Question About Zab's Punching Power.

Zab's punching power is above average at 140, but average at 147... simple as that... It's like Cotto takes longer to break people down at 147, than he did at 140... If he were to go up to 154 as some thing he would in the future, I don't think he'd stop much people up there. Mayweather's punching power was decent at lower weights, but at 147 he can't break an egg... It's simple Physics...:deal

 

weren't you picking zab to beat cotto because he was so 'powerful' and 'explosive' and a great 'finisher'

 

You ask me or the poster??

 

So since you say that Sugar is no Judah, you pick Sugar early on this fight??

 

He can definatly crack plus his speed enables him to catch guys with shots that they don't see coming. He just relies way too much on that left hand.

 

:deal

If Cotto feels he can take Mosley's best shot during the first couple of rounds we will see a long term stoppage in favor of Cotto. If he sees that Mosley has too much power to stand constant banging, you will see Cotto fight much more tactically and spending time counter punching... Something that carachterized his style early on on his career, and that we haven't seen in a while because he hasn't had the need to use it in his latest fights. Some people forget that Cotto used to come with a "peek-a-boo" type defense that was really hard to break through, and if he needs to use it, he will use it. Cotto by late stoppage or UD...

 

:thumbsup

 

he has real good power and like someone else said his speed enables him to catch them off guard which helps.......i think his ko of cosme showed he had some serious power after berto not even hurting him.......i think hes lost some though

 

Definately a fight for the ages will unfold come November 10... We are lucky enough to have the opportunity to be witnesses!

 

Look if you cannot look at Judah and admit he has AWESOME power in his punches you really need to either:

a: watch more boxing, you clearly have not seen enough
or
b: stop watching boxing because you clearly dont recognize talent when you see it

Now my favorite part, lets look at the facts:

-Zab was the only fighter that i know of who knocked mayweather down (and yes it was not officially scored a knockdown, but if you honeslty believe that was not a knockdown i really do not want to discuss boxing with you)

-He also stunned kosta very badly in their fight with one left uppercut, Kosta has a solid chin (i know he lost that fight, but rememeber we are talking about punching power here. Hatton did not affect kosta like that with one punch, it took him a long beatdown and Kosta was older in that fight)

-Knocked out Cosmo Rivera in one round (lets see Joel Julio took him the full 12 and Andre Berto took him the full 12 as well, do u claim they do not have power either? because if you claim judah does not neither do they and you are an idiot simply for stating that)

-hurt cotto, have not really seen many do that to Cotto except for only torres and corley. We know Torres has power and corley too (remember Corley hurt mayweather in thier fight)

-knocked out cory spinks - Mayorga is the only other fighter to knock him down (Mayorga should have won that fight imo, the fact they were called slips is BS), but not out. Zab judah knocked him out. Mayorga has power, remember he knocked out forest.

 

i like zab, and i might have to agree he hasn't been the same since he fought tzsyu...but also...he hasn't been focused on boxing. everytime a boxer starts bein seen in music videos, everywhere on t.v., making music. they always lose...which makes me sad that mayweather is going to be on the next dancing w/ the stars!!
