Does Zab Judah have the best footwork/speed???

I would pick Judah for speed years ago as the fastest, but I don't think he's quicker than Khan at this stage. He's still fast by most standards, and has that nice left uppercut, but he's not as fast as he used to be.Comment

I think he trained hard for the big fights. He probably didn't prepare well for the Baldomir fight, and maybe not Pineda either, but for guys like Tszyu, Mayweather, Cotto and Spinks, I think he trained hard.In my personal opinion, I think Zab could've been an ATG if he had trained better and had a better mentality to fighting. Hell, He was faster and had more handspeed than Mayweather when they fought. His problem was that he didn't train seriously enough at times and was too emotional.
He just had problems with his focus and adapting once his opponent started having success. He'd often just go into his shell when he got tagged hard, looking for one big shot (often the left uppercut). Landing that one perfect shot is not easy, especially against world class fighters.Comment

punch speed...its damn near close. zab has very fast hands. in the floyd fight, it was even clear his hands were faster than floyds. its close, but both zab and khan are very similar in many ways when it come to handspeed and using it as an advantage in a fight. i would say khan throws better combos, but zab has more power. and they both have ****ty footwork at times.Comment
