Its funny that Im reading that Floyd-Baldy thread but see him fighting on TV right now? Is this a new fight? Its on the spanish channel. I havent even really been watching but I turned it on in the 5th and his face was kind of beat up. Is he losing? He's fighting Perez but now it looks like he's getting the better of it. Still, how can he be helping Floyd while he has a fight tonight and the guy fights nothing like Floyd? Something is wrong about this. Maybe its an old fight or maybe Baldy is doing something dumb by sparring with Floyd while fighting a totally different kind of guy and maybe Floyd is dumb if he's sparring with Baldy and Baldy sucks right now?

or maybe its a sparing session were both guys get a work out. and ring experiance with talented opp

I think Floyd probably gave it to him in sparring, and then now he has to fight a guy with a totally different style so thats not a good combonation/

Or maybe he was never that good in the first place. Gatti cant avoid a punch if you told him it was coming, and Judah breaks down when his opponent walks through his punches and fires back. He had the perfect possible situation, and I'm glad he got his pay day. The guy had to sell dusters to support his family.

He just struggled badly with a journeyman, and I cant say I'm surprised.

Come on now, why do people always say that kind of stuff? I tell people all the time that its not fair to say that because you cant keep losing and being in brutal fights and expect to be the same exact guy. Your confidence is totally at a lower level and your skills will diminish some. He moved up in weight after he probally stayed at WW too long. He got shutout by Floyd and nearly shutout by Forrest while taking alot of punishment. After that your just not going to be the same guy you were coming into the Floyd fight when you were super confident and feeling great. You see that kind of stuff happened all the time. Its why I figured that Zab would definatly lose to Cotto. If Cotto has any kind of success then Zab is not going to forget that he's lost his last few fights and hasnt won in 2 years. Your not that same guy anymore. Mentally or physically. Its much different after you get beat
