Judah actually looked Awful!!!

[johncods]

Anyone watched the fight and saw it the way I did?? Zab looked terrible IMO and was losing badly up until the KO. He was just running throwing meaningless shots and got lucky.

He also got KD'ed( flash KD) and almost had a Tszyu like meltdown.

Nah, what you saw was Judah really use the jab a lot, and use defense which he never did and his defense looked great, he did look like he was getting tired, but that came with being to defensive minded, me and my cousin kept yelling throw the left after he misses like that, he finally did. He did get rocked but I thought he recovered well and I agree with the annoucners that could of been a 9-9 round, and considering I didn't see the final scorecards, if you score it through 6, kaiser won 3 rounds, Judah won three if you score the knockdown round 9-9, so mabuza would had been ahead 57-56, you could also make the argument Judah won 4 rounds, I believe it was the 6th he got rocked and the 4th he got dropped, really didnt get dropped he was off balance and mabuza cupped his head and only his glove touched the canvas

There's no such thing as a 9-9 round. LOL. Zab never connected with anything solid until the KO and was running at times which in turn actually saved his energy.

But he was losing badly. The commentators had Judah's **** so deep in there mouths it was ridiculous. Any of the top JWW's would beat Judah IMO.

Judah was just too patient a defensive minded, his footwork looked good, he was making Mabuza miss bad, jab was on point, the counter left was short quick and powerful, and he finished him. and Mabuza is a dude who had a belt. But since your not a fan and hate on Judah your gonna find something negative about his win and performance. all that matters is he said he was gonna get a major title again and he did

i wouldnt go as far as to say he looked terrible, he was moving well and landing the harder punchers however he was going backwards and throwing rarely. At the time of the knockout i had him losing, three rounds a piece with the knockdown.

Still it was a good victory over a hungry, young world champion in Mabuza.

If he really thinks god is on his side though, he should fight Maidana

That's your opinion as yes there is, just because you knock someone down don't meant you win the round, but you lose a point if you get knocked down, so therefore if its a flash knockdown yet you dominate the round, you would get 10 minus your knockdown deduction. just like if a boxer gets dominated without got knockdown a judge can score it a 10-8 round

You obviously don't know what you are talking about.

It's called a "10 point must" system for a reason. One fighter "must" get 10 points in the round. If a judge sees the round as a tie he can make it 10-10, but if he made it 9-9 he would be fired for not knowing how to follow simple instructions.

The only way a round could end 9-9 would be if the guy who won the round had a point deducted, which was not the case in Judah-Mabuza.

Even in that case though, the round is actually first scored as 10-9 and then the judge subtracts the point after making the decision on the scoring of the round.

If a fighter is knocked down 95% of the time the round will go 10-8 against him, the other 5% of the time, when he was winning the round outside of the KD, it will only be scored 10-9 against him.

I am willing to bet you cannot provide a single example in the history of the sport where a fighter was knocked down and ended up having the round scored even without scoring his own KD.
