    He was taking it to floyd at the begining , landing more effective shots , he was looking way faster using that jab a lot , Floyd at times looked clueless as to what he wanted to do or what he could actually throw and land. I think that was zab's complete **** up. From there on he just became garbage. Too bad he was a good fighter.
    The plan was to lay low for 6 six rounds Floyd let Judah wail on him intentionally so he cud gas.....The plan was to let him gas first then attack

          Zab is a world class fighter alright, but there seems to be a little confusion as to why he lost that fight against Floyd. It wasn't simply because Zab started off strong and then suddenly ran out of gas towards the middle of the fight, although that could be part of it.

          What I saw is at the beginning of that fight Zab was landing his right jab efficiently, which was setting up hooks, straight lefts, and left uppercuts. By the middle rounds Floyd began to neutralize Zab's jab, causing him to become frustrated and resort to "head-hunting mode." I always thought Zab was an underachiever as well, but I do realize that everything Zab does well starts with his right jab. I did think Floyd went down in that fight, although he was not hurt. Once Zab's jab stopped landing, his footwork looked terrible, and you could tell by the look on his face he was fighting out of desperation. Tell me what you think.

            Maybe if the ref acknowledged the knockdown Zab had gotten on Floyd, Zab would have been up on the cards by 3-4 rounds. That could have boosted Zabs confidence and may have won. Who knows. Counting the KD would have been huge. No one seems to talk about that

              What the hell? This is absurd....what does Zabs lack of discipline have to do with Mayweathers skills? Zab is just not as talented as Mayweather, has nothing to do with discipline. He wasnt landing the more effective shots, he landed a few shots here and there in the first "3" rounds while Mayweather figured him out. In the 4th round is where it all went downhill and Mayweather won every round from then on.

              lol@ Floyd looked clueless...lol huh? Mayweather stated the entire lead up to the fight that he knew what Zab was gonna bring to the table and that he was a front runner.

And it wasn't like Floyd was catching him with big punches he just stopped and backpedaled the whole fight after maybe round 4? Judah has some mental issues he gets discouraged very easily. If he had the mental strength of a marquez or Pac he could be top3 P4Pounder.
                wtf???he stopped punching cause floyd was countering him and busting his ass up....people say the same **** about the oscar fight"for some reason oscar stopped jabbing"cause floyd was countering over the top with the right hand..floyd is the reason they stopped throwing...give floyd his credit

                  I disagree. Zab got tired. And is mentally weak.

                    true that , it was a knock down , at least to my understanding if ur gloves touch the canvas , is ruled as a knockdown. but is in the past , i would've loved for a rematch right away.
