Floyd is playing a dangerous game with inactivity

[ИATAS]

No one can predict when old age will come.

Floyd is 33 year old. By the time he fights next, he'll probably be pushing 34. On top of that, if he signs a four fight contract, at this pace he'll be fighting at the very least till he's 37-38 years old.

Remember Superman? He was unbeatable, never legitimately lost. Until he hit 34. They say reflexes is the first thing to go for a fighter. Floyd relies heavily on his cat-like reflexes.



Floyd took off two years during his prime and probably another year now. That's 3 years of wasted time & talent. Instead of building his legacy & making money, it went down the toilet. One day he may look back and regret all the inactivity.

Jones ruined his body after coming down from Heavyweight. If Floyd's plan is to take a year off and fight at 140, then you might have a point.

its a little to soon to be talking about this

Floyd could fight again later this year-early next year

[warp1432]

Floyd has good enough defense and movement to where even if he loses speed, he can still be a good fighter. Jones didn't have that defense and so he got KTFO

why you gotta bring up old ****

[infamous larryx]

floyds defense is impregnable

[Dan...]

Floyd has better fundamentals than Roy Jones.

Having said that, I agree to an extent. You never know when you are going to get old and Floyd is steadily moving closer to that time.

[Boss Don]

Floyd will be alright he just fought a couple months ago all this stuff about Floyd is losing his skills and his legs are gone is just a bunch of crap

[Born2Live]

Floyd isn't a idiot, at this sage of his career he knows to keep in shape between fights, that'll help not declining his abilities plus, he needs a lot of time off in between fights because of his hands.
