What fight was Mayweather's peak?

Yep.. That's when you see what a fighter is made of. Floyd went to another gear after that 4th round vicious Corley right hand. I remember it like yesterday.
It was a damn exciting fight!Comment

I think what's funnier is when Pac fans or Floyd haters say that Floyd never beat a prime Oscar, yet we hear crickets about Pac vs DLH...which was an even more ridiculous weight...Comment

And Floyd was 150lbs and 37yrs old, while Nelio was 22yrs old and 165lbs.Yeah he was on point with his performance in that fight. I know the fight with Canelo was at 152 and before the fight i said Canelo was too green but Canelo pushed for the fight, they thought they were ready and they thought they were getting Mayweather at the right time. They even refuse to fight on another Mayweather undercard, just to push the fight through.
Unfortunately for Canelo Mayweather is just too good for him or anyone in this era. He just mixed it up against Canelo and for all Canelo fighting experience he hasn't seen anything like that before.
I need to edit my comment, I said "big boy fights" I meant to say "big boy weights" That fight with Canelo outdid everything Floyd did at the big boy weights, while what he did with Gatti, outdid everything he did at the smallboy weights!Comment

I always thought 2005 was Floyd at his peak. Some people tend to associate the time he became a PPV star as his peak. But I slightly disagree with that, even Floyd would disagree. He has said his body broke down after the Sharmba Mitchell fight.
In 2005 Floyd fought three times and they were all impressive showings and all fights were stopped. The Gatti fight might have been his single best performance ever in the ring. After 2005 Floyd slowly regressed and it showed in his performances.Comment
