    The terms "Floored" and "knocked down" are used interchangeably, though by most people who follow, and indeed who write the sport. With that in mind, Floyd was "floored", even though the unofficial knockdown that he suffered was of the "flash" variety.

    And that, I think is a better way to ask the question: Was that knockdown a hard knockdown in any way, shape or form? Nope. Not at all. But his glove did touch the canvas as a result of a punch, and had it been called, it would have been a 10-8 round for Judah, more than likely.

    No he wouldn't have..Judah trained hard for that fight, especially after getting embarassed by Baldomir. Probably the hardest he ever trained. Mayweather was just to much for him.

    If by "floored" you mean "knocked down", then Yes. Some would argue he was floored in the Mosley fight, too. Twice!

    It was a flash KD. Should have been counted as such.

    It still wouldn't have changed the outcome of the fight. If anything he may have pressed Zab harder for a more definitive outcome.

    For the record, Hatton "floored" him too and it wasn't counted.
