It may sound crazy, but I would tell Mosley to stay in Mayweather's face, pressure him, but don't go crazy throwing punches. I would want to force Mayweather into throwing punches instead of waiting for Mosley to do so, it would make Floyd a little uncomfortable and perhaps lure him into a brawl in spurts. Mosley wins those.
Mosley is a devestating body puncher, so I'd work on his left hook to the body. That, speed, and combos. Floyd might duck the first punch, but if Shane throws 3 punch or more combo, Floyd will get hit.
Left jab, left jab, head movements, work the body. Clinch after every flurry landed. Throw power punches in the second part of the fight and try to score a late KO.
hatton gave mayweather alot of trouble,lol haha,have you actually seen the fight???
Yeah I have. Hatton was getting tagged with those straight right hands from Floyd but that was it for the first half of the fight. Hatton made Mayweather the most uncomfortable I've seen him in recent history and Mayweather had to stay moving back for must of the fight until Hatton gassed and was caught with the check left.
Lead Left Jabs, Lead Left Uppercuts, Lead Left Hooks...from different angles. Mayweather likes that SHOULDER ROLLS and DUCKING (no puns but it's up to you, hehehhee) and FADES....
A well-timed left could unleash the water like the floodgates.
The lunging Left Uppercut would be devastating....if SHANE can corner him.
Hatton gave Mayweather a lot of trouble with his pressure, as did chavez. Chavez was taking too many clean uppercuts and Hatton was getting tagged with straight rights, but Mosley's chin is strong enough to be able to walk past those shots IMO.

Guys like Hatton, Gatti and Chavez all pressured without a jab. You can't just walk in, you have to give Mayweather something to think about at all times.

Every fighter who's ever tried to pressure Mayweather has had to deal with some accurate and sometimes devistating counterpunches. If there's anyone at 147 that can walk past that and keep the pressure on Floyd it's Mosley. Mosley's chin is the key to success, it's probably the best in boxing and if he can walk through Mayweather's shots i give him a good chance of winning a hard fought decision.

Mayweather is going to wait and try to counter so I'd attack with a jab. De la Hoya's jab was most successful when he jabbed to his shoulder and chest because Mayweather can't slip that. That would keep Mayweather's lunges in check and allow Mosley to get his punches off.
Body punching will be key also because you don't want Mayweather moving at full speed while you're wearing down. His movement will bedazzle you.
Force Mayweather into a fast-paced, physical confrontation where Mayweather can't think and dictate what he wants to do.
Give him angles: Mayweather is a master at making you miss the first punch nd then exploiting that angle to make you miss repeatedly. If he ducks one and doesn't move his feet, pivot, go to another angle and catch him out of position.
How to beat Floyd
I im the trainer of the great welterweight Mosley this is wat i gonna say and coach him:
Floyd has a forward stance: means his facing you leaning forward at the time you punch him he gonna counter you and then lean backward which is hard to hit.
Next is that Floyd after he punch you back lean backward and then move to your side leaning his head down while doing that; means its hard to hit him.
My advice to Mosley:
Use your jab to set up your knocking punch, at the time you jab get away his counter punch at the same time move forward and release you KO straight Punch if he get away follow up with a damaging hook to the side because that Floyd usual movement. Not to worry if you miss that in few try but the end you will hit him.
Im not finished yet
If you able to set your power punch on that way released another 123 anywhere you hit; A sure KO win for you Shane; Lets Pratice this move......
Fixed game plans don't work with Floyd . He is very clever and works out what is going on and can adapt and change in the middle of a fight. Shane has to be equally flexible with multiple options. Going in with a fixed game-plan against Mayweather is fatal.
I think Mosley has about as good of a plan as I have seen any of Floyds previous opponents. He's not talkin about pressure fighting, he's talkin about mixing it up, being physical and doing some boxing. Sounds good in theory.....
Whatever his plan is there is no doubt that shane is gonna take ALOT of punches in this fight, if he keeps coming forward and goin to the body thats his best shot at winning
Proof you cant see how Mosley can beat Mayweather
Mosley can win if he gets some power shots on floyd's chin AND I WANT TO SEE HIM give floyd some punishment, but floyd is just gonna throw 1 punch/jab and RUN, throw 1 punch/jab and run the whole night. That's why I think mosley should just go rambo on floyds hips so he can't run all night.
