Around SBN: Trent Richardson Interviews Fellow Brown Brandon Weeden

Very good interview with Naazim Richardson conducted by AllHipHop.com. Since it's not a traditional boxing site I figured I'd post it in case some people missed it.

Sidenote: Am I the only one that thinks he's stealing the show with 24/7? The Mayweather clan's antics are the same old story and Shane's personality is pretty boring to me. If it was up to me each episode would focus soley on Brother Naazim!

Great Stuff Soulrise

Naazim is the best interview in boxing , period.

I'm not a Mosley fan

but I have to say his trainer is legit, I never understood why everyone liked him so much until I saw him in 24/7. That was a hell of an interview.

Coolest man in boxing

Any fighter would benefit from Brother Naazim’s wisdom. Excellent interview Soulrise.

I get an error when I try to load up their site. some XML error. tried on safari and firefox.

Here is another interview, though. Very long one actually, but they let Naazim speak for at least 45 minutes if not more. I know, not the easiest web site on the eyes (kill me now), but you can skip through the player which is nice. Naazim is the last guest on the show. Starts off a bit slow like he’s tired but gets rolling fairly quick.

I agree that he is one of the most truthful people you come across in this game, at least as far as we know. He reminds me of some of the street guys I’ve met in my life in NY who had more knowledge than any school teacher could offer. Guys who have seen the world as it is and don’t keep it all a secret. When people like him die it’s like a library burning down who’s books have gone out of print.

Even if Mosley loses the fight, I’m curious just to see how Naazim has him approach this. Besides strategy, he’s one of the few trainers I’ve seen give fighters constructive criticism at the time they needed it.

A promise is comfort to a fool.
