Zab still isn't good enough to beat the top dogs at 140.

    no it wasn't he looked like the 99cent store version of sweet pea, he doesn not have those reflexes to pull that off, mabuza sucks he got lucky, that wont work against bradley or alexander.

    I still think Zab will defeat Khan... Im even having second thoughts on Devon, close one though if they ever fought...

    Are you kidding? He was putting on a Ring Generalship clinic!

    The dude looked good, but I wanted more offense.

    I think right now Zab beats Devon, because Devon can't handle speed and people who know how to time.

    He definitely had the reflexes to pull it off and he did, there was no luck about what he did to Mabuza, that was all skill. He didn't trade with him and was setting him up for a counter while he was on his way in all night.

    What he did would definitely work on Alexander, Bradley would be a touch matchup for him though.

    Realy??? Did u see that knockout punch? cause i didn't! Mabuza said Zab Caught him wih a punch he didn't see,and he was standing right in front of him! Zab was baiting him all night with the angles and the jab. and when it was time to use the speed u see the results! Although Mabuza clearly didn't... hahaha

    2 knockouts in his last 3 fights... nobody at 140 can beat him except maybe maidana. styles make fights! the only reason zab hasn't been looking spectacular is because he's fighting all these rugged pressure fighters that clash with his style! khan,Bradley,Alexander and Ortiz are boxers, So zab lights them up easy.Only boxer he's ever lost to is mayweather! spinks

    Bradely-Zab counters him all night,dropes him a couple times.UD Judah.

    Khan-Back and forth fight,khan slightly up on cards til he gets droped around the 10th round.

    Alexander-Tko for zab,Alexander is just garbage hasn't beaten anybody.

    Ortiz-Ortiz is game he'll hang around and lose a UD.

    P.s Zab power clearly transcends at 140.2 out of three! Guard ya grill Khan!

    Zab is still fast, but not like he used to be. In his prime, Zab was faster than Khan, but he still has good power, just needs to open up more

    Matthysse is a beast, Mabuza was a tough guy and a tough fight for Zab to take. Zab can hang with anyone at 140lbs, Zab's still got speed, power and I Whitaker improved Zab's game.

    Khan I think would be the toughest for him though, Khan also has the benefit of having Pacquiao as a sparring partner.

    Sparring partners don't mean ****, Khan sparring with Pac didn't mean **** when he was holding on for dear life against Maidana.

    I want to see Amir fight matthysse, that would be funny.

    Zab can beat anybody with one left. Unfortunately top fighters usually neatralise it and then he's stuffed. I'd stick pick Khan with Freddie in his corner.

    Zab would give anyone at 140 a good fight at the moment.

    Will be interesting 2c who he fights next.

    I don't think Maidana is proven to be a bigger puncher than either of Judahs last 2 opponents

    Khan probably beats Judah on workrate, but Judah has the power and speed to beat him and is a level above anyone Khans faced.

    Judah should beat Alexander, Bradley, Maidana for me, hes allot better than all 3, its just if he keeps focused and his workrate up
