    If Shane wants to beat Floyd he should try this gameplan:

    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. Almost go into Cory Spinks mode and just dont stop moving.


    Again not trying to outbox him just try to make him uncomfortable and make him think. Make him the aggressor and counter him. Moving non stop would drop Floyds accuracy way down and would give Shane more opportunities to land. Again doing it this way would make it the one of the most boring and ugliest fights in history but he will have a chance to win a decision with that handspeed. Keep backing up enough and Floyd will try to shoot the leaping left hook if Shane can catch him we'd have a fight. The judges wouldnt know what to do. It would be a hard fight to score. Now can Shane move with his legs. I doubt it.


    But standing in one spot trying to outbox him or just trying to maul him will get Shane embarrassed.

    Floyd had no trouble walking down Judah, who's just as fast if not even faster than Shane is and is a Southpaw to boot. Zab is a better pure counter puncher than Shane is too.

      Expect shane to be doing more foot movement than mayweather in this fight. when hes in the middle of the ring i expect him to move a little side to side and flick his jab looking for openings. i think mayweather will have to lead most of the time, not neccesarily chase mosley but he will b e leading most of the fight. thats how their styles will mesh in my honest opinion.

        Judah was very competitive in the opening rounds though. Though it might be his southpaw stance like you mentioned.

          SHANE just needs to be SHANE and he will kill FLOYD inside 3 rounds.

            Key difference:

            Judah gasses and has the mental capacity of a 10 year old after 4 or 5 rounds. Thats when Floyd stalked him with his hands up. He does against Southpaws for a reason because the shoulder roll doesnt work against Leftiues. Vs. Shane who wouldnt be tired it wouldnt work IMO.

                I still don't think Shane would be good enough at it to actually win. If Shane were to take your advice, I think you would witness a dominate Mayweather jab, while Shane would struggle to connect... at all.

                  You want Shane to run and hope Floyd becomes the aggressor?

                    I expect Shane to have Plans all the way up to D. He will have to try out different things and mix things up the whole fight to try to come out with a decision. I like the idea of trying to make Floyd brin the fight but it will all be about adjusments. That's the real reason Floyd wins his fights. He can catch on to what you are doing in one round and counter that.
