I definitely think judah will win. Floyd's not a welterweight. He has to gain weight to make weight. I think it will show when he's in the ring with Judah. Floyd's never fought a guy with Judah's speed and capabilities. Floyd's never faced a skilled boxer/puncher. If he gets rocked in this fight like he did with Corley, Mayweather takes a nap around 8.
Judah asks Floyd to sit Ringside next week

The same could be said of Judah who's never faced anyone as fast as himself but with better defense, & better punch accuracy. Mayweather is technically ALOT more sound than Judah & that will be the difference in the fight. Judah's going to make alot of mistakes & will get countered & dropped more than likely. Every huge fight Mayweather has been in we've seen nothing but his A game & I expect the same from him. I'm taking Mayweather by TKO 7th.Comment

Spinks was as fast as Judah, and he had a better defense. Oscar was more technically sound than Mosley, but Shane still kicked his ass. So there goes that arguement. This is not a video game. Boxing is matchups of styles. Judah's southpaw style, couple with reflexes, speed, and power will be too much for Mayweather. Mayweather is not a welterweight.Originally posted by Knicksman20The same could be said of Judah who's never faced anyone as fast as himself but with better defense, & better punch accuracy.

Good post, your right eveytime Floyd has been in with a perceived threat he has taken his game to another level which is what I expect from him against Zab.
Responding to another post...I agree that Floyd is not a real or established Welterweight but I can say the same exact thing for Zab Judah.
Zab was iced by the the top 140 pounder in the world and I expect when he steps up and faces a big puncher at 147 the same result will happen.Comment

Again what makes you so damn sure that Zab is, who has he beaten or actually fought that suggest Zab is a true blue welter?Originally posted by 2_piece_combosSpinks was as fast as Judah, and he had a better defense.

i also agree pbf will step his game up for this fight.....to be honest the only advantage zab has is power and pbf is not ****** enough to let zab use it ....pbf's speed is superior to zab's and his ringsmarts and overall boxing skills are a couple of notches higher pbf wins either by tko (accumilation of punishment) or ud..Originally posted by scapGood post, your right eveytime Floyd has been in with a perceived threat he has taken his game to another level which is what I expect from him against Zab.

You have every right to believe what you want. However, Mayweather was in the amateurs as a featherweight. Zab is a career 140lber. He's been there since the ams. The move to welterweight was a natural gain considering he's older and his body is stronger. Mayweather walks around at 146, and that's before going to training camp. He's a small guy. He has to gain weight to make weight. It's not a natural gain. He's not a welterweight.Originally posted by scapResponding to another post...I agree that Floyd is not a real or established Welterweight but I can say the same exact thing for Zab Judah.

I've watched both guys come up through the ranks. Only one of guys has had HBO's favor. Floyd could have lost vs Augustus (prematurely stopped), lost vs Castillo I(robbery), and lost vs Sosa (bull**** decision). Mayweather hasn't fought a credible opponent in the last three years. This will be the toughest fight to date.Comment

Comparing Spinks to Mayweather is ****** IMO he is not even close yeah he is slick and this and that but hits like a strawweight and is just plain sorry IMO.......Also Mosley far from kicked DLH ass You could make a case for DLH winning both of those fights but I won't go there.I think Floyd/Zab will be a great test for both fighters and expect this to turn into a great trilogy.I want Judah but it is very hard to make a prediction I am going to say Zab by MD or something close I doubt anyone gets kOed they will both surely be very cautious of each other IMO.Originally posted by 2_piece_combosSpinks was as fast as Judah, and he had a better defense.

Whoa whoa whoa your losing me here...
Cong**** on watching both men come up thru the ranks, that makes you no different then thousands of members on this site-but cong**** anyways.
Ok where do I start, first off there is no bigger JL Castillo fan on this site then myself and I agree Floyd lost that fight but to call it a robbery may be a bit harsh-your point is taken however.
Now you say that Floyd could have lost to Augustus? WTF-Floyd did take some punishment on that beautiful KO Nation afternoon bout but he did so basically on purpose (he likes to mix it up with lesser opponents-example CORLEY)...AT NO TIME WAS FLOYD EVER IN DANGER OF LOSING THAT FIGHT-that is a fact!
Wow, you say Floyd lost to Vicky Sosa and that it was a bull**** decsion...cmon man-pm me and I will give you my cell number and during the next big fight you can call me and we can go over how you should score a fight...not even Sosa thinks he won that fight!Comment

But, he is a true welterweight. Like I said before you have every right to believe what you want. Spinks' style doesn't require him to sit down on his punches. He's a pure boxer. He's plays the thinkers game for 12 rounds. That's his style. Sweet Pea did the same thing, but if you REALLY know Whitaker you would know that when he did sit down on his punches he had a little pop. Also, are you implying that Mayweather has power? This is the same guy who had hand problems for years. Now, he uses Winning gloves (pillows), and he's supposed to be some big puncher?Originally posted by raesaadComparing Spinks to Mayweather is ****** IMO he is not even close yeah he is slick and this and that but hits like a strawweight and is just plain sorry IMO
Maybe in the second fight you can. The first fight should have been a UD for Mosley, hands down.Originally posted by raesaad.......Also Mosley far from kicked DLH ass You could make a case for DLH winning both of those fights but I won't go there.
Mayweather will have on his track shoes.Originally posted by raesaadI think Floyd/Zab will be a great test for both fighters and expect this to turn into a great trilogy.I want Judah but it is very hard to make a prediction I am going to say Zab by MD or something close I doubt anyone gets kOed they will both surely be very cautious of each other IMO.Comment
