Why is/was Zab Judah ever so highly rated?

[GhostofDempsey]

For all the shyt people talk about Khan on here, Zab couldn't last 5 rounds with the glass jawed Khan. Each time he stepped up he lost, with the exception of two or three fights with Spinks, Matthysse and Witter. But Floyd beat him, so naturally his status gets elevated as an elite.

Zab did more offensively VS Floyd than manny did

Sneaking that Str8 left hand in

Knocking Floyd down with right hook

Landing some inside body shots

Hitting Floyd once or twice with left uppercut

Zab made Floyd work to figure him out

Floyd had manny under control and in the bag right from the opening bell

Yes
The fans got screwed out of a fight to see who was the better fighter. We found out what we already knew. Floyd is the best ever when it comes to defense.

Floyd had the golden moment to cement his career. He should have tried to beat the hell out of Manny in the later rounds. He would had the fans standing it would have been amazing, Yet he didn't. Why?????? Too bad.

He dropped Floyd and gave him a good fight so they have to lie and pretend he was some ATG. Every time I tuned in for a judah fight he lost.

He was dominated every second of that fight with Khan who I never rated very highly, Judah folded from the beginning but yes he has an unrecorded kd on Floyd so people rate him much higher than he deserves to be.
