Did he look as fast vs marg as he did vs oscar/hatton/cotto? I think he is starting to decline, could also have been the higher weight and bad trainingcamp though. We cant really now at this moment.
He's not prime anymore but not too far from it. I say he has a good 2 years until we see a steep decline in him.
He could easily have been less motivated vs clottey and marg, the mosley fight might tell us little as well, if he easily beats him the win can look deceptive, Cotto fight he looked the best in at this weight.
Im worried though because he has so many people leeching on him that they will incourage him to keep on fighting when he is over the hill and he will become a name to beat and have on your resume. I much rather see him fight till late 12 then stop. mosley-bradley-berto-marquez stop. Something like that.
Nah, man. A slight dip in his speed is noticeable...the wars he has been in seem to be slowly catching up with him also. But it's pretty irrelevant at the minute, this just past prime version will not lose/come close to losing unless he moves up in weight again, or Mayweather steps up.
I tought he looked slower in the legs a little bit vs margarito compared to the Oscar fight for example, I assumed it was the weight and traingcamp more then him going past it. Your right at the moment nobody will beat pac even if he is slightly past it. He wont fight above 147 again and the only person I can think of that is capable of beating him is Mayweather.
I thought those training camp rumours were over-exaggerated to be honest (sell the fight more)...although he did show a little tiredness in the latter rounds, but that was almost definitely due to trying to keep a much bigger guy off of him with constant power punches.
