    Now first of all.. I'm a big fan of both PBF and Cotto..

    PBF against Judah was incredible.. Judah was scared to throw punches as everytime he tried to throw Mayweather was landing..

    Now against Cotto Judah was getting hit too.. but at the same time he was landing some big shots on Cotto..

    Using this analysis I worry that Cotto's will to fight will make him susceptible to getting hit more than Judah did against Floyd but he'll also miss more shots against PBF which would've otherwise landed on Judah..

    I'm not trying to be a prediction queen.. its just how I saw it.. I could easily be wrong..

    :good

    Although not as definitive of an ending, Floyd had a MUCH easier night with Judah than Cotto did.

    You notice the pattern with Guru?

    He only comes out when Floyd looks like he might have to challenge a live opponent, where he vehemently criticises his potential oppositions ability to save his lover boy from punishment.

    i'll tell you what...

    from the first 4 rounds of the fight, i though judah had a chance to actually school floyd, and skill for skill, he could've....but somewhere down the line, like always, judah crumbled and ****ed it all up...i gave judah 4 clear rounds, plus a 10-8 one for the knockdown round....i think it was alot closer than what people make it out to be....

    against cotto, judah did land some good punches every now and then...but never did i feel he was actually leading on the cards how i felt around the 6th or 7th of the floyd vs judah fight....

    I really think Zab was more confident against Mayweather than he was against Cotto, at least in the early going. Mayweather took away Judah's confidence and broke him down to the point where Zab almost got himself DQ'd (and almost won via DQ thanks to Roger being a hot head).

    Zab was flopping all over the floor and acting in round 1 after a shot strayed a little low. The 3rd round low blow was legit and cringeworthy, but Zab was trying to oversell it in round 1, and constantly looked at the ref all night long.

    Zab was a game loser, as he kept trying, but I don't think his confidence was there. Sort of like Tyson versus Lewis. Take your beating like a man and hope to catch him with something big, but from the start they seemed rather low on confidence.

    Judah won a couple of rounds after that after seriously hurting Cotto. If Judah threw more leather he could have taken Cotto but thats the story of Judahs career

    The difference is that Cotto completly destroyed Judah, beating him up so bad he was pissing blood afterwards, had both eyes puffed up, blood dripping from under his glasses at the press conference and was knocked the **** out. Floyd beat him on points using his superior defensive skills. Cotto was more impressive.

    cotto's win was more blood thirsty but floyds was imo more impressive. zab was too scared against cotto but for the first few rounds he was doing very well because he was faster the floyd, and he did knock him down, however minor, but floyd figured out how to get around judahs speed and then dominated him for the rest of the fight and he probably would have stopped him late if not for the mini riot

    Cotto was wobbled, rocked and had a whole ripped in his face. If you call that more impressive than not being wobbled, rocked and having a clean face after the bout I don't understand you.

    Against Mayweather Judah finished on his feet, in good health, ready for another big fight.
    After Cotto Judah was simply finished, shot, never to be recycled again.
