That's a post I did about this. I watched Shane vs Collazo fight again and felt Floyd would back Shane up and possibly stop him. Good post though.
Thanks man, i just checked out your post about it. You were spot on, only reason i can't give you full credit is because it was last edited at 4:05 am after the fight lol. But if you did call it before hand major props real genius. Nobody saw that coming. Can't wait to hear roach and ****m's interviews about the fight.Comment

How do you know what Naazim and Shane expected?
I do not know why some of you cats act as if you're interpreters. Yeah, when Naazim said that Floyd would sprout a tail, wings, claws, and spit fireballs, he meant he expected Mayweather to start fighting from a distance
.
Good interpretation

Spitting fireballs meaning firing back hard shots at Shane has nothing at all to do with walking Shane down. Nobody in their right mind expected floyd to walk Shane down.How do you know what Naazim and Shane expected?

LMAO! I only edited the spelling of a word I noticed I mispelled. I see what you're saying though. lol But you can see from the replies that I actually see this coming. Cause most of them thought it was ****** for me to say it! lolThanks man, i just checked out your post about it.

Floyd has walked down Judah, Mitchell, and Corley, and that's only opponents from 140 and up. He's done it before.
I do not know how you can interpret a dragon and fireballs to just mean hard shots and not take into account aggressiveness at the same time. They fully expected Floyd to get aggressive and come forward after getting hit, Shane just couldn't deal with it.
After Naazim said the dragon comment, he said "When he does... I'm gonna tell Shane to step to the side and punch him in his stomach."
Yeah, because stepping to the side would be the exact thing to do to someone not coming forward.Comment

Not trying to be a ****, just that I don't agree with your OP. Naazim tried to prepare Shane for everything and I am almost sure that he expected Floyd to get as aggressive as he got.
Shane is a class act, so he's not going to put the blame on anyone but himself. But in this case, he has to take all the blame because everything was laid out and he couldn't execute.Comment

1) What does that have to do with him walking down Mosley who none of those fighters could carry his jock strap lets be serious. This was Shane Mosley certified Hall of Famer. One of the biggest, fastest hardest punching welterweights.Floyd has walked down Judah, Mitchell, and Corley, and that's only opponents from 140 and up. He's done it before.

2) Total B.S, nobody expected him to walk down Shane everyone thought him trying to stand toe to toe with Shane would lead him getting Ko'd let alone walking down Mosley
3) So when someone his firing off at you stepping aside and punching them doesn't mean COUNTERING? That means that they have to walk you down. Are you serious?Last edited by Championart; 05-02-2010, 10:14 PM.Comment

So you're completely ruling out Naazim and the Mosley camp preparing for Mayweather to come forward when he got punched?1) What does that have to do with him walking down Mosley who none of those fighters could carry his jock strap lets be serious.

"Most people who aren't Mayweather fans consider him to be a pure punk, he's a talented coward the way they see it, and I disagree with that. I think this kid can rumble, I think he can stand in there and rumble a little bit. My impression of the fight? Shane's gonna come out and hit Floyd in the mouth, and Floyd is gonna sprout a tail, grow wings, draw fangs and claws and turn into a Dragon in the ring; And he'll start spittin fire balls." - ****m Richardson
You're interpretation of what he said is much more accurate than mine though. Naazim never expected Mayweather to get aggressive
