    Judah had all the talent, and was giving Mayweather ( who's much better than Crawford) fits for 5 rounds.
    He's also a natural 140/147er unlike the midget Gamboa who gave Crawford problems.

    Of Course Judah will present problems but Crawford solves the puzzle UD Zab.

    Who knows though different era small punchers chance Judah clips TC. Just seems to me Judah would find a way to lose

    Prime Zab is a speed fighter but timing beats speed. Bud UD in a competitive fight.

    Probably true. I wouldn't count Zab out in this one but chances are he finds a way to lose even if he starts off really well and appears to have the fight in the bag.

    Zab's speed and power make him very dangerous for Crawford early, and Crawford is probably behind on points after 6. But then Bud takes over, and probably stops Zab late.

    Zab "looked good for 5 rounds" and Gamboa "looked good for 3 rounds." Unfortunately for both Championship bouts go 12 and neither was around a nut cutting time. No one really cares how "good you look" if you get stopped. Crawford would punish Zab from round 5 until 12 or until Zab got stopped.

    I cant see Judah on form losing to Crawford just yet from what ive seen. It will be technical, and skill wise Judah is more than capable of pushing back the Crawford challenge imo..

    Zab Judah was an amazing athlete.
    He was one that could blow hot and cold though.
    When on form, I don't think there are many around his weight that would have beaten him.
    I think we forget how long ago Zabs prime was.

    On form. I would go for prime Zab to win inside schedule.

    I always felt that if Zab and Tsyzu had of fought 10 times, that Zab would have won 9 of those times and always felt that ko was Tsyzus best moment in his career

    Zab is too mentally weak to beat a guy like crawford who will keep coming. Zab will eventually melt down like he always does in big fights.

    I really think that depends on the Zab that shows.
    How do we know Crawford doesnt come at Zab and get caught by one of Zabs great uppercuts and knocked out?
    I dont think Crawford would beat the WW Cotto that Zab lost to but Zabs heart was no way in question in that fight and Cotto was coming at him all the time.
    I really did rate Zab when he was on form. Very fast and gifted boxer.
    Crawford hasnt yet given me any reason to think he would have beaten the Judah that beat Corley or Spinks or the Judah that pushed Floyd and Cotto.

    Always say massive credit to Floyd taking that fight when he could have passed it by
