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

[Queen_Leia]

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.

This post is ******** ******ed....have you ever watched Floyd fight? don't you know that Floyd MAKES ADJUSTMENT!!!

Eat ****.

Hatton was wrestling Floyd more so then pressuring him with punches. When Floyd decided to wrestle back Hatton was done. Yeah I know he doesnt have the legs or smarts to execute a gameplan that doesnt involve him walking straight at Floyd getting picked apart.

Naazim has extended Bernard Hopkins's career this far teaching him how to fight ugly but effective and use his natural strength, I'm sure he has a good idea how to do something similar with Mosley. He won't have Mosley just walking into Floyd's counter punches he will give Mosley something to work with. Again, Hatton had some success and he isn't half the fighter Mosley is, nor did he have a trainer like Naazim Richardson. At least for half the fight, Mosley would have success pressuring and using his strength to work in the clinches.

The fight would end up boring but its an interesting gameplan for SSM you have there Burner......it may catch Floyd off guard and take him out of his element as he seems perfectly content on the move and countering.

[BALLISTIC]

he just needs to land that lefthook he did on mayorga and margarito..thats all...

Yeah it might be worse then Direll-Stevens.

Mosley's only chance in this fight is to try and make it an ugly clutch and grab type affair, otherwise he's ****ed.

Floyd's got him beat in every category except power. Hand speed, foot speed, movement etc.


Asking Mosley at this stage of career to keep moving laterally is laughable.

He's never been a lateral movement type of guy to begin with. For him to try this now would be ******, he's neevr been that type of fighter and never will. Besides...he doesn't have the legs for it anymore.

His only chance is to try and B-Hop his way to a win. Make it boring and ugly and he's got a shot...otherwise he's in deep **** in this fight.

Thats what I mentioned in my post that he doesnt have the legs to do it. Grabbing and cluthcing Floyd would be suicide as well. Hes very and strong and one of the best inside fighters in boxing he can make you miss and get his shots off thisclose to you. Shane is in deep **** period...lol.

Crazy to think Shane doesn't manhandle Floyd clinching. Floyd may be stronger than given credit for but he has nothing on Mosley.

Stopped there. Fail. Shane isn't a counterpuncher.
