As the fight began, Paul took an offensive role and moved forward with his shots. He used his height and reach extensively to land his jabs and powerful right hands. Although Mayweather took control of the ring in the later rounds, ‘The Maverick’ didn’t hand him the initiative.

He kept coming up with his solid strikes and even put his defense to the test many times. The 26-year-old had substantial moments in the ring and this unquestionably turned out to be his best outing.

The internet sensation worked extremely hard for this fight and it was evident in his 8-round war against ‘TBE’. That said, looking back at his performance in this fight, Paul can only be happy and proud of his showing.
