judah dismantaed mayweather in the first half
second half mayweather destroyed him
theres a pattern in all mayweather fights- he starts slow- and doesn't commit to a game plan untill he figures out the other guy
his in ring adjustments are the greatest in boxing history
however- the fact he never tested himself at the highest levels during his prime and the fact that he took long leaves of absence whenever a credible challenger cam along make him below pacman in the ATG rankings

Manny is a workrate fighter with horrible accuracy and short arms. He can't box with a boxer, and he can not fight against a counterpuncher. Marquez proved that already. When Manny can't throw 1,000 punches, he can't beat you. And Manny will not throw 1,000 punches to a counterpuncher as big and strong as Floyd.
Lands on average half of is power punches, some might say that is pretty good.

Manny is smaller than Judah and has much shorter arms.
Zab has the same range as Floyd, so Floyd can't just stay out of range if he is in punching range for himself Judah can land back.
Manny is smaller and has shorter arms, so even if he is a better more capable fighter Floyd can land without being in danger as long as he plays it smart.

Originally posted by FeFist View PostJudah gave Floyd problems because he boxed with him, set traps, timed him on a few occasions. Things Pacquiao can not do.
Aside from being a southpaw and having quick hands they do not fight alike.
Judah didn't even give Mayweather problems, he was competitive for 4 rounds then got dominated.
