The reason Nazim is so highly regarded

the man took a 37 year old past it boxer and destroyed the number 1 147 boxer in the world in his prime

the man took a 43 year old granddad and humiliated, disgraced and ruined the career of an undefeated fighter in his prime

 

Probably beacuse he saved boxers to fight a cheating Margarito with plaster in his gloves and discovered his cheat while other trainers could´nt, that´s one hell of an achievement, and on top of that he lead Mosley and Hopkins two upset victories.

 

What's not to love about the guy? He's a great trainer and says funny, memorable quotes. I can't imagine anyone disliking him he seems too likable for that.

 

I'm glad you brought this point up I been meaning to address it. Naz did nothing for mosley, and it's not NAZ fault it's just that when your mosley's age your not gonna learn new tricks your just gonna fight. He was in there with a man who's style was built for him, mosley at 50 could beat a prime Margarito. Magaritos style(coming foward) doesn't require him to use up any energy. Let's see what happens when he spends the first half of the fight chasing mayweather around and missing punches. By the second half of the round he will be tired and Floyd is gonna tap that ass

 

oops I forgot to mention him and BHop did come up with a plan to take away paviliks right hand and it worked so he gets props for that

 

I doubt Mosley would come up with clinching Margarito on his own so you have to give Nazim props for that strategy. I bet when Marg was clinched he was like "WTF!" because no one did that before.

 

The guy knows his stuff, but lets see him prove himself a little more before we go calling him the next Eddie Futch. They were saying the same thing about Buddy McGirt and that guy has disappeared off the face of the earth.

 

Watch in between rounds, the advise he gives, he is a good trainer, maybe not famous for his training methods, but he knows his boxing good enough to strategise.

and do u hear him talking **** like roger, Senior, and roach. got to respect that brother.

 

:huh takes the cake for being idiotic? I thought we were cool:| We used to play basketball together:nono

 

Let's judge him on what he does, not his appearance. Right now, his work with Mosley and Hopkins is solid. Therefore, his reputation is pretty much justified at the moment. He hasn't been at the helm long enough to deserve equal status with someone like Roach, but I see no reason to criticize or lowball the guy as yet.
