Can't we all agree that Floyd is still in his prime?

      Not too many guys are prime at 35 unless they peak late.

      He has more experience and has gained more skills than he did when he was younger but no he isnt in his physical prime. His punching power was better at 140 and below and his combinations were better. He is still fast though and his experience and skill make up for physical decline. He adapts, so he doesnt move as much as he used to in order to save energy. Hopkins changed his style a bit as he aged too. Its what smart fighters do.

        If he's in his prime then this is the last or second to last fight of it. I'd say slightly out of it but Floyd slightly out of his prime is still the best fighter on the planet.

            Just another FYI for those who may not have read through the thread. I was trolling when I made it and I dont think that Floyd is still in his prime, but he's still the best fighter in the world.

                A little known fact~

                The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is actually a true story based on Floyd Mayweather Jr. he was just being modest and didn't want the movie to be about him just his situation in general and some issues that come up with reverse aging~

                I am surprised more boxing fans aren't aware of this~
