    ....So will we start to see his age?

    He looked a billion dollars against Marquez, is there any reason to believe he will have slipped a little since then?

    Most fans know when fighters get hit far too much they slip earlier in their careers.

    Can we still expect the same FMJ at 110% both mentally & physically?





    P.S...... please no *******s, you are not welcome here.

    I think Mayweather will look fine physically, and mentally be hungry to win. Mayweather seems to get irritated by all the talk about Pacquiao so he'll hope to shut up the critics with a win.

    Maybe Mayweather will be slightly declined physically, as you would expect from someone 33. On the other hand, that can easily go for Pacquiao as well, who's no spring chicken at 31 (by the time the fight occurs). I'm really surprised by Pacquiao's longevity, I would've thought he'd be on the decline by now.

    Not an issue with Floyd as he pretty much has a healthy lifestyle and stays in shape in between fights

    age wont be a factor. He hasn't been very active though (only 1 fight in the past 2 years). Pac is on fire right now.

    Floyd has considerably less mileage than the average fighter at 33. He has always been in shape and has been fighting regularly until his recent 1.5 yr gap. I don't believe for a second that Floyd didn't hit the gym during that period...so I don't think he will show much, if any, decline at all.

    I think as long as he makes the weight with ease than he is gonna look like the same Floyd

    Pacquiao is going to do the same thing with Floyd as he does with everyone...overwhelm him with his hand speed. Of course, PBF may handle it better, but will it be enough to earn him a win? I don't think so.

    LOL I doubt he'll perform differently. He will be the same Floyd Mayweather Jr.

    Mr T you are every where speaking for your boy. At least nobody can say you ain't consistent.

    I think FMJ will tear Manny up. I just wonder what it means for Manny's legacy?

    He looked great against Marquez, but he was in there with someone who was making him look great. Until he does fight Pacquiao then we won't know how much he lost from his "retirement". That being said, I still feel Matweather will be able to outbox Pacquiao, although I hope I'm wrong.

    Mayweather's style of fighting will allow him to keep fighting fresh and strong until his late 30's unless Pac beats him up

    haha hopkins is in his mid 40s and hes still in tip top shape...floyd being 33 will have absolutely nothing to do with the outcome of the fight
