Did any boxer before hit their prime in the 30's?

That's why I always say it's Miles instead of Age. Hopkins didn't start boxing until he was in prison in his twenties.

And look at Amir Mansour

Maybe it's both?

Age AND mileage affects.

Age AND mileage affects.

I haven't boxed in about 10 years, but I've had the itch lately.



so I'll let you know if it's both

I was aware that Hopkins started late when he got out of prison. Didn't know about Holyfield though.

Floyd hit his prime in his mid 30s after he came back from his career break.

He came back bigger and with much more muscle and an insight into PEDs

What was he doing on his career break, away from any testing.

Only really Hopkins.

And let's be real, before the like 2000s, that shxt never happened.

Historically, boxers primes coincided with everyone else's pre 20 years ago

Now, all of a sudden guy's primes are 34, LOL

[SN!PER]

Bernard Hopkins still hasn't hit his prime yet.

But he retired early to let the young champs have some glory.
