Do you think the jail sentence last year will hurt Floyd at all?

    Me and my brother were debating this the other day. He thinks it won't be a problem but I'm unsure 50/50 to be exact. Keep in mind Floyd mentioned he dropped all the way down to 140 lbs and we all know weight loss is what can destroy a fighter.

    I know he's at proper weight now but usually when a fighter experiences rapid weight loss the damage is already done

    What do you guys think

    Yup. It's ruined him mentally.

    Ghost has a good chance of winning this. So ****ing dumb how jailtime is going to destroy this man's career.

    Seriously, so ****ing dumb. He's not beatable unless something like this **** happens.

    He seems to be all there now. I think he will out box Guerrero. And Floyd's great at fighting on the inside. But RG will bring it, should be a good fight

    Mayweather's at the age and point in his career where I'm expecting small declines every time he fights. The time spent locked up wont help matters, but I don't think we will see a drastic drop-off. Stranger things have happened, though.

    Well Floyd was never a guy who had Mike Tyson style killer instinct he's relying on angles timing speed etc but I am a little concerned because he has mentioned how his body was breaking down while he was incarcerated

    Physically? No.

    Mentally? If he means half the **** he says about his little ~90 day stretch, maybe.

    The jail sentence will not affect Void at all, Hell, he is fighting a featherweight!

    Physically: No.

    His age, not the 2 month stay in jail, will hurt him.

    Mentally: Nobody knows. From what he says, it seems to be significant enough to perhaps have some small effect.
