UD to Mayweather I feel. Will land with ease all night long, will close the gap when needed, will create space when needed, amazing ring generalship from him almost always.
I hope he isn't noticeably past it, I worry when pro athletes get up there in years and take absences from the sport and then think "I have another left in me". It often disappoints and makes us wish he didn't go back. Only danger to Floyd I feel is if he believes the skill gap is so vast he can take liberties and half asses the training and/or gets caught during the fight due to thinking he's so above Conor, a la Douglas/Tyson. Once in awhile, I still watch that fight. Amazing upset...
I'm a MMA fan, Conor fan, and a big Floyd fan, it's sad he gets so much crap from people. His demeanor is to self promote, which boxing relies on a lot, those kinds of antics etc. it's just part of the business. It's a shame he gets so much flack from people, he's really special. Conor is entering Floyd's domain, it's clear it's a crossover fight to generate interest in the sport of MMA etc. not a true boxing match. I believe it'll be a big financial success though, both initially and possibly over time for the UFC probably.
Many people will love to see Floyd perform once more, I know I'm excited for it. I thought it'd never happen again after Berto.
