Who wants to bet that Floyd comes out of retirement when Pac starts to slow down?

      Dont be an idiot.
      slowing down its not even just based on age, its how much damage you take in your career. and plus mayweather basically fights once a yr compare to pac who fights twice a yr. mayweather obviously playing a waiting game.

          Well there you have it. This will be the excuse if he beats Pacqiauo, atleast your starting early for once.

            I agree with this...

            But in relation to Mayweather only fighting once a year, though he hasn't taken a lot of punishment through his career, that doesn't mean age at some point won't play a factor when dealing with instincts and speed (which can leave you if you do become as inactive as Floyd has recently become). He's obviously not a shot fighter by any means, but I don't think he's as explosive or as fast as he used to be both on his feet and his punching. He's still a great counter puncher, but he's really left his combo punching behind for quite some time now. Whether that's because he chooses to fight that way now or he can now "only" fight that way is the question.

              Why do Pacquiao fans think that Mayweather thinks about Manny as much as they do???
              C'mon people, Pacquiao might be the center of the Universe for YOU, but unlike you, He is probably the less Mayweather is thinking about.
              He's bigger, has more skills and has his own money and life and I'm sure He thinks about Manny only when He is thinking about his next move.
              When the fight happens, I'm sure HE will be thinking about Manny, in the mean time; HE HAS HIS OWN PROBLEMS.

                  Haha... Sorry Floyd, Manny's offer has already expired. It's already off the table. You have to beg for it to have it. Even your own fanboys would not take you seriously. Next time you have to shove your silly OST up your azzz.

                  Beggars can't be choosers.

                  Fight Malignaggi instead.

                  LLH!
                  Didnt know you was involved in negotiations.

                  Your just saying that to back up what the TS said. Floyd is older, not saying he would peak sooner... but im saying that he would be more prone to peak sooner because hes older. Yeah Floyds style means he takes less damage but as he gets older his reflexes might not be the same which might mean his fighting style aint as effective, some guys have said on here they think Floyd is slipping right now, so how can the TS say Floyd will wait for Manny to slow down?

                  He cant predict the future, hes just gonna wait for Manny to slow down, assuming he wont do either even though hes two years older than him.

                  Floyd is gonna let a younger guy age before he fights him so he can go out of his prime? Are you for real?

                  Well not fighting as much just means he will be more rusty more often and just be a part time fighter, so that means jack **** too. If he goes ages without fighting, hes gonna get rustier and rustier and slip more and more because he isn't keeping sharp.

                  pac's style, however, is based on reaction and speed. once pac loses even a little speed, he'll be in trouble. there's a huge drop off.

                  therefore, it's to wifebeater's advantage to wait until pac slows down, AND OBVIOUSLY if that is the wifebeater gameplan (wifebeater don't fight no one he knows he can't beat. wifebeater straight up ducked a prime margarito and justified the duckage and his cowardice by saying he knew margarito was using plaster before he even got caught using.)
                  Yeah but as Floyd gets older wont he have the possibility of his reflexes and reaction times getting slower? Just because Floyd fights an intellegent style doesn't mean that he isn't allowed to peak.

                  How is it gonna be to his advantage? Floyd is older and some say isn't in his prime anymore, if he waits and fights less thats gonna run against him just as much. Stop hating on him for the sake of it its pathetic, acting like hes not even allowed to peak now.

                  Yeah because people like you really contribute a lot. You need to come to terms with the fact that both are as bad as each other.

                  Of course, but if Floyd is getting older... without fighting as much obviously hes gonna peak a little, especially if he relies on reflexes a lot, things that apparently slow down as you get older.

                  People have said that Floyd is peaking now, and that he isn't as much in his prime anymore (whether the case or not is another story), waiting and fighting less will only run against him because he will be more rusty and not sharp throughout the year.

                  Bull**** excuse.

                    Obviously Floyd's not salivating over Pacquiao, but I have no doubt he sees Pacquiao as his next meal ticket...his biggest of his career.
