He may have done this the first and part of the second round, but he abandoned that strategy and started marching forward, which surprised the commentators. I'm not a huge Mayweather fan because I think he lacks the power needed to be called the best pound for pound. However, he's probably the best-conditioned fighter I've ever seen, he seems to find a way to always have the energy to outlast his opponents.
