    Just re-watched both fights since other then Shane Mosley Zab is the only guy both men fought and I noticed a few things..

    Zab had both men hurt bad in both fights and fought really well until he began to gas in the later rounds.

    Floyd took less punishment, but Miguel dished out more punishment.

    Floyd methodically picked Zab apart by walking him down, using his defense and landing lethal right hand leads and left hooks while Miguel overwhelmed Zab with strong combinations and powerful body shots.

    IMO Floyd was more dominant, BUT Cotto hurt Zab worse and got the stoppage..

    It's real close but I would say Floyd was more impressive due to the fact that he toyed with Zab from rounds 6-12 and took much less damage. I will say this though; If Miguel fights Floyd the way he did against Zab it's going to be a war come May 5th.

    As for Mosley.. Well IMO Floyd was more dominant but Miguel fought a much better version of Shane so it's hard to compare. That's for a whole other thread though.

    I agree except I don't think Zab had Floyd hurt... Stunned a few times yeah but he wasnt hurt or rocked like Cotto was.

    I agree I didn't see May noticeably hurt bad, but I'm just going by what Floyd said about Zab having him hurt worse then people thought.

    The Zab Khan beat was a greatly diminished version of the Zab Floyd and Miguel beat.

    He did land some nice ball busters on Zab, but that had nothing to due with the outcome of the fight.

    Sorry man , but if you have been in the ring and been punched there it takes a good few rounds just to get going again , by this point your opponent can break you down with correct punches. This is what happend in the Cotto fight for Zab.

    Just reminds me of what an exceptional talent Judah was.
    A little more heart, a little more dedication, and he could've been an ATG.

    Mayweather handled him better imo to answer your question.

    Your giving Zab Judah the benefit of the doubt after faking his supposed low blow against Khan? You are either a Cotto hater or Zab Judah. :yep
