A recent dropsonde into the southern eyewall measured 160 knots at 925 mb, which is not far above the ground since the surface pressure of the drop was 937 mb. The next dropsonde measured a surface pressure 928 mb with 35 knot surface winds, so the actual central pressure is probably a little lower than that. I don't know if there has been a really good central pressure fix yet.
