    When did this happen, IYO?

    His legs have slowed down massively over the past few years, but when did you start noticing a decline?

    After the Mosley fight like people said. The Hatton fight was the last fight where he had his legs.

    he looks stronger than usual. i think they know he needs to be strong for guerrero and not let him bully him around like he did with berto

    Post-Hatton, his movement hasn't looked the same.

    I still can't believe the way he was able to push Mosley around.. Floyd is skilled enough to still be elite, even though his legs are slowing.

    He may have slowed down slightly but nothing significant. However I have a quick question: towards the end of both the Guerrero and Canelo fights Floyd has taken his foot of the gas. Has this been because he knew he had done enough already to win the fight and was just keeping it tight, or has there been a slight element of fatigue given his age?

    I know he's in tremendous shape and he's still sharp as a tack, but I'm just wondering. Then having said that, he hurt his hand and then elbow respectively in his last two fights so maybe that was the reason he wasn't as active.

    What are you talking about he looked REALLY sharp last night?
    I've acually thought that his footwork here was really amazing.
