    Most fighters cant jab to the body anymore, let alone follow it up with a overhand right that lands against one of the greatest defensive boxers ever.

    It may be a time and tested combo but its certainly not easy to execute when most fighters today cant even even land body jabs.

    Nothing to do with the point however. It remains a weakness in Floyds game. said it before the fight and Nazim reiterated by studying film. It was not a spur of the moment type thing. Mosley tried to land it throughout the fight but couldnt because Mayweather adjusted.

    Still doesnt take away the fact that Nazim devised a strategy that nearly led to Floyds defeat. Stop being a douche for being a douches sake.


    Btw, if you dont get Nazims metaphors I cant help you there either.


    Naz correctly predicted that once Mosley caught Mayweather that Floyd would open up ala "spit fireballs" that Floyds a fighter and will fight when he trouble.

    I mean these arent difficult metaphors.

    This is true mosley was really trying to knock him out he just couldnt, at the end of that round all of his confidence went down the drain.
    He tried that same basic move a few times after that but floyd would just trap him then hit him with a left hook. He was done after round 2.

    No doubt about Richardson, he is a very good trainer and a sound cornerman.

    Question is . . . can Mosley still deliver and pull the trigger when it's needed?

    Team Pac is not stupid to plan an early attack in this fight. They'll try to drag this to the middle rounds to the late rounds where Mosley is expected to be less dangerous.

    Having said that . . . my guess is . . . this fight will end up in a decision for Pac.

    Shane isn't winning this fight without access to:

    1) Roids
    2) A time machine

    He does that in every fight. Margarito smiles when he gets hit to show his Mexican warrior spirit or whatever. Did it against Cintron and Cotto. He gets hit the other guy backs away, he jogs forward. Only difference is when he jogged to Mosley he got another ass whipping.
    :lol: You're a moron. Margarito fights one way. What changed in his strategy. What changed in the way he fights. Nothing. He comes forward looks to outmuscle the opponent. If anything hed' want to win to show the wraps didnt mean anything.

    Mosley whips Margarito with bricks in his gloves. He got his ass whipped by an ATG, an athletically superior stronger fighter. He wasnt in there with a guy he could outmuscle and out tough, and that is margaritos only strength.

    I hope Pac comes out fighting. Its Mosleys only chance and the only chance of this fight being competitive.

    Mosley benefited from Floyd coming forward in there fight. If Manny boxes Mosley has no shot.

    That's one thing, yeah, but Roger Mayweather completely outsmarted him. He proved he's a more versatile trainer and, honestly, I don't rate Mayweather at all as a trainer. He was a better fighter.
    I understand every metaphor he uses but instead of sounding pithy, he sounds like he's trying to make an impression. If you're going to use metaphors, it's probably better not to put them in a sentence like "Yo, man, this dude...he's a serious fighter, man, you know, he's a tough kid. We gonna have to step on that dragons tail and shoot fireballs, you know what I mean, man?".

    He sounds like a moron who has just discovered 'Dungeons and Dragons'.

    I think floyd could have stopped mosley but he isnt offensive enough to do it.
    If mosley doesnt land that hail mary punch he will get punished more with every added rounds, I really dont see pac ko'ing him but towell or the ref stepping in are the most logical options, pac tko 7!

    marg simply got his AZZ beat. No one would take that kind of punishment Mosley gave marg if they had the skills to prevent it from happening.

    We see the same ol **** when a "motivated" marg fights emmanuel and has no way to stop all that punishment he's taking.

    Only difference is emmanuel style and power weren't as good as Mosley's for fighting marg.

    The Mosley that fought Margo was on PEDS no doubt about it.... If that version of Mosley fought against Floyd maybe he'd still lose but not like a total shutout after the 2nd round...

    Roger has the better fighter. Nothing to do with being the more versatile trainer. Nazim gave his fighter through teaching the best chance of beating Floyd Iv'e seen since Castillo 1. Mosley had his chance and didnt capitalize. What would Naz have told Mosley afterwards that would have made a difference in the fight. Nothing. Mayweather was the stronger man, the faster fighter, and smarter fighter. The fact that Nazim devised a strategy for Mosley to nearly get Floyd early is a testament to his skill as a trainer. There are very few trainers that can actually impact a fight through strategy. Naz is one of them.




    Its gained him mass popularity as a trainer. I've actually seen videos with his quotes in em.

    Exactly I cant understand those that say Margaritos head wasnt in the fight. Like he forgot his jab or didnt move his head. :lol:

    Need I remind people, when most were talking about how small Manny was and how welters could possibly overpower him that Nazim was the first to say that you had to treat Manny like a big man because he fights like one.
