    Hes 38 years old and has been boxing pro for 18 years. Ofcourse he looks old..because he is and with that said hes still clearly the best fighter in the world and number 2 is a whole planet away from him.


    FIGHT ON

      He'll try and take his last 2 fights easier with Danny Garcia & maybe a Brook fight (which I doubt would be easy, but there aren't too many easier options).

      Pacquiao, Khan, Bradley would pose too much of a threat.

      But with Judges/Ref usually in his back-pocket, I doubt he would suffer a loss unless it was by KO or TKO (I think his chin is weak, but he just doesn't get caught enough).

        His right hand lead looked better in the second fight

          He will not want a spring chicken in there.

          Pacman makes the most sense right now.

          You know he's gonna end up fighting Khan next. Then Garcia. Then call himself TBE for that "0".

            Floyd won't retire, he'll be get beaten to retirement in a year or two but he'll come back like Jones and Toney to pay the debts he's run up. Familiar story.

            He's done well to string it out this long carefully choosing opponents.

              I actually agree, Pac still seems fast, much less decline IMO.

                  I thought he was going to get dropped in Rd 4. That right hand at the end of rd 3 could have wrecked him. Dude has a beard, has to be said.

                    Floyd won't have to worry about the same things against Pacquiao that he had to worry about Maidana. Floyd will probably let his hands go more against Pacquiao.
