The Maidana fight fooled a lot of people, but that was just a tough style for Floyd. He always had issues with roughhouse volume punchers, he would have struggled against that Maidana in his prime.
Mayweather has taken little punishment throughout his career and has aged terrifically. Look at his face, he looks young as f*** for a 38 year old, I know men of all races who look older/worse than he does in their twenties! Also there's studies saying people who look young for their age are biologically younger than their date of birth indicates, something to do with telomeres or some sht.
His physique is just as ripped as it's ever been at Welterweight, he's still lightening fast with his hands and feet, his reflexes are still phenomenal.
Look at the Canelo fight, Canelo has slow feet but quick hands, Floyd was still able to toy with him, make him miss... he looked phenomenally fast in that fight too.. He was a bit rusty against Guerrero but after the 4th when he got his rhythm back it was target practise, Not to mention how ridiculous he looked against Marquez and Mosley.
Against Ortiz he chose to fight flat footed, people think his legs went, Roach has been saying that nonsense for 5 years, he chose to fight that way vs Ortiz because he genuinely disliked him and knew he was mentally weak.. His handpseed in that fight was incredible for a 23 year old let alone a 33 year old.
Look at his face, the likes of Irondanhamza says he looks old facially but he looks pretty fresh faced as a 38 year old to me, looks a lot better than many 20 somethings I know.
