When Sugar Shane Mosley entered the ring against Margarito, it was with an unfamiliar face in his corner, new trainer Brother Nazim Richardson. But savvy boxing fans knew that this was the same trainer who devised the strategy that worked so well for 43-year old Bernard Hopkins when he upset Kelly Pavlik last year. Well, he did it again!
Brother Nazim is someone we will be hearing about in the future!! :appl::appl:
Yeah credot goes to that guy Nasim cuz he made noticable changes in Shane. Had his father been in the corner isntead maybe Shane might have got frustrated again but eh was fighting with a new sense of authority . I noticed the smiles were gone too and I thought that was down to teh Divroce/steroids news etc.
That Nazim is good and working on techniques that other trainers find hard to implement in their fighters. Mosley has moved onto the next level . Cant belive his speed for a 37 year . Round 9 and he is still as quick as he was in the 1st . Amazing
Nazim is an unbelievable trainer. What a gameplan he puts together for his fighters. Four times I can recall where a Richardson fighter's opponent can just not get off at all (Pavlik v Hopkins, Margs v Mosely, Trinidad v Hopkins, Tarver v Hopkins) All four were decided underdogs.
Why are you calling him "Brother" Nazim?Quote:

If you have a better jab, Shanes got a problem. His feet are a little bit wide.
Because he is known by that in Philadephia by other Muslims. :lolololol:Quote:

I remember Hopkins was on a boxing show we have every week over in the UK, & he was saying that Brother Nazim was a major factor in getting him sorted for the win because he's such a good tactical trainer. He was saying that if had of been in charge of his corner against Calzaghe (he was apparently seriously ill in the months before the fight) then he would have won convincingly because Roach isn't as good at changing tactics during the fight.
Nazim Richardson one-one-one interview
after i saw this i knew that shane was gonna win
imo the best trainer in the world
Nazim has to be one of the best trainers in boxing if not THE best.
Fukk it he is the best trainer. :cool:
Nazim deserves a lot of credit. I can't remember the last time Shane jabbed that well. He was more elusive, and more savy. Notice the almost Hopkins like way he would clinch sometimes, then other times bait Tony into trying to stop the clinch, push him off and throw a combo? Smart stuff. This has nothing to do with Richardson, but I loved how Mosley saved that huge left hook for the coup-de-grace. Jabs, right, and lighter left hooks all night, then, smack, he snaps off the same punch he used to finish off Mayorga...sweet.
I can't say that Nazim is better than Roach, but right now Richardson, Roach, and Stewart are the best. I would love to see Pavlik bring in Nazim to help him mix up his game.

And don't forget to credit Nazim for gameplanning Margarito's ultimate strategy...the plaster in the handwraps. Nazim is the one who noticed something fishy with the way they were wrapping Margarito's hands.
I don't know what the hell this guy is telling these old men but damn if he could get someone 17-24 to listen he'd save them a lot a early ass whoopin's, either that or maybe he should only train guys once they hit 35 plus.
He is also Rock and Tiger Allan's dad.
And handles a lot of amatures out the James Shuler Memorial Gym in Philly. He is known as the "Bear."Quote:

Great Job. Much Respect!!!
So if Nazim found that on Margarito's hands (yet to be proven), what did he complain about on Trinidad's hands? I remember Tito's corner had to do it all over again. It didn't make a big scandal as Margarito though, did it? I'll will have to watch the fight again.
It was the hand speed that surprised me,the last few Mosley fights I watched he looked like he was slowing down.
He had that 37 year old throwing like lightning
After watching his fight against Cotto I thought he was on his way out. I mean, he's 37! But he did look fast with Margarito or is it Margarito's slowness that makes anybody look fast?Quote:

Kind of a shame they hadnt hooked up earlier in his career,because Nazim really seems to be able to push the right buttons with him.
You beat me too it.....Quote:
