    what do you mean he lost speed and power?? Oh i get what you're saying it's because he's not knocking guys out now huh? You do know he's fighting bigger guys than when he 1st started and never has been a KO artist. I mean isn't he considered one of the fastest/quickest fighters today?? No?

      this right here is a great answer and why you see guys like Hopkins Morales and Barrera still do great things even when they go past prime.

      Mentally their games adapted and changed to match their somewhat declining skillset. A lot of people still see it as being in prime but physically you can see subtle differences. For a guy like Hopkins it could be a drop in activity, Morales less and less toe to toe exchanges, for Barrera establishing a jab and boxing more

      Mayweather isn't any different. He has adapted his game to fit his physicalities

        Floyd is not in his prime per say, he has lost some speed and pop coming up in weight in aging. He is still a great fighter nearly on the top of his game, though.

        Also, he does not have a lot of wear and tear on his body.

          At the lower weights he had KO power in BOTH hands. When did you start following his career. 23 of his KO's came under 147.

            Nah... he ain't. But truthfully, right now he's better than he was in his prime. His Prime was the corrales fight to that Judah fight. But right now he's smarter. He's not looking for the kO, he's looking for the W. looking for the KO get you what Pac got in his 12th fight. lmao

              yup and that's why you think he's not in his prime anymore because he can't do the things he could in the lower weights?? am I right? again isn't floyd still one of the quickest/fastest boxers today??
