Glad to see this fight get made. I think everyone is underestimating the difference Mosley's change in trainers makes.
Shane has always had the tools, but seemed to not have a game plan. His dad was not a strategist, just good at getting Shane in shape. Now Shane is with the team that has helped BHop dominate for 2 decades.
PBF has weaknesses, and they've been shown in several of his fights. Just hasn't fought anyone who could keep it consistent. ODH fades and just stops jabbing, Zab should be fighting 3 rounders. The main thing is Floyd doesn't like getting hit, so when he gets stung he goes into the shell. Shane will make PBF fight. It will either be a breakout performance for PBF where he shows he's got balls or Shane will back him up and make him look scared.
Shane won't follow Floyd around and eat jabs all night with Naz in his corner. He will have a strategy and they will break Floyd down or Floyd will just prove he's as good as he says he is.
I'm betting Floyd isn't committed enough and when it gets tough he gets on his bike and tries to out run Shane. Remember there's no strategy in PBF's corner. They rely on PBF's natural ability. No game plan ever, they just plan on him being faster and in better shape.
