How many boxers were at their primes after turning 35?

[Robbie Barrett]

The questions is simple.

All I can think of is Mayweather. Sergio Martinez maybe? but probably was not prime anymore after turning 37. He was 35 when he beat Pavlik and Williams.

Many ATG had more losses than victories after turning 34/35.

Which means that if Golovkin is beaten in the next years a few times doesn't mean he wasn't an ATG. Just means he was old. Look at every ATG's resume and show me how many were still beating everyone after turning 35.

Is Golovkin an ATG now? No, so yes it does mean he wasn't an ATG.

Golovkin hasn't fought A level fighters which means we don't know how good he actually is, if he retires without ever beating an a-level fighter he's not an ATG. Sorry

top 3 MW all time currently.




dominance. no losses. people dismiss his wins all the time. but the facts are he's beating nothing but top 10 MW's and champs for years.

That's your POV and I can agree with that. I see a little beyond resume. There's a reason he had trouble getting elite fighters in the ring with him and that reason is not his fault, but we have different opinions on that matter so it's ok.

Not my fault you're new to the sport.

Floyd used PEDs so I don't care about it. Using PEDs you can succeed at an old age.

easy

Rehydration is the cornerstone of treatment for cholera. Oral rehydration salts and, when necessary, intravenous fluids and electrolytes, if administered in a timely manner and in adequate volumes, will reduce fatalities to well under 1% of all patients.

When you only cut 3 pounds you don't need IV's to rehydrate.

thats easy to say for someone who doesn't spar every other day

It depends what you call prime,Floyd wasnt in his peak ,but prime maybe ,expiriance+Athletism he had left,ppl who are laughing at you are idiots who think only theyr definition is right,we can say he was still prime,as Pacquiao was ,they both definitly was takeing something,floyd pictures on scales post 30 look better then in mid 20.

But you shouldnt be suprised with this reaction cuse it real looks like you are looking for excuse for GGG(not saying you are),GGG have 3 very good years left.

Martinez knee was injured before a fight but 12 raund was nail in the coffin,surgery's and **** he never recovered,Moore is best example doe.

Mayweather definitely showed no physical decline. At 39 he was as fast as he'd ever been, his legs still fresh. Honestly, I've compared his prime movement with his "past prime" movement and his legs are still as strong and fast, he can make the same moves, and his stamina is the same. Since his come back I even got a floyd boy in agreement with me that he was more powerful and stronger at welterweight post comeback.

Only fight Mayweather actually looked old is vs Berto. Dunno if he just didn't train as much or juice as hard. But with that said I'm not sure that can be all PED's, I mean keeping father time away with PED's in his late 30's? Maybe I've been underestimating them, but likely genetics in play too.
