    Some people say he's 50 years old.

    Two years ago, Amir Mansour said he was 48. That would make him 50 now.

    What do you think?

    I think this is the first thread I have seen on here addressing this question.

    There no way someone who is 50 could move like that.

    40 seems fine, considering what we know of his amateur career.

    I'm not sure how old Methusaleh actually is or was, but sounds right to me. Ortiz may be wearing Depends on fight night.

    If he gets an offer from Canelo, we can assume he is over 60.

    wiki says he will be 41 in march.
    if you take a look on his amateur result on the same wiki(and you assume the info is correct), things kinda match..

    my guess would be that he is 41 or less.

    Could be as old as 51-52

    Is definitely older than 40-41 which is his official age.

    Your level of sarcasm is way too high for this place. Typical reader just assumes you’re not too bright and scrolls ahead, lol

    No way he's younger than me (I'm 41). I think he's between 43-45 realistically.

    His chronological age is about 50 but, due to his ridiculously extensive amateur career of a reputed 362 fights and his giant melon being a magnet for right hands and all the wars he was involved in the unpaid ranks, he's a lot older in ring years.

    Like I said, his massive melon has always been a magnet for right hands. Look what happens here when it dawns on Alexander Pov how easy it is for him to land with the right. He goes so right hand crazy he ends up landing more right hands than he throws and he even drops Ortiz with one of them at one point which the ref didn't call for some reason known only to him and the Cuban mafia.

    And his massive melon has lost none of its magnetism with age

    A 257lb Christina Hammer who wasn't exactly quick when in shape was lighting him up with right hands all night in his last outing
