      I hope Zab takes him. I know everyone wants to see Hatton and Mayweather. But Mayweather didn't look as fast against Mitchell as he did against Gatti. I don't know if it's because Mitchell is faster than Gatti or because Mayweather wasn't up for this fight. I think Zab has got the hand speed and the defense to hang with Mayweather.

        Zab might have an edge in power, but thats about it IMO. PBF is a better pure boxer, better D, faster hands and a WAY better CHIN! Dont make me bust out Zab doing the chicken dance clip!

          You're entitled to your opinion, but everyone got on the PBF bandwagon after the dominating win over Gatti. That was a serious style mismatch. Gatti is a puncher but his power didn't prove to be a threat to PBF. Zab is quick and powerful. He's a boxer with a fairly strong punch. I just think the PBF and Zab's styles match up good in this fight. But I do see Zab pulling it out.

            If this fight comes off I cant remember a time in recent memory where we will have this kind of natural talent in the ring.

            Say what you want about Zab and Floyd but they may be the two most naturally gifted fighters in the world...all that speed is going to be fun too watch even if they never land a punch.

            Now-if Zab is cautious against Corey Spinks who I think is a piece of **** then what is he going to be like with a guy like Floyd-aggressive?

            My pick is Floyd, if Spinks can beat Judah even just once then Mayweather could do it too...If Floyd was to fight Spinks it would be almost as bad as the Gatti fight-Corey would never touch floyd.

                    Zab may have the edge in power, but he lacks defense and overall boxing ability. His over-reliance on power will ultimately be his undoing.
