    Zab is the most overrated fighter today..

    All he has fought and looked good against are just a bunch of bums, but people talk like this guy like he's god and beat everyone...

    Zab=most overrated fighter today

      He needs to fight Floyd or Margarito next year.
      Exactly!

      Talented, but unproven!

        for some odd reason everyone was saying cory spinks was a very good boxer and p4p material. But now that judah beat him everyone says hes overrated and always have to mention a fight (kostya tszyu) that happend in 2001. Yes he was hurt. And the reason he fell twice was becuase he got up too quickly. Its very obvious he didnt have his legs under him and just got up on reaction. Lets not focus too much on one fight and see what he does now.

        if u want to talk about overrated who has Margarito beat? He lost to santos

          Did you ever see me saying Margarito is top 10 p4p ?? No...

          I think he can beat Judah..
          Until he beats a world class opponent, Margarito ain't even top 20 p4p...

          Judah has potential, but the guy is overrated by many...

          Super Zab Judah, not talking about you, you know your ****...

            Very true,and yet..i like margarito more.Zab had the opp to fight PBF,and what now? NO fight with pbf.Margarito didnt have that opportunity if he did the fight would have been on already.

            As far as the spinks thing..some people say Zab is p4p material,dosent make it true.

              No matter what you say. Every fighter is going to be "overated" in his career. Spinks is very good at what he does. He's feather fisted but he's a very good boxer, REALLY underated actually. I felt Spinks just barely beat Judah the 1st time but the crowd and St.Louis atmosphere got to him a little bit too much, thats why I think he got KO'd imo.

              But, he's a professional and he shouldn't let the crowd and his entrance get in the way of his gameplan.

              Judah's talented, but unproven. Until he fights a name and WINS, then he'll get my respect.

                    Really, you need to look outside just Mexican fighters. Good fighters exist in all races.

                    Im waiting for you to make the thread whose better Morales/Barrera or Mayweather.

                      To a certain extent I agree with what you're saying. Judah is a very talented guy and he's built up a pretty good fight card, but he's not really stepped up against superstar opposition. So I wouldn't exactly call him unproven, but I think it is time for him to face a really challenging opponent.

                      I see him as somewhat overrated, but not hugely overrated. He's still the best welterweight right now and he has wins over Ward, Green, Witter, Spinks and Corley.

                      I really hope we see Judah vs. Mayweather in 2006. Money wise this fight should work for both fighters and it should be a good one to watch.
