Since Ortiz is going to be around 25 and has a pretty good amount of experience as an amateur and professional, I would say he might be just about ready to assume his prime years. 25 is mid career for some fighters. It just depends on the individual. He has been tested in a crucible-like fight with Maidana and that experience probably made him stronger. I was very impressed with Ortiz's muscularity in the Berto fight. He is clearly maturing physically.
Although Mayweather does keep himself in superior physical shape. 34 is getter closer to the retirement stage for a fighter. He is generally inactive in terms of live fighting.
This might not be the mismatch it is presumed to be. The 10 years difference in age might make up for some of Mayweather's other advantages.
