    They won about the same number of rounds. The difference is that the majority of rounds Floyd won against Zab were considerably more one-sided than the rounds he won against Cotto.

    Agreed. Yes Zab was cracking Floyd with flush powershots.
    Zab was faster and had that southpaw stance, and scored
    a legit knockdown even though they didnt officially
    call it a knockdown. DLH was impressive wit the jab,
    and in his prime he would of dropped Mayweather with
    a rocket left hook.

    No he did not.


    He won the fight. But he also had to resort to nutpunching when Zab had him in trouble. Are you forgetting about that?

    Where did this thread even come from? On the judges scorecards, Cotto won exactly as many rounds against Mayweather as Judah did, and in my personal opinion both Cotto and Judah could have been given anywhere between 2 and 4 rounds in those fights.
    So is this thread supposed to suggest that Judah did better against Mayweather than Cotto? Based on what? Cotto was much more consistently dangerous throughout the fight and made Floyd work his ass off for every round he won. In NO round did Cotto get the **** beaten out of him as one-sidedly as Judah did from round 7 onwards.

    Oooooh, so you're suggesting that in fact Judah did more damage to Floyd because he hit Floyd when he was overextending himself and knocked him off-balance causing him to put a glove to the canvas. Glad to know where you're coming from.

    **** out of here what that soap opera ****. Zab was hoping up everytime Cotto went to his body. Like a scared rabbit. Watch how MEN deal with a low blow... I have Seen Cotto simply nod after getting hit in the nuts... ZAB is a *****...an actress end of story. Simple NOT strong enough mentally to EVER beat Cotto. EVER.

    Cotto hurt floyd much more than zab. Also this was a much better fight.

    DLH also lost a SD to Floyd, but then Cotto push Floyd the whole night, busted his mouth and nose. Made him fight his fight many times and loses by those ridiculous scorecards. Politics in boxing must I say:-(
