    Floyd's elbow in top gif, truly remarkable elbow. It has moved some of the top boxers' heads into position for such a long time now it should be made legal to use the elbow as he does, even the elbow to the throat tactic. Maybe the young boxers will learn from this. What am I saying? Juanma has a great elbow as well!

    where did i say "manny is dumb" ... i dont think he is as big of a methodical thinker as judah tries to be.... if you come in like a stupid **** against floyd... i dont care who you are... you are going to get counter punched to death ... you need to be a thinker to beat floyd... i personally dont think manny is a big thinker in the ring

    if you include the knockdown of mayweather that was ignored the fight was closer than the cards reflected BUT the fight is 12 rounds not 6. Mayweather will always be far, far smarter ring wise and Judah's talent (which is superior to mayweathers) could not and would never compensate for his immaturity. If he could fight all 12 rounds well, he just wouldn't be Zab Judah.

    Judah is a four round fighter that is why he did so good early in the fight.

    Judah has a Glass Jaw, no heart, no stamina, is mentally fragile, and has the worst trainer in the sport not named Buddy McGirt.

    Not even. Floyd knew the fight was a 12 rounder and knew he had time to get comfortable in there. Had this been a 4 rounder, those first 3 rounds would've been alot tougher on Zab :deal

    You just told me that Zab is a better thinker than PAC so that makes Pac dumb. Zab (if you have watched his career) and the word THINK doesnt jive. Pac thinks more than people give him credit for. And if you know what not to come in to Floyd, why dont you call Roach to share him that info.

    great fight often overlooked b/c it didnt end in a KO. This fight showed how body work can break a guy down.

    Random fact about this fight: this is my favorite Floyd fight and if you watch the whole fight I think its after the 7, 8, 9, rounds Yoel whispers in Zabs ear so the HBO mics couldnt hear him. A few rounds later, Zab connects w/ the infamous low blow. Coincidence? Doubt it.

    Judah had 2 good rounds that entire fight. It's amazing a fighter can get so much credit for 2 good rounds.
