    "I expect Shane to come out and hit Mayweather in the mouth with a right hand and I expect Mayweather to sprout a tail, grow wings, and turn into a dragon, then I will tell Shane to stay out of the fire."

    Does that mean treat Floyd like a puncher? It's the strategy I've been always mentioning because so few fighters are prepared to view him as such, and I think Naz right there was ready to attack early, catch him, then evade tactically. Side-stepping and stepping on his tail, he says...

    Ya no one respects him as a puncher, and i think your interpretation of Naz words is pretty accurate. I think Naz had a good strategy for the fight but Shane just wasn't up to it physically or mentally.

    Every fighter has weaknesses. The difference with Floyd is that you can hit him with one punch, but that punch is taken away from there on out.

    However, you thinking Cotto is going to beat Floyd? Hilarious.

    Nah, Shane just don't have the right style against Floyd. Shane's a slugger with no jab. No way could he try to treat a master boxer like Floyd as if Floyd was the puncher.

    I love this Diaz guy. He seems to leave no stone unturned when it comes to strategy and preparation. Thanks for the translation...can't believe it's less than a month away.

    Thanks for the translation, Bogo. I would like to know what he saw in the Ortiz fight he feels Cotto can use to his advantage (without Floyd knowing what he's trying to do, and taking it straight away)

    I thought Diaz came off too confident as well ..But with his preperation I won't question him ..He will have the last laugh if Cotto pulls this off .
