will he realize he is one of the most gifted fighters ever, but he blew his career, and feel ****ty? or what do you think he will feel, or think about himself in his heart of hearts deep down? i mean i as a fan i get so pissed at him for his squander of his god given abilities. he must have some regret, or unfulfilled destiny type feelings! thoughts?

yeah for sure.....
he didnt squander them completely...he fought the best, won world titles and if he can get past clottey it may signal a return to his best form....
but if he just focused he would be in top ten p4p for sure -
I love Zab. Whenever I'm feeling down, I just have to think about Zab Judah, and the giggles bring the sunshine back into my day.Comment

I really haven't seen a huge amount of Judah, but from what i have seen I would say that for all his natural gifts, he wasn't actually that talented as a boxer. Yes he was incredibly fast and athletic, but when it came to technical skill beyond this I think he was lacking. One thing I've repeatedly noticed is that he looked awesome when on the offensive but immediately after finishing any attack he would seem a little short of ideas on what to do next, where he should move to, how he should position his body etc, and it made him vulnerable.
Doubtless he could have achieved more, but like Naseem Hamed and even Roy Jones he was so reliant on what he could do that he neglected to focus and improve on what he couldn't. You might say he was almost the flipside of Floyd Mayweather, a fighter of similar natural talent but also one of the best schooled there has ever been. Whether Zab's failings were a result merely of neglect or, more seriously, a result of inability is a question I don't really know the answer to.Comment
