        the entire tournament was set up for Trinidad to win it. He was a substantial favorite over both Joppy and Hopkins.

        Don't think it was a mistake, he could beat any middleweight other han Hopkins and he was thought of as the favorite even against him.
        It was a mistake to "retire". He should have gone down to 154 again and kept on fighting.

          he knows he's washed up, but its Shane's decision to fight on and I'm sure Naz likes paydays too.

            Trinidad was a larger favorite vs. Joppy by a good margin.

            And if Trinidad didn't destroy Joppy he would have been less of a favorite going into the Hopkins fight than he was, so that statement doesn't make sense.

              True.....but Naz was terrible in the corner vs Pac & Canelo. Also I am not sure he knows, listen to him leading up to the last 2 fights....speaking like Shane Mosley still has gas left in the tank

                  I know, but Joppy was looked at as the tougher opponent, Hopkins was suppose to be the old washed up fighter. I didnt say that Joppy was the favorite in the tournament.

                    I think with Canelo he knew after a few rounds shane wasn't going to win and it was more of a matter of just getting shane to the final bell.

                    against Pac, I thought he told him some good things but shane was on his bike after the knockdown and simply didn't want to engage in a real fight. I don't think any trainer could have helped shane if shane didn't have it in him to take risks.

                      Naz is a excellent trainer, but what can you do when your fighter cant pull the trigger anymore?..Shane is shot
