    Does anyone think Mosley may peak early for his bout with Mayweather?

    He looked in great shape at the press conference. I realise he was heading into the latter stages of his training camp for the Berto bout, do you think this will have any effect on him, or could it benefit him as he may not have to worry about his weight, and his camp can solely work on his gameplan to beat Mayweather?

    It's possible but I think he's really to seasoned to let something like that happen. Also remember that he collaborates with B-Hop...

    Good question. He's done it before. Most notably in the runup to the Cotto fight.

    I'm basing all of this on what if's. After near enough just finishing a training camp, could he push too hard in training because of the hype of the bout, or could he be training too hard to get at Mayweather?
    I actually believe he has been around too long for it to effect him, but you can become old over night in boxing.

    Whats concerning me is, he is probably at an age were it is essential he peaks on the night of the bout or he his chances of winning drop dramatically. I mean, if a younger, primer fighter has an off night, there is still a chance he can pull off the victory.
