I would say Bernard Hopkins, hit his peak around the age of 36/37. He was 37 years of age, I belive when he stopped the then 40-0 Felix Trinidad.

Archie Moore peaked AGAIN, in his late 30's.

Jersey Joe Walcott peaked again at the age of 38.

Glen Johnson started winning big fights and getting big days in his late 30's.

Nate Campbell won the undisputed 135lb title at 36 with a career best performance, and seemed to of peaked big in his late 30's.

Sergio Martinez looked as good as he ever has in his last fight, were most feel he was robbed against P4P rated Paul Williams. Sergio is 35.


I know Sergio, Glen & Nate aren't ATG's. But still a credit to themselves.
