      Here are some excerpts:

      -----------

      His trainer-uncle doesn’t dispute it, calling Mosley “dangerous” and credits the Californian for his “endurance, willingness to fight and speed.”

      In an interview during which he detailed the essential fight strategy, Roger Mayweather acknowledged Mosley must attempt to use strength and aggression to derail the Mayweather box-pop-and-frustrate strategy, which has led the Grand Rapids native to a 40-0 record and the pinnacle of boxing.

      “Shane don’t want it to be no boxing match,” he said. “If he wants a boxing match, that’s an easier fight for Floyd. Shane has to keep the fight physical. His job is to keep on top of Floyd and keep that pressure on him, and hopefully, Floyd will wilt. That’s what he has to do.”

      “How does he cut Floyd off?” Roger Mayweather said. “He’s got to find some kind of tactic to stop Floyd from moving, stop Floyd from jabbing. I don’t know what his plan is.

      “Trapping the guy, keeping the guy in the corner, keeping him where you want to keep him at -- it’s a hard thing to do, especially if you’re going to have to use the jab to do it. That’s why I say it’s a very difficult fight for Shane.”

      “My thing is what he’s going to use to attack Floyd with,” he said. “What’s he going to use? If he’s going to use his jab, he’s got to trap Floyd some way. And if he traps Floyd, how’s he going to use his jab?"
      It would be naivety to think Roger doesnt have confidence.Roger is only saying what Mosley will try to do but then Floyd has the strategy to counteract that.People also need to know that everyone who has fought Floyd except Marquez tried to make this a fight and the result has always been the same.This is what people dont understand,if you fight Floyd will whoop your ass.

          Roger and "doesn't seem too confident" don't even go together.

            yea, i don't see where roger is not as confident. it seems to me he's saying, what it takes to beat floyd, shane does not have, and better figure it out.

              Shane is respected in the boxing circle. Doesn't mean Floyd can't beat him

                I remember when Pac/May negotiations were going on..Roger kept saying that Pac would be an easy fight for Floyd, but the real test would be Mosley..even when Floyd was insulting Shane, Roger stated he was the toughest opponent!..he always said that Mosley was the tougher fight..they respect Mosley..so Im excited to see what they bring come fight night..

                  Roger don't know much but he knows boxing. Shane is a HOF fighter so if PBF sleeps on Shane PBF will go to sleep. Roger knows that Shane is hungry, dangerous and fighting for glory.

                    maybe he should just bring a bat in the ring
