Lets be honest. Floyd can fight till he's 40 and maybe beyond

Klitschko haters has also been mad for a long time.. And they'll continue to be mad for some time to come..

 

Easily from what we saw last night. Even when he noticeably fades, he'll have enough skill to be competitive with your average 'champion' e.g. Guerrero, Ortiz, Khan type fighters. It will take a hall of famer/ATG to beat him or else an opponent with a big size advantage.

 

If Floyd remains motivated he can fight for 6-7 years easily. He surely can lose but he will be competitive against top fighters even at his 40's.

 

He still has it. That shot fighter **** can get tossed right now. He lives the fighters lifestyle an that pays off

 

His bank account will still read zero so yes,he will be fighting in his 40's

 

Depends on his opponents.

 

if he tactically picks opponents like bhop does he can go on to 50

 

As long as he stays at 147, he should have few problems. Interested to see Devon or Kell against him someday.

 

This, I seriously doubt he can continue fighting elite opponents till 40, maybe opposition of the Robert Guerrero though.

 

I'm surprised that any Floyd fan would want to see him fight past 40. He's still a great fighter (and the best, pound for pound in the world) but there's no guarantee that he'll be able to keep winning at that age. Very few fighters have been able to do it. Even Hopkins had to take losses along with his victories.

I think Mayweather is clearly past his prime (not as fast, and his movements aren't as sharp) and he's only going to deteriorate with age. One thing he still does (when he's comfortable in the ring) is lower his guard, tempting the opponent in, so that he can draw their shots and counter. He did it to Guerrero, too, and at numerous points he was also twisting/swaying away from shots with his hands down as Guerrero's punches sailed through the space above or in front of him. This is fine when you have the reflexes and agility to pull it off, but when those reflexes fade he may just get caught with a big shot or two, and if it's a big puncher then he might even get into serious trouble.

At the moment he still looks very good in the ring, but I don't think he should fight past 40. He also places a lot of emphasis on how his health comes before the sport, so it makes more sense to retire and take less damage in sparring/matches.

 

i'm convinced that he could. will he stay undefeated til age 40+, idk, but he'll hold his own.

 

I agree, Floyd has plenty left and could go on beating top opponents.
Amazingly talented fighter, that deserves all the credit he gets.

 

Think your joking.
Floyd clearly beat another top opponent
