Mayweather is only one year older than Pacquiao.

Also, Mayweather's prime is truly hard to gauge because he had such a long prime.

It's arguable that he was in his prime at 130, but he was still formidable right up to 154.

Pacquiao was also another weight hopper, but I think he was at his destructive best at 147, although about 10 - 12 years ago.
