    As long as you don't say those two are comparable in ability.

      pretty much. that would be very fair. but Floyd has cherrypicked quite a couple of times already.

        i think once he gets hit by margarito his mental weakness will start to show... he cant overcome adversity and hes proven that...

        as far as speed.. its zab all day and will give tonio a hell of a fight in the beginning.... but like i said before... unfortunately.. its a 12 round fight

          No comment on tune-ups not okay for Floyd?

          Does anyone praise Floyd for fighting Sharmba Mitchell to get used to fighting a quick-handed, counterpunching southpaw, who is a lot like... Zab Judah?

              Damn man, I used to think you were cool lol. Your picking Marg over Zab. J/J But, I do not agree at all. Marg has a leaky defence and slow hands he will always be right infront of Judah. I believe Zab can take him 12 rounds and put on a boxing clinic a-la floyd v baldomir or he defeinitly has the power to get marg outta there.

              Because Floyd is too big for the sport right now.

                if this makes you feel any better... I WANT ZAB TO WIN... i love zab... unfortunately... my confidence in him fighting a hard 12 rounds against another elite fighter is totally **** right now.... what happened with baldomir? margarito would kill baldomir... altho he wouldnt knock down the granite chinster i think he would totally overwhelm him.... trust me man i wanna see the zab we all know he COULD be... but im going with probability on this one

                  Well yeah... but it was said earlier that Floyd was lauded for taking a tune-up fight when he had a big fight lined up in the future. Sharmba was definately a tune-up.

                  The point of a tune-up isn't to fight a world-beater. The point of a tune-up is to fight someone who fights the way your eventual opponent fights, but isn't nearly as good.

                    The difference between Marg and Zab is this. Marg gets tagged and keeps on coming. Zab gets tagged, and turns *****. I am a big fan of Zab, but the truth is, he doesnt like to get hit, and when he does, it throws his whole game off.
