    I think it's not possible to be in your prime after 100+ fights, yea some fighters can still be good, but still not in prime.

    Not amateur fights, professional fights.

      He was still good, but not in his prime.

          Casamayors been in over 300 amautar bouts, and 32-3(should be 1)-1 D. Do you consider him primed? It just depends on how cometed you are to boxing, and how old you are, what type of fights your having..

            I'm not talking about amateurs bouts. I'm talking about professional fights. Big difference between amateurs & professional fights.

                  Not a question that needs to be asked anymore, it ain't like the old days, noone is getting up to 100 fights again, the fighters dont fight enough, fighters in the old days fought much more. They were also younger when they started.

                    If you fight top notch then hell ya you will be WAY past it, but if you feed on bums your whole career like Julio Cesar Chavez then no you will not be past it.
