Lyakhovich certainly didn't look good against Briggs, though I think that's partly because the Cannon rung his bell early.
Or maybe it was because he never looked good in his life except against a fat, injured Lamon Brewster?
If that's your opinion, that's fine. I happen to think he'd do pretty well against the three current champions not named Wladimir Klitschko. He should beat Valuev when he fights him...I think Peter would probably lose to 7-footer.
Even if he does beat Bigfoot, so what? John Ruiz, Larry Donald and Ruslan Chagaev pretty much had their way with him. I would be shocked if that freak beat Peter legitimately.
He was undisputed World Welterweight Champion and pehaps the most talented boxer of his generation. I think that the hype is what made him a non-factor.
I agree with your sentiments that he shouldn't be mentioned in this thread..............but by "his generation" you mean "his family"........right? I agree. Zab IS better then Daniel Judah. ::
Zab Judah is just as talented as Floyd Mayweather, if not more. He simply lacks the intelligence, drive, heart and dedication.
....skills, brains, timing...basically every single thing besides handspeed. Judah's "talent" is as overrated as Lacy's power.
