Naazim Richardson in Sergios Corner?

[J_Undisputed]

Any official news from a credible news source about this? The rumors are flying that Sergio Just added Naazim to his team to check the wraps and work corner duties behind Sarimiento.
SORRY ALL, JUST SAW MENTION OF THIS IN THE OFFICIAL FIGHT THREAD>>> I guess it will discussed there.

All mind games..to martinez advantage.

I don't know if it is to Martinez' advantage. To me it sounds like Chavez Jr pisses him off to the point where he is clearly effected by Chavez.

Why change a winning formula? That's a big change to put a new member in your corner come fight night simply to get into someones head before the fight.

I doubt Chavez Jr tries any shady business before and after this fight considering a big fuss was made for his previous few fights..but hey with Nazim there, who knows? That dude could probably sniff out some bad wraps or PED's even if Chavez was trying to hide them up his arse

Sergio is taking no chances biggest fight of his life. No expense spared.

I agree, it's good to have a real depth of experience in your corner for the calming effect and their ability to read the other fighter and the overall feel for what needs to be done. Richardson knows it all from the bottom up. He'll be keeping his eyes on the other corner for sure.

The primary reason he is having Richardson in his corner is to protect him at the glove wrapping and at the pre- and post- fight drug tests because Junior has a history of cheating. I doubt he will be anymore than a chief second in the corner. It's not like Sergio Martinez is going to change up his style the day before the fight.

That is exactly how I took this. Borderline over compensation and may show or imply a reverse feeling in favour of Jr. Why he had to even hire someone outside his own camp to watch this wrap is puzzling enough.
