Mike Tyson was more ripped and buffed than ever when he came back to the ring...right?
A boxer like Mayweather has TIMING as his greatest asset. It doesn't matter how much fitness work FMJ was doing. Floyd wasn't competing against top guys, he wasn't getting ring experience during those two years.
You must be the only knowledgeable boxing insider who doesn't value "activity."
"fighting in public" is the BEST experience you can get.
Do you think Mayweather sat at home and did nothing for almost 2 years? Think of the layoff as just not fighting in public. Everyone knows damn well that mayweather was in the gym while he was "retired".
Pac? Im no sure as to what he would do if he retired and two years later come back because hes trying to get all into politics. So its a case by case, but JMM would be the favorite I would assume.
You cant compare JMM or Pac to Mayweather when it comes to GYM time/fitness.
Wess,

He sets traps for people better than anyone else in the game today.
Co-sign. He has a better uppercut than Mayweather, he is a better combination puncher, and he doesn't have brittle hands like Mayweather. But I don't think anybody has more brittle hands than Mayweather except maybe Gatti. Lol.
JMM had a crazy work rate in the fight against Juan Diaz. That most definitely comes from his dedicated training regiment from running in the mountains and quality sparring (where intensity is concerned). Mayweather has not fought somebody with the stamina that JMM has.
Juan Manuel Marquez is counting down the days until the biggest fight of his career. With a little over a month to go, Marquez is preparing for his challenge of of his life against Floyd Mayweather Jr. on September 19 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. [details]
