        Like BHop, he has a special style that doesn't entirely rely on prime, as long as he keeps training hard.

          floyd relies on his boxing knowledge and being able to adjust. he is technicaly sound so even if he is past his physical prime he will still be the best boxer and give anyone problems. because he can win fights not relying on speed and power he outsmarts his opponents and lures them into traps. like roy jones once he sliped a little in reflexs and speed his whole world came crashing down. floyd can lose speed or whatever and he can still win at a top level. same with bhop. they are always conditioned to perfection and they skill level are high they boxing knowledge is high as well.

          they dont rely on speed and power. they know when to use either. they main purpose is to win.

          like ali some of his biggest and best wins are past his physical prime. but his knowldege of the game allowed him to use what he got and win no matter what style he was fighting

            Everyone here on the internet is not ******. Not until they post here and create threads like this.

            Your theory is as crap as the *******s and *****s here.
            Well I don't claim to be above everyone else here. If you are intimidated by me like that, sorry. I know not every one here goes to college and gets educated properly and you might see this thread as an attempt at being intelligent but really that says all about you. You're pretty ****** lol.

              Lol this had nothing to do with Pacquiao, at all. This was strictly about Mayweather. I don't know why Pacquiao was mentioned here.

                Floyd less KO's because he is fighting bigger guys

                Pacquiao looks slower because he himself is bigger

                ?

                  deffo past prime, not surprised either 33yrs old now his physical gifts are on the decline but he compensates for it with his boxing skill added to the fact he trains year round so he's younger then say a 31yr old hatton. At 130-140lbs floyd could blow you out the water with ease, now he's more calculated & methodical still super fast & great reflex's but 80-85% of what he was.

                    Welterweight is not his best division for sure.

                    hes not the same guy at welter compared to before.

                    maybe him only fighting one fight a year recently has taken something from him,all that inactivity.
