why isnt Zab 'Super' Judah as good as Floyd?

[abadger]

By comparison with Floyd, Judah can't box. He's fine when he's throwing those fast hands at you, but watch what happens after he's done throwing. He has terrible positioning and often seems not to know what to do next, and this makes him vulnerable. Throw in his mental fragility and you have a boxer who was never going to make it as one of the very best.

He ****ed up
Zab Judah was born

He doesn't have the mental discipline and mental toughness that Mayweather had, and he has a habit of fading as his fights go on.

He should change his trainer as well, Yoel is not a good trainer at all, I think part of Judah's early success was because he was in the Duva camp and got to train and spar with Whitaker.

This post sums it up.

I don't know why people talk about Zab's mental game. He comes from brooklyn, he's a tough kid. He just doesn't have a right hand, he's a way too small for WW, and his body isn't like Floyds.

Floyd has a square ass body with no kneck, notice how Floyd is only capable of usin that shoulder defense? lol It's cause his square ass doesn't have a kneck. Every other fighter that trys that defense, if they have a kneck...it won't work. They're heads would be over the shoulder too much when they attempt to tuck their head in.


But the major difference between the two is discipline. Floyd knows to stay away from the Welterweight division when it was hot, Floyd knows to enter the WW division when it's weak. Floyd knows to fight Carlos over Antonio Margarito, Floyd knows to retire when confronted about a Cotto fight.

Floyd knows to officially sign the papers to fight Judah AFTER Judah loses to Carlos.

***** ass moves like that keep Mayweather a undefeated fighter.










Zab goes into fights Brooklyn style, no reguard for ****. You can lose doin that, but atleast you man-up.

I had to and also call on the bold. **** does where he from have to do with anything?

The mystery that is Zab Judah, One of the most talente fighters in accordance to overall skill that we have ever seen, but one who lacks discipline in and out of the ring, motivation, and lastly one of the most important dedication....The last being in some instances......He is one i never understood, one minute hes great, the next he's just off, and i think thats the best way to put it is OFF.....His natural speed and power is something that the combination of the 2 dont come around much, many have speed, but lack overall punching power, many have power, but lack the dazling speed, well Judah possessed both....He would knock ppl out with one punch, bc they couldnt see it comin, his hands were fast, and he had devastating KO ability, especially in the Light Welterweight division....He is like an enigma of the sport of boxing, when the man is good, hes GREAT, but he's never truly been great for a long period of time since losing to Tszyu in 01....Still though, I feel as though he possess great boxing technique, and after what I had seen in the Cotto fight, there is no questioning this kids heart.....He's only 30 years old, and thats young by boxing standards nowadays, but this is DEF his ;last chance....And in true Judah fashion, he's taking on, what I think is one of the toughest fights for anybody in the WW division right now in Joshua Clottey...WEll rounded, solid chin, who works at a high rate and seems to know a lot of the tricks to the trade so to speak, a dirty lil fighter inside the ring.....Judah has never backed down from anyone, and NEVER WILL.....

Watch fo Clottey early, trying to land lil sneaky shots to try to rattle Judah, Hes notorious for rabbit punching and hitting low, and i hope Judah is ready for it, cuz after Miguel got downright dirty in there fight, Judah was struggling the rest of the night...

IMO, and I cant help but follow my heart with this one, Judah wins on points......WOW that just sounds weird.....I think Judah comes out early and dominates rounds 1-6, building a comforatble lead on the cards....Again this is where i think Clottey tries landing some of those illegal shots, to try to turn this into a streetfight...If Zab is able to box, and not stray away from it, HEll win a close decision, despite building the lead early, I d say Clottey turns it up from 6-10, and this one comes down to the championship rounds and who wants it more....And quite simply, if Judah allowws Clottey to wins this last 2-3 rounds, he has to be finished, because he doesnt want it anymore...He needs this fight more then any other in his career, and I expect him to lose the show late winning around 115-112.....Keep in mind I think Clottey will lose a point along the way............................

His defense is worse, his mental discipline is worse, his training team is worse.

He had all the tools to be more than mayweather (he has knockout power, and a really nasty attitude problem that could have made him a superstar) but he isnt disciplined enough, he fades as fights go on and bitches out when its not going swimmingly

[PrettyBoyFloyd7]

You hae never been to brooklyn.

brooklyn aint that tough...Its really overhyped..

[MELLY-MEL...]

he has all the gifts and than some of floyd physically, but in the mental area he is severly lacking.
