    Can't say he was prime but Glen Johnson was a better fighter in his 30s than his 20s

            None. Fighters are past-prime when their reflexes start to slip which happens in the early to mid 30s at the latest.

                Glen Johnson, Nate Campbell and Juan Manuel Marquez all hit their nicest stretches post-34.

                EDIT: Obviously, B-hop's gotta be in here too.

                  I think Hopkins absolute peak was the trinidad fight and I believe he was 36 years old.
