Comments Thread For: Pacquiao's Adviser Not Worried Zab Helping Mayweather

[Cinci Champ]

zab judah beat floyd jr in their fight I had zab winning the fight.this wont help duckweather jr at all since zab is old and shot to hell zab doesn't have the speed he used to have.algieri used zab as a sparring partner and that obviously didn't help him against Pacquiao.

lol just stop

lol people are debating sparing partners its ridiculous no one is like manny and manny aint gonna find anyone like floyd besides in stance only

To be honest,I don't t see Floyds benefits,in using Judah as a sparring partner. Alright,he's southpaw, so what? That'd like saying that Pacquiao should use any orthodox fighter to train for mayweather. Judah fights nothing like Manny,and at this point,I don't think that zab is 65% of what he used to be. Same can be said for corely,he's way past it in terms of physical prime,so Floyd would be using old slow southpaws to replicate Manny's style. On the other hand,Roach is bringing in young,slick boxers,who utilize the shoulder roll,in order to get a feel of the kind of movement that Floyd might bring.

Similar stature and the Stance is the same. No one said Zab is PAC's doppelgänger but having a really fast southpaw who can mimic a double jab straight left while coming in or stutter stepping can and will help IMO... Also Zab has good power, it Makes sense to me.

Yet people constantly reference Floyd's early moments against Judah as if the Pacquiao fight will be similar since he is a southpaw...

To be fair, If Pac doesn't fight like Judah (in the first 3-4 rounds of that fight), then he won't keep Mayweather in range.

p4p dumbest poster here

name calling doesn't make what I said not true

P.S. never even heard of ya pal

Stop making mountains out of molehills gesh. Chop Chop Corley is also in camp with him. He doesn't fight like Pacquiao either and?

Lenardo Tyner was in camp for Keith Thurman for the Guerrero fight. Does that mean he fought like Guerrero who's s southpaw? NO

Guys are brought into sparring for a variety of reasons. It's not always apples to apples

Sparring partners are brought in for a variety of reasons. He still has a dang good straight left hand and a right hook. You don't need a 100% Zab to get good sparring in with because a 100% Zab is not the caliber of fighter you spar for an entire camp if you want to be relatively healthy by the end of camp.

You guys are supposed to be boxing fans. Can you use your heads? No shyt he could easily go get a bum ass copy of Manny Pacquiao like Gesta. He obviously isn't lacking for resources, but would a copy of Manny Pacquiao be able to hang with Mayweather for an entire camp scompared to a former world champ like Zab? That's why you bring in a variety of guys that do different things. That's why they have more than one sparring partner.
