Is Floyd Mayweather Jr. still in his "Prime"?

Time will tell I guess...

Although that has allot to do with fighting bigger opponents (thus more focus on defense and less punch output) i must agree he isn't the prime MW anymore. He took a little while getting off vs Hatton and that's a sign of becoming old. Same with Marquez and Campbell who now only get off late in fights if at all. But i guess this is what people want to see. I rather see prime fighters fighting within their full ability but money speaks louder these days. Specially when you have spending habits such as Floyd or as many kids as Campbell, then you are destined to go out on a low. That's why my only true idol is Lennox Lewis. No one has ever managed to fight the best in their era, avenge his losses by a land-mile and retire with dignity as the UNDESPUTED HW champion. Lewis did so well people to this day still recognize him as the true champion even though we have pretty good albeit kinda boring fighters in the K brothers.

maybe so, but Corralles was 6'0 and look at what mayweather did to him.

but regardless, I was thinking about the way mayweather use to move. the amount of power and speed and slickness that he had. He lost a lot of that everytime he moved up a weight class. I think it has a lot to do with his back and shoulder injuries.
