    Lost a step, got old, out of shape, hands not as fast.

    All of that, and he'd still be the favorite against Pac.

    Yea i kind of thought in the begining of the 4th rd when he opened up he looked kind of slow. The reflexes seem to still be there, foot work "legs' seem fine, but i think he has lost some hand speed.

    He's a little bit slower . Both him and Pac has slowed down a little, but I think both of them have gotten stronger.

    He impressed and didn't impress. I think he is losing a step, but I don't know if that's from rustiness or not though. I hope he stays in the gym and spars with Zab until the Pac fight is signed

    I actually suggested this in another thread that he should use him as a sparring partner for pacquiao. He could emulate Pacquiao very well and Floyd could pay him a good amount while give him some pointers and extra experience

    naw not in the power department, but this is sparring and practice. He can pretend and act like each shot is powerful and try to avoid them anyways
