I can't think why boxers*** should be way different although the exceptions make more noise than all those who fade at 30+.
I got GGG's absolute prime at about 30-31 years old when he ran through C++ Macklin like a knife through butter.
He is still close to his prime now but not his absolute prime based on last 2-3 performances. Course, if he grinds Jacobs down to an early or mid rounds stoppage I am rational and willing to revise.
*** part of pro boxing is that experience (because there is so much to learn) lags behind athletic prime. So a boxer's results can improve as experience gets them through while athletic ability is on the downslide.
