    Don't you think, though, that much of this had to do with watching the Winky fights?

    As others have said, don't think Floyd is as fast as he used to be foot speed wise but he's still pretty fast and obviously uses the ring very well.

    I've always read, heard and been told that looping rights and lefts, can be one of the most hardest shots to anticipate and defend. A lapse of concentration, and the hand that's being launched your way can be out of sight, and you won't know when it's going to land.

    And in Mayweather's case, his shoulder role stance can be vulnerable to that looping right hand, because it glides over the shoulder, not onto it. And Marquez did use a clever feint to land that shot, too. 11 seconds in:

    He might have slowed down slightly. But his legs are now where near gone.

    Absolutely not, His legs are one of the main reasons why he was able to withstand Mosley's bombs during their fight. Legs/Feet acts as springs to absorb punishment add to that his underrated chin.

    Besides we can clearly see that he can still move very very very well in the ring.
