    Probably a lot closer but Zab still fades late on and finds a way to lose with his mentality.

    The 01 Judah gives him a hard time but Floyd would probably win either by late tko or a close decision, 115-113 or something like that. Man Judah had skills I'll give em that.

    Floyd peaked at 140 also, Judah likely doesn't see the final bell (which he shouldn't of in their actual bout).

    Not much difference at all from what happened in their fight.

    PBF beats him again, although Judah was much better before Zoo, he was never great, Floyd would've always beat him.

    Floyd, by a closer margin though. Talent-wise Judah may have been a tad bit superior to Mayweather, but Floyd will always have him in the skills and discipline departments.

    I dont think Judah ever had the elite mindset. He had the skills, but not the heart and chin. Same outcome

    The 140 version of Floyd that fought Gatti would have beaten Zab by late TKO.

    Zab at 140 was a little more swashbuckling and confident.

    Judah today does "gas" but he also mentally implodes...because a couple of ko losses has created self doubt in him..whereas this wasnt an issue at 140 before Kostya got to him.

    I reckon Zab pushes the fight a bit more...and does even better in the earlier rounds then he did in the 147 fight.

    But ultimately that sees him get stopped later in the fight..I think once Floyd figures him out and finds his rhythm, Zab wont clam up and dog it to the degree he did in the 147 fight..He will try to turn the fight with a bomb and generally have a go a bit more...Which eventually sees him take one to many to the chin and Zippity babbity boom boo he gets stopped.

    I love Zab, but man he would have gotten stopped by 140 Mayweather. It would have been a much more brutal first 6 rounds.
