Floyd Mayweather, at 38, could be the perfect target for Manny Pacquiao, the Filipino ring icon's trainer, Freddie Roach, said on Wednesday.
As Mayweather and Pacquiao turned out for their only joint news conference in the buildup to their May 2 mega-bout, Roach said the unbeaten Mayweather's vaunted defensive abilities are waning.
"His legs are little bit shot. He's slowed down quite a bit," Roach said, adding he believes Mayweather would have had a better chance of beating Pacquiao five years ago, when attempts to make the fight fell apart.
