Is it me or is Floyd getting older... and stronger?

[THE REED]

He looks a lot stronger at 33 than he did at 29 in the division.

A hair slower... but a lot stronger.

He has definitely grown into a full welterweight.

[AFTER HOURS]

the a side meth hes using is much better than pac's a side meth.

[Mojita]

I Disagree.

Slower, yes, but since he's so good with his reflexes and defensive he makes up for what he lost in terms in speed if you get what i mean? This guy could always fight great on the inside and outside so if he stood his ground he wouldn't be the lesser one of the two.

If he was stronger, Mosley and Marquez would have been KO wins, not one-sided decisions when he clearly could have taken them away. just IMO.

[Chip2006uk]

Yup, looked strong as hell against mosley

i've been saying this BIGTIME since the fight....

he has grown into WW...

i dont see anyone coming in so to say "stronger" than him at 147....

AND i dont think he's any slower.... i think he uses his legs less because his reflexes are THAT good and he is big enough now that he doesnt have to duck everything!

There is a difference between strength and power in punching. Strength doesn't always equate power.

no. marquez has a good chin but he's got slippery feet, always falling down. mosley has a great chin and has barely been down in his entire career. mayweather looks stronger definitely, he was able to keep mosley at bay.

I am saying a HAIR slower... its not really noticeable for the most part.

[geribeetus]

he probably took it a little easier in retirement and put on some muscle with the lack of cardio

maybe handspeed but his reflex speed, which to me is his BIGGEST attribute, is still there....
