you also have to look at how they beat them, they both completely dominated there fights offensively and defensively.....look at how good mosleys jab was, before it was the worst....even people that thought mosley and hopkins would win (yours truly) didnt expect they would look as good as they did....
****m Richardson - 1 Trick Pony?

Do you specialize in being a dumb ass?Im not for one minute claiming he is, i dont know much about him other than he was the master mind behind Hopkins triumph over Pavlik and Mosley's Annialation of MargaCheato! He was also great in the corner in those fights!
Note tho that Pavlik and Marg while top fighters with power and durability were both tall straight at you slow basic predictable fighters who do the same thing every time out and seem incapable of change. Thats not a diss either they just are.
So does ****m only specialize in defeating this one style, is that were his strategic brilliance ends? Or is there many more tricks left in this guys bag?
Like i said im just curious, i think he looks the goodsComment

I've ALWAYS said the best trainer in boxing is Floyd Sr. FOLLOWED REALLY CLOSELY by ****m Richardson.
B-Hop is great but those gameplans he had for Pavlik, Trinidad, Tarver were all Tarver. Watch the countdown to Pavlik Hopkins on youtube and watch now much Hopkins relies on ****m Richardson. At one point when they are watching film of Pavlik Hopkins looks at ****m and ask "****, what am I gonna do with that powerful right hand......" ****m looks at Hopkins and says " We'll put that in the same drawer as Trinidads left hook, I'll tell what we're gonna do"
Oh see also................

I love that quote, I didn't even hear it during the Countdown show. In that scene, though, I believe Hopkins only asked that question for the cameras since it seemed like such bad acting. I have hard time believing that was the first time Hopkins and Richardson ever discussed what to do with Pavlik's right hand." We'll put that in the same drawer as Trinidads left hook, I'll tell what we're gonna do"Comment

He's not a one trick pony coz the way Pavlik and Marge were defeated are totally different. Bernard went from side to side making Pav miss. While Mos would move forward and backed Marge up. So he trained both differently according to thier styles even thos Pav and Marge were similar on some points.Comment
