    Is the Mosley-Richardson card OVERPLAYED on here?

    I think it is. Ill admit he is great trainer BUT........

    The last time he was with Shane in a fight was a year ago. Now Im sure they been sparring, training or what not but Floyd is not Margarito. He wont be standing in front of Shane smiling begging to be hit.

    Floyd is the best fighter that Shane has ever faced. PERIOD. I think that the chemistry needed for great Trainer-Fighter relationships isn't there with Richardson and Shane. They only been together one fight vs. a punching bag. Anyone remember the Clottey-Marg fight when Clottey couldn't miss him the first 4 rounds. Yeah well i do. Marg is a punching bag.

    I dont think the chemistry will be there vs. Floyd. Shane might try to be different but you cant teach an old dog new tricks. Hell sometimes you cant teach a young dog new tricks (see-Taylor and Steward).

    Shane is a self admited Brawler. Now he wants to out box Floyd. He'll try but after he starts getting tagged he'l resort back to his wild swinging ways.

    So given that they been together ONE fight vs. a punching bag is the Richardson angle overplayed?

      Floyd is also past his prime. So you dont think Richardson can be a big help?

            First of all, you're an idiot.

            Second I don't think its overplayed I think they have a genuine chemistry.

            I thought so while watching the Margo fight.

            Excellent advice and he was following it very well.

            I still think Floyd wins.

            I just never count out warriors like Mosley.

                Man, a great gameplan can make a world of a difference.

                Just look at every rematch where a boxer tries different tactics against the same opponent and they get much better results.

                  Mosley is Mosley. He was the same fighter in the Marg fight that he was in every fight.

                    You're looking at it that way because you can't see how Mosley would have looked trained by someone else.

                    A fighter's style doesn't usually change, his tactics can. I'm 100% sure there's gonna be things that ****m will see in Mayweather that Jack Mosley wouldn't have. And Richardson will gear the training camp to try to exploit that.
