Mosley should try to bully Mayweather the way Hatton tried to.

    Agreed. Floyd's ring smarts are second to none Coach which is why Mosley has to try and take away his ability to think and just react by applying constant pressure even if it means eating some shots. I'm confident in SSM chin. If you give Floyd a chance to think you're done.

      This fight should be interesting. I'm very curious as to how Richardson will develop the game-plan for this fight. This may very well be one of his approaches.

        That's what I'm interested in. I think ****m is better than even Roach and can't wait to see his gameplan. Though I'm still favoring Mayweather in this fight at the moment, I'm really curious as to what Richardson's going to bring to the table.

              But what are some better options? Surely he can't box with him. I think he needs to bully him on the inside, clinch and repeat.

That way he can just sit on his punches in the later rounds and not worry so much about his feet since May will be tired. It's important to not let May rest on the ropes either. Though, you're right this method has been tried before and failed I was just thinking since Mosley was a better athlete than May's other opponents and had a better chin that it might be effective.
                I don't see Mayweather getting tired. I think Mosley's chin allows him to do more than Floyd's previous opponents. I do think, no matter what anyone says, that if Mosley attacks too wild and leaves himself open, he will get dropped by a punch he didn't see coming.

Mosley is bigger, faster, and stronger and than Hatton so it should have a better effect and his chin is iron so I don't see him suffering the same fate. I really think it's his best shot.
                  If Mosley does try to bully Mayweather will win by easy KO check hook...

                    theres not much he can do tbh Floyd uses angles to well for someone who isn't as sharp as Mosley is...

                      If I was Nasim My gameplan would be this.

                      I would back up the whole fight. Make Floyd come to me and take away his countering abilities. Not try to out box him but switch it up and RUN from him so to speak. I would have Shane all over the ring moving NON STOP and when Floyd commits to a punch you better catch his ass. You have to do something to throw Floyd off. Trying to outbox him or maul him will get you embarrassed. Just move , move and move some more. Also 80% of his punches should be jabs to the body and head. Then move some more. It wont be pretty but just keep moving eventually Floyd will have to come forward then try to make him pay. Make it a god awful UGLY fight and hope for a decision.
