Nah. His eyes look fresher in that one. Means alot considering it's a mugshot.
Is anyone worried about how worn Floyd looks?

Well he is getting older but I'm not playing into it...
My biggest concern is Ortiz being a southpaw...and Floyd has always been aggresive against leftys in the past...
Ortiz has fresher legs than Floyd from what we've seen of late...I think Floyd may try and break Ortiz's will...Comment

what was interesting was that Floyd was obviously the alpha in the staredown. He was all up in Ortiz's personal space.Comment

Floyd did look old but what can you expect. Alot of fighters look different at the first press con but by fight week they look back to normal because they have trained their body back to full fitness. Floyd is coming off a long lay off with many pesonal issues so its not surprising he is looking his age. It is though the first thing I noticed which but if he is getting older it can only be a good thing because it evens out the playing field. If he is slowing down then maybe people will start having a chance against him now because for the last 15 years it has been easy for him.
Im not concerned about the "standing" and lack of movement vs Mosley like a couple other people on this thread have suggested. I think it was an intentional and part of the gameplan for that fight. If you allow Shane to come forward he builds momentum but if you stop him in his tracks with a jab then he is pretty clueless tactically. Floyd is a student of the game and knew this so thats what he did. I wouldnt link it to him not having the legs anymore because he hasnt been in wars and he doesnt baloon in weight between fights. Hopkins has 10 years on him and still uses his legs so theres no reason why Floyd would suddenly become stationary. When he needs to he will use his legs again.Comment

Floyd was definitely not moving a lot, but his feet were still perfect as always.
The man is probably just tired, it happens to all of us. I am 24 and when I dont sleep enough or am hungover I can look like an older man. Nothing to get excited about.Comment
