    Are you vision impaired?

    He is quite obviously smaller, and you can see he has lost considerable weight.

    He looks sickly, anaemic even. He looks gaunt, it's obvious jail took it's toll on him.

    Maybe a touch, I am sure that even when Floyd isnt fighting he is either playing b-ball all day running and or at the boxing gym hitting the bag or the mitts. But hes been in jail for 2/3 months not doing all that, at most hes been doing pressups situps and a jog round the yard, and when you are a finely tuned athlete like floyd, in your mid 30's thats bound to have some kinda effect right?

    I guess he knows his body and he wont fight if he feels like he has seriously declined, he can probably still beat all the top boys like Canelo, Bradley, Pacquiao, but it would be a shame for a guy who takes pride in his defence and athleticism, to get in there and take pointless punishment when he has nothing to prove. From what I've said you would think I'm saying hes some old man with nothing left, well I'm not I'm just saying I dont think he will be the super fast durable cat reflex like fighter he was before..

    If he is sure he wants to fight again, I'd like just one last fight, a super fight vs Pacquiao would be the obvious choice, if not then Bradley or Cotto again.

    Canelo is a huge Jr Middlweight, if he wants to prove hes the best forget Floyd and Pacman, chase the big boys like Martinez etc, fighting a blown up little guys like Floyd or Pacquiao aint gonna mean **** now they are both at the end of there careers and he'll get little credit for it.

    Yeah I was actually thinking this before you even said it, but I wanted to see if anybody else had the same opinion.
