How close to being "shot" is Floyd?

On the verge, i still rate him as the best at Welterweight. Although near shot with all the extra he just put i wonder if he could even safely make that weight without a needle in his arm.

 

What do you consider being shot? I'd still favor him over most welterweights not named Thurman or Spence. However, he is 40. Father time beats everybody. Even Floyd. A year or two from now, I wouldn't favor him over Jesse Vargas. The old lions eventually make way for the young. That's life.

 

He's past it. He'll be shot in another year I think. He can't hang with the elite anymore I don't think. His timing will be off and he relies on that.

 

Hope fully he wont come back so we can find out how shot he is
Floyd stay retire and enjoy your money.

 

They way he fought last weekend, he'd be lucky to be a top 5 WW today

 

I don't believe he is shot yet. He is still an elite fighter but I think Spence would have beaten him. I think he can still outbox guys like Thurman and Crawford. The pressure fighters like Spence pose a real problem, like Castillo and Maidana did.

 

noone is elite in their 40s. even hopkins and foreman , the two most outstanding longevity pioneers, werent by then.

 

If he avoids bad neighborhoods he wont need to worry about stray bullets.

 

His timing and movement had abandoned him like it did with Sugar Ray Leonard in his fight with Terry Norris. He'd have been took apart by a Thurman, Spence, Garcia etc Thankfully, he was just fighting some overhyped novice.

 

If that chump was able to touch him with those slow ass shots that had no snap to them...also didn't like how slow he looked when Mcgregor would slide around behind him.

 

He's 40. Retire. He slowed down a lot since the Canelo fight and he's told everyone that. So it's not really a surprise.

 

pretty close to $100,000,000.00 i would guestimate.

 

He's not shot, I think his body is now showing the effects of being
worn and age. This fight doesn't prove or disprove anything as he
literally was toying with Mcgregor.

His fights against Pac and Berto and even Maidana tell a lot. He's
still quick and his mind is still phenomenal but his react time is just a
bit off. He's visibly slowing down and is a bit stiffer in the ring.

Spence, Thurman, Porter would all be hard sells, especially Spence
and Porter because they're both pressure fighters. A pure boxer in his
prime always has issues with pressure fighters, that only increases as
the pure boxer slows down.
