much and severely underrated Tszyu as a mere journeyman with big punch. It all changed in the first round, when Tszyu was able to land one of his rights which demoralized Judah. After that Judah was pretty much fighting backwards and looking for an opening.

        I think Judah without a doubt could be one of the greats if he could just keep mentally stable, and not let emotions get best of him.. he just isnt mentally strong enough, which is why I believe he falls short in any of his fights...

            That's what they say about great fighters, they are able to recoup after a loss and be better then before.

              Exactly, we need look no further than Roy Jones to see what one brutal setback can do to a man.. A giant even. Everything changes.

                  Absolutely, I've been thinking about my own losses lately. When my fighter loses that means there's no redemption for maybe a half year. Maybe forever. Never.

                  The fighters who come back are truly special.

                  You can't be impatient. They bite down and struggle their way all the way back over the course.

                  That's what made the Rocky movies penetrate.

                    If he had parted ways with his father (who couldn't help him progress after a certain point), and gotten with a guy who could have leveled him and made him more boxing-oriented, he would have been on top as we speak.

                      Indeed, I noticed that when a fighter does not meet expectations(even in a win) you can't you even say his name for the next half a year or so.
