Judah is a problem for Mayweather because he is faster than Mayweather, is a south paw and has pretty good pop. Judah knocked Mayweather down with a clean punch. Mayweather was more surprised than hurt and Zab failed to follow up, but it is a great example of why Judah's physical skill set is a problem for Floyd.
I wouldn't put any money on Judah in a rematch with Floyd for 3 reasons: (1) Floyd is much bigger now; (2) Judah has slowed down considerably (watch is fight against Clottey which wasn't as close as the scorecards said); and (3) Zab is one of the weakest fighters mentally I have ever seen. Show him adversity and he crumbles. Floyd is shrewd and skilled enough to lure Zab into deep water and Zab will fall apart.
Floyd's problems with Zab's physical skill set are part of the reason why I think he'd have considerable problems with Pacquiao. Pacquiao is about as fast as Zab (faster than Floyd), he is a south paw with decent power at 147. Couple this with Pacuiao's way superior foot speed and his volume punching (two things Zab lacked) and Floyd has real stylistic issues.
