    Well, here's one solid excuse already implanted into people's minds for if the super fight ever happens.

    Pac hasn't had a knockout in 5 straight fights. Don't think that's ever happened before. He's been showing signs of decline for a long time now.

    Yet he still beat Bradley easy, what does that say for Bradley (and Peterson/Khan)?

    A good way to tell whether a figher is slowing down is by looking at their foot mobility. Peak Pac was able to dart in and out like a rabbit. We didn't see that in his last 2 fights. The first thing to go as you start to lose something is explosion in your legs. And we are clearly seeing signs that both Pac and Floyd are slowing down physically.

    All jokes aside, it really does seem that way.

    He's slowing down, but he also may be fighting smarter.

    He is actually been fighting for 17 years, 10 years of which against top quality opposition.

    He is way beyond his shelf life..

    Legs are the first one to go.
